Wendy’s. Tree-Kicking. Revolution. What?

wendys.png

We should start by saying that by the time we got to watching this ad for Wendy’s by Saatchi & Saatchi, we were already a bit out-of-sorts because the eagle in this Unicast ad kept squawking. Eagles are just generally really distracting. They are exactly the opposite of ninjas.

Anyway, this Wendy’s piece involves communal tree-kicking and a burger-inspired epiphany by a guy wearing the Wendy’s girl wig. We’re not really sure why. And if it does nothing else, the spot decently demonstrates that people who do stupid crap as a team will probably band together behind something equally inane.

To be fair, though, we’d rather watch this ad than another I’m-Lovin’-It rehash.
