Title: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Ash on February 09, 2004, 08:26:15 PM Ok, couple of questions here.
Have any of you here seen the new Quizno's Sub commercial with the two "things" wearing black hats and singing about bringing a coupon in to get a dollar off any sub? What the heck are those things!? One sings while the other plays a guitar. I got close to the TV the last time it played to get a better look and it appears to be a dead mouse's body. What is that? The commercial is funny but disturbingly creepy in a weird way. Anyone? Post Edited (02-09-04 19:55) Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: jmc on February 09, 2004, 08:41:26 PM That commercial drives me nuts....the annoying song they sing keeps getting stuck in my head. So I guess it's effective.
No clue what those things are supposed to be, but I'd love to hear the pitch for this one at the ad agency. Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: raj on February 09, 2004, 08:47:22 PM They look like some sort of small, tree dwelling mammals. The eyes and mouths I've got no idea where they're from. Bizarre ad, because the creatures don't look like something you'd want as a mascot, and the song is not a nice melody. But I like it because of all that. Certainly a lot better than that stupid "oven mitt" campaign.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Brock on February 09, 2004, 10:15:53 PM They're from the same guy who did the singing kittens for VH1. Go to www.rathergood.com and click on "We liuke the moon" for the sponge-monkeys original appearence.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Ash on February 09, 2004, 10:24:05 PM Hey I found a video of them on that site.
Hilarious! http://www.rathergood.com/moon_song/ That's some weird s**t! And their teeth! Yikes! Post Edited (02-09-04 21:25) Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: wickednick on February 10, 2004, 12:16:38 AM I hate that f**king commercial. Who in the hell thought that it would be a good idea to have a couple of "things" sing a s**ty song about subs. Honestly I don't even want to go to Quizno's now because if I hear that song in there I'll destroy place.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Eirik on February 10, 2004, 12:42:25 AM "the annoying song they sing keeps getting stuck in my head. So I guess it's effective."
No, it would be effective if you kept going to Quiznos and buying subs after seeing it. Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: JohnL on February 10, 2004, 02:33:45 AM Looking at them makes me lose my appetite!
I don't even know if there's a Quiznos around here. I just go to Subway and then put it in the microwave for about 45 seconds. Not quite toasted, but the cheese melts and gives it a hot sandwich taste. Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: trekgeezer on February 10, 2004, 11:48:33 AM Makes me not want to eat there.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: StatCat on February 11, 2004, 11:18:32 PM Disturbing, reminded me of that website that makes fun of retarded people with similar weird songs.

I rememeber those lil dudes from the site. but wtf is up with quizno's ad agency. blatantly trying to drive quizno's into bankruptcy.

Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Dunners on February 12, 2004, 12:12:31 PM ok I will say this, I hate the commercial witha passion and I hate those creepy f**king things, what the f**k are they suppossed to be anyways!? They look like fuzzy testicles with sombrero's...or worse, tribbles with mouths.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Newt on February 12, 2004, 01:32:25 PM Those things are supposed to make us want to EAT????
I found myself reaching for the phonebook to look up the number for the Health Inspector... Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: acacia on February 12, 2004, 02:04:07 PM Okay...yes, they are freaky little "things", but damnit, why can't I get that f**kING song out of my head?? Does anyone know a web site where you can watch the commercial? My boyfriend is wanting to see them, he keeps missing the new one...
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: daveblackeye15 on February 12, 2004, 02:47:12 PM We like tha moon!
I like in the second commerical how the singer says "bewareof papercuts" Kind of amusing. It may not make you want to eat at Quizno's but it's difficult to forget it. -CRAPTASTIC!!!- Post Edited (02-12-04 19:56) Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: frannie on February 12, 2004, 02:49:08 PM the quiznos company site has the commercials on it
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Evil Matt on February 13, 2004, 03:47:20 AM I seem to be in the minority here, as I LOVE those commercials. I like the fact that someone had the balls to go to the Quizno's execs and say "Here is the most horrible monstrosity to ever grace the screen singing an awful song. It shall be your new mascot", and I like the fact that the Quizno's execs said "Let's run with it". Truth be told, it's way better than that stupid Taco Bell dog, or the Budweiser frogs.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Bgrade on February 14, 2004, 10:40:15 AM I love these comercials also. I recent poll of some of my friends is split..
Three love them two hate them. I think the commercial wins regardless of you liike it or hate it. Better than all the commercials that you have no idea what they are for. Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Deej on February 14, 2004, 12:48:04 PM They Got a Pepper Bar!! C'mon...that's funny s**t.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Lee on February 15, 2004, 01:59:41 AM The people in charge of Quizno's ad campaigns must be mentally imbalanced. Their comercials are just way to out there.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Neon Noodle on February 15, 2004, 10:08:53 AM In any advertising medium, even annoying characters or jingles will stick in people's minds, making them more likely to choose them over the competition at a conscious/subconscious level.
From scrubbing bubles to Monchichi's, this has been proven time and time again. I'm sure the singing chicken strips of Quizno's are only the tip of the iceberg. Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: raj on February 15, 2004, 12:12:49 PM Well put. And now how many of us are aware of Quizno's? The ad has raised our awareness of Q's, and gotten us thinking about the restaurant.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: JohnL on February 15, 2004, 07:43:40 PM >In any advertising medium, even annoying characters or jingles will stick in
>people's minds, making them more likely to choose them over the competition >at a conscious/subconscious level. It's also possible for advertising to backfire with some people. When FX started showing ads for The Shield, I thought it looked mildly interesting (I'm not really a big fan of cop shows). 3 months and 6000 commercials later, not to mention the huge ads plastered down in the corner of the picture after EVERY commercial (usually after they'd just shown 2-3 different commercials for The Shield), I couldn't stand hearing about the show and vowed never to watch even a single episode of it. I haven't either. Also, even though I don't remember what cereal it was now (Raisen Bran?), that commercial with the disgusting woman opening the door as the guy is delivering milk and inviting him in for breakfast, made me gag every time I thought of eating that cereal. Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Dunners on February 15, 2004, 10:21:41 PM seeing that commercial makes me want to rip my hair out, scream and go order a pastrami sandwitch from Togo's, while wearing nothing but a sock on my ding dog, covered in whipping cream while singing " go, go power rangers'.
So if any of you guys need a laugh just keep an eye on the news in the next 15 min. Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Ed on February 17, 2004, 08:02:54 PM I think the ad is kind of creative. To be honest, I really don't like the idea of my food being pitched by something that looks like the 2nd grade class pet after Billy forgot to take it home for Christmas Break. Call me Mr. Picky. I guess.
-Ed Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: dont worry bout it on February 20, 2004, 03:41:01 PM go to google and search for "we like the moon" and there's a clip with those two doing a skit. Quizno's got it from that.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: I luv dolma on February 20, 2004, 11:20:19 PM I hate that commercial. I too asked myself, what the heck is that? And why do they sound so awful?
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: I luv dolma on February 20, 2004, 11:35:27 PM You know how M&Ms sells its product by having acctual M&Ms speaking and talking in funny skits. Got to admit, their commercials are amusing.
As for Quizno's, I think its their way of saying they put dead mice in their sandwitches! LET US BEGIN THE REVOLUTION AGAINST QUIZNO'S! DO NOT EAT THERE! EAT EVERWHERE ELSE! Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: hamstring on February 21, 2004, 02:31:30 AM Man...I am done with the sandwiches after seeing this commercial..I kinda liked Quizno's sandwiches earlier, hate to see this, the commercial has freaked me away from Quizno's.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Dropo on February 22, 2004, 04:48:14 PM That is one of the worst commericals I have ever seen. It sucks!

Are they saying that the m&ms are alive? Are they telling us to go ahead and eat their living creatures? Don't turn my food into living things and then expect me to want to go eat it. Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Brother Ragnarok on February 23, 2004, 02:28:16 PM I just finally saw this thing last night during Adult Swim. I have a new favorite commercial. Seriously, how can you not like it? One of the greatest commercials in recent years, easily.
Brother R Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Brother Ragnarok on February 23, 2004, 06:19:01 PM That was an episode of Futurama.
Brother R Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: raj on February 23, 2004, 06:51:32 PM I may have subconsciously gotten it from them. Don't recall having seen that episode, though.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Marty on February 23, 2004, 09:22:07 PM I don't understand what is so "funny" about trying to disgust your audience. It reminds me of people who resort to bathroom jokes to shock you because they don't have enough imagination for real humor. I've been to Quizno's in the past, but never again. The mental association is just too disturbing.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: saintgabriel on February 24, 2004, 12:49:14 AM They look like a couple of mice that fell into the meat preparation machine, and ended up in someones sandwitch. I have never been to Quizno's, and the thought of finding a dead mouse in my sandwich will keep me from ever going to one.
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Evil Matt on February 24, 2004, 01:50:50 AM Apparently it's you, me, and like, two other people. I can't understand why people hate it so much either. It's infinitely funnier than stupid crap like the Taco Bell dog or those gay ass Coca-Cola bears...
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: lisa on February 24, 2004, 02:11:29 AM man, that is one of the funniest commercials ive seen in a long time, you all have to appreciate it from a ha----larious point of view, and i dont mean drugs!
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: jason Rice on February 24, 2004, 09:50:28 AM to: all the people who respond to this
why is everyone all upset about this? all it is is a place trying to sell their product. To all the people who complain about animal rights, they probably didnt kill them, they were just pictures found by the people at Quizno's. I dont blame them for anything, and neither should anyone else.( well, you can complain when you have your own fast food company.) RALPH NADER FOR PRESIDENT, hey give him a break, there were more third parties in florida that could have taken 500 votes, such as the Independents, Reform, American Nazi, Libritarians, Muslims, And George Bush _jason Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Susan on February 24, 2004, 07:17:31 PM Quizno's accomplished it's task. A company's greatest achievement in making a commercial is for it to be memorable (whether good or bad) enough that is is constantly being talked about. That's free advertising and good promotion
happy fat tuesday ;-) Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Glen on February 24, 2004, 10:50:12 PM I have never been to Quizno's but should try it. At least I know its not pigeon in the chicken salad (but what is it I ask).
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Mark L. on February 24, 2004, 11:28:40 PM Ugh. Just a horrible commercial. They look like some sort of birth-defected aborted rodent fetus. This is supposed to make me hungry? This is supposed to make me eat there? Yikes.
However, I think a lot of people in their teens and early 20s will mistake these ads which--were just kind of thrown together and not thought out--for "creativity." Quiznos will get some good press on it, and that's what they want. Me, I'll be staying away. Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Brother Ragnarok on February 25, 2004, 12:06:32 AM I'm in my early 20's, and I don't think the ad is some kind of artistic tour de force, if that's what you mean. But it's strange, and I find it funny in an off-beat, probably shouldn't really be funny but I think it is regardless sort of way.
Brother R Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Jamtoy on February 25, 2004, 10:43:37 AM Looks like others have asked the same question Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Candice G. on February 27, 2004, 02:07:41 AM That ad was hilarious! I thought those two "things" were rats at first, but now, I really don't know. Ok OK...so they are pretty ugly looking, but you have to admit that the jingle is catchy, and the commercial is popular.Brother Ragnarok wrote:

