Godamned marketing. We're a world defined by our symbols rather than one where we define our symbols. You know? Whatever happened to creativity and artistic expression? The value of expression. Now there's no value unless it can be plastered with a Burger King logo.

Meh. (n)

I get where you're coming from RA, but come on. Indy hasn't really been in the spotlight very much in the past 20 years. And this whole ordeal is going to come and go pretty quick... at least, this level of marketing will.

Besides, advertisements have never worked on me anyway. It doesn't sadden me to see the Burger King dressed up as Indy. I think it's kind of funny.

Doesn't mean I want to go buy a whopper.

Good point No Ticket , I really dont go to BK much now and a whopper is not going to taste better because of Indy King or what ever they will call him. I do look forward to the BK figures, My kid is going to eat alot of Kids meals. Ok , ok , I'm going to eat alot of kids meals :rolleyes: Maybe they will let us buy the figures like they did for the star wars bk line (y)

Do we know for a fact toys or other promotional items are being offered?

USA Today has an article on the marketing for Indiana Jones and it only mentions an "Indy Whopper" at Burger King.

? Burger King. Starting May 12, BK will offer an Indy Whopper with two burger patties, spicy sauce, bacon and pepper-jack cheese. It's an "adventurous" concoction Indy would favor, says Brian Gies, vice president of marketing.

Stores already have posters of BK's King character dressed as Indiana Jones, including a leather jacket, fedora and whip.

"It's a powerful movie franchise," Gies says. "There's a legion of fans out there for Indiana Jones."

That clip on whip is amusing.

I'm kind of shocked they didn't go with the super deformed style that they did with the SW figs a few years back...Oh well...
