Title: New Domino's Commercial = KQ6?
Post by: EdLoen on Mon 19/02/2007 02:04:11
I know I've been inactive, but I figured this commuity would appreciate this observation.

So I'm sitting here watching TV and a new Domino's Pizza commercial came on and there's these three guys sitting down discussing what aspect of the pizza is the best.  They all also have exaggerated features of the senses.

-One guy has a big mouth, arguing the taste is the best
-One guy has a big nose, arguing the smell is the best
-One guy has big eyes, looking at the cheese...

And lastly there's one guy out in the yard with big ears overhearing the conversation. He says that it sounds good.

Immeadiatly I thought: Isle of Wonder, King's Quest 6!

I'm just wondering if anybody else has seen this commercial yet, and made this connection.

If this is a useless thread please excuse me.  I just thought You guys might be interested...

...And accually, Before posting this I decided to look up on You tube to see if the commercial is there.  Sure enough:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MxR3CKzXm_s

So if you havn't seen the commerical yet (Or in a different country where this commercial doesn't exist) you can see for yourself.

The only one they're missing is a guy with big hands...

I've been sick at home with the flu for the past week, and I swear, this commercial is on at least three times during each commercial break. I HATE HATE HATE this commercial.

Haha, that's one of my favorite adventure games and I totally recognize the connection. Good work.

I saw an ad that had an octopus and it reminded me of Day of the Tentacle. I also saw an ad that had a girl in it and it reminded me of the Laura Bow games because she is a girl. I also saw an ad that had things in it, which reminded me of Space Quest 3 because that had things in it too.

First let me say, YouTube rules.

Secondly, that's a pretty good connection you've drawn there.

Perhaps those gnomes are from some existing fairy tale and both drew inspiration from the same?

Listen up, DG. There are two kinds of people in this world. Those who piss me off, and those who piss me off even more. Stop being both of them.

QuoteListen up, DG. blah blah blah blah blah yadda yadda insert some bullshit here etc etc blah blah blah blah

Let's see. You started getting pissy with me after I made a joke about this thread's subject. Sure, you're right, it was sarcastic. Naughty, naughty DG! What have we told you about being sarcastic! No ice cream for dessert!

I mean, seriously, lighten up!

at least darth mandarb appreciates my cutting-edge, topical and sometimes mysteriously sexy sense of humour

Oh DG... If only I could tell you how much I really love you. For someone who spends most of his time being a sarcastic, yet usually correct twat... You'd think you could detect my own light humor directed at you. Oh well, guess I'm not as good as you yet.

speaking of boners, I read an article about octopus personality and intelligence, and one boneless dude was called Leisure Suit Larry, how's THAT for a Sierra connection?

I often dream of what a world controlled by DGMacphee would be like.

I imagine it would be a lot like this one... But with a slight increase in penis and fart jokes.

Wow, a whole thread dedicated to me..oh wait, yeah, that Domino's commercial during the Super Bowl made me hungry for pizza.

I thought it was quite clever. I've had their pizza, and the last time I had it, the crust was paper thin. No thanks.