Hey, my husband has drawn a picture of the little guy's, and we have added it to our family portrait's in the hall. We were the first one's in our area to appreciate the commercial. We live in a very small town,(pioneer, ca.); and no one seemed to know what we were talking about. We have alway's been one step ahead of everyone else, when it come's to fads. Bring back the commercial!! We would all sing it together. Our 2 Boy's, and Mom and Dad. It sure made us smile each time we saw it... I know, most people in our area think we are just a litle off, too..

Either way, I have friggin' nightmares about those things. I can watch every single scary movie known to man, but I have never had a nightmare about anything I watched...until now. The Quizno dead monkey/hamster/gerbil is a sin against God himself and must be stopped. Before they run amok and start eating us.

Title: Finally ate at Quizno's Post by: raj on April 19, 2004, 02:48:14 PM over the weekend. Had a meatball sandwich. The sandwich was pretty good, the prices comparable to Subway, and the store itself seemed nicer that Subway.

Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Irrational Exuberance on April 21, 2004, 11:06:38 PM Yayyyyy, new commercial according to the Quizno's web site, big joy is in my heart! But I haven't seen it even though they have another commercial going for the same deal

I think the things' bodies are hamsters but where did they get those teeth...and the Napoleon hat! I notice that the 'normal' Quizno commercial is shown on network. I've only seen this one on Comedy Central.
I would patronize Quizno's solely based on them having the guts to do this spot. Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Taylor on April 29, 2004, 09:39:57 PM I LOVE that comercial!!! it is hilarious in a creepy way! it also has a radio that i have memorized "we could be rats we could be gerbals but we look like singing roadkill!" *splat* its hilarious!! i love quiznos but it kinda creeps me out when i saw the rat/hamster/gerbal/road kill was singing in the oven CREEPY yet HILARIOUS

Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Drew on June 15, 2004, 08:04:40 PM w00t... that's a great commercial.... those are called spong monkeys.......... some guy who owns www.rathergood.com created them and eventually quizno's discovered it and LOVED it.... so it's a commercial... and it's a hamsters body...... with human 7 year olds mouth... and pictures of fake eyes!
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: daveblackeye15 on June 15, 2004, 10:36:06 PM Thanks Drew! You brought back this Topic! Now we got a chance to hit at the big 100! Come on now let's try!
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: Evan3 on June 16, 2004, 02:41:01 AM Wow, this topic seems to bring great angst on this board. In any case, I am a HUGE fan of toasted subs and LOVE the spounge monkeys (not so sure about the wolf tits though). I hope the Spounge Monkeys face off against the Budweiser frogs.... But who would win?
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: raj on June 16, 2004, 10:27:29 AM The ferret. He'd wait until either the frogs or the sponge monkeys exhausted themselves destroying the other and then swoop in and mop up the floor with the other. Now, would the ferret then be able to defend himself against the Taco Bell Chihuahua?
Title: Re: OT: Quizno's Sub Commercial Post by: daveblackeye15 on June 30, 2004, 06:40:36 PM Hey, I think we should let some first time callers reply to this GREAT topic. Come on out guys.
