Why is Godzilla (GINO) being used in Doritos commercials?

[The Lumberjack]

I saw a commercial where Godzilla from the 1998 US movie is shown eating an 18-wheeler full of Doritos. Why use an unsuccessful movie in your ad 8 years after the flick bombed?

 

[Slipknot]

Take it back! Eveyone loved that movie. I think everyone loved the soundtrack even more with Puff Daddy's "Come With Me' song where he used Led Zeppelin's "Kashmir" for the "beat." Godzilla eating Doritos is a fabulous marketing ploy.

Because the 98' Godzilla movie still has yet to make it's money back.

I dunno. Direct TV is using Ferris Bueller's Day Off and Twister.

P.S. Dip Shiddy's fans are so dumb that I had to personally spell-check those lyrics after I looked 'em up. lol

 

[Slipknot]

They have a thread over at IMDB under the "Godzilla" 1998 movie going here if anyone wants to look at that.

 

[The Lumberjack]

Yeah . . . they're like rebooting Rawzirra in Japan, or wherever . . .

They still put out classic "Guy in Suit" Godzilla flicks there that are hugely successful, so it doesn't make sense that they would ever touch this flick again.

That was a great song. Puff Daddy actually used the background right and made a great song.

Also as an answer to the early question. Godzilla is a world famous character. Everyone knows who he is an because of his notorious appetitie who better to use as a spokesperson for your food. It works well. That evrsion is the newest version maybe it was easier to get a hold of and use than the old Godzilla Im not sure exactly why they'd use that version. I'd most likely have used the updated but still classic style Godzilla from Godzilla 2000.

Hahahaha.

 

[DV8]

okay, I'm not having much luck here . . . I think Lumberjack accidentally turned on a VHS tape of some shyt he recorded back in '98, and that's how he saw the commercial . . . let me keep looking though

 

[jaguarr]

lol i saw that

Would you look at that
That was almost a haiku
How clever of you

I would not care to view a 'thread' on that site. EVER. I'll be content living in suspense . . .
