[pt75bua]

Great campaign!! very creative!! congrats!

[NewboldCollege]

love it....

[petereuropa]

I love London! But do you know the shortest way to Elephant and Castle?

[IMAmyrose]

@petereuropa by tube tehe

[petereuropa]

@IMAmyrose Well, that's another philosophy. I wanted to go to Elephant & Castle by buss. And when I was a bit north of the city, I asked a couple, a gentleman and his elegant wife: "is this the shortest way to Elephant & Castle?" "Actully, I don't know? I'm from Bristol, you know.?"

"Ohh (?)"

Then I had to leave England. That was a pity!

[2muski]

@petereuropa

I'm surprised you actually met some English people in London.

[CoolThatSounds]

I got a photo of me took there :P

[cchuan911]

[Username7260]

Pure mediocrity.

[Absolutelyskanking]

haha jokes advert/video

[ThingsToChange]

Personally, as an American I loathe eating at McDonalds but will do it in London since real restaurants there are criminally over-priced.

[Tommieb86]

That is ridiculous, you can eat better than McDonald's if you're on a budget in London.

[slackdave]

yeah, but it's more of an effort. I think that's what these kinds of places have going for them. You know what you´ll get and what price. Finding that thai place on compton street that has a hughe bowl of soup for.. cheap.. is a bit of a hassle finding..

[dwarfgorn]

i had McDonalds for dinner 8 days in-a-road when i spent a month there

[MrJordanking95]

went 2day

[alll8233]

i had just been to there last week!!

[josiasvianna]

Simplismente criativo e eficaz....

[cubasjorge]

ptm ... nada como el primer mundo

[australmxster]

less is more!!

[rigogines]

hahaha, so intelligent! congratulations to the creatives that did this idea!

hope being there!

[definitivamento]

haha i wanna be there

[DanielCMM]

hahaahah i like ittttttt what a great advertising project!!

[redflame24]

- its an incredibly simple idea but hugely effective, one that draws in the people that notice what Ronald is up to, but people passing by, too. Even when they make it bleedingly obvious by displaying images of burgers, the punters are still lapping it up. Look at it, you mindless drones - theyre placing thoughts direct into your mind! Its effectively brainwashing in broad daylight and its just one more reason why you cant help but chew their cow:

[adajohns]

there must be a name for this type of advertising?...interactive?

[sbrylski06]

Genius. They just put advertisements in thousands of photo albums for a couple bucks. Brilliant marketing.

[cuteandnice12]

btw: ur title doesn't make any sense at all, it's supposed 2 b: 'picadilly's mcdonald', not the other way around. 'cause mcdonald is in picadilly, not the other way around:)

[mcdonaldspiccadilly]

Thanks again for all your comments. Unfortunately we've had to take a few down due to use of inappropriate language. Since the video is viewable by anyone, so are the comments, and we feel that it's not acceptable to allow adult language on a universal video. Hope you all understand. Thanks,

[BizarreReport]

Now Thats Fantastically Bizarre And Bizarre Report Approved

[Eddie455123]

Ya!

[garpstube]

LOL looks like this video has attracted the some haters who hide behind keyboards LMAO.

Oh don't bother with the comments I never look after my second post, I just have fun blocking :-) Have a nice day :-)

[strawberrysubmarine]

Nice idea, but disappointing it's McDonalds advertising...

[Eduardo151515]

THERE GETTING MORE ADVERTISING

[IvektFromMoldova]

Want-to-be-viral fail.

[JGAL95]

Want FREE games, xbox live, psn cards, wii cards, or microsoft points? Click on my name and sign up to the left. For all who think its bullshit, it isnt, the first part of the comment is to attract people, thats not even like 1% of what you can get with this website Its called Points2Shop. Watch the video Why Points2Shop? on my channel to learn how it works

[LordGryn]

relatively clever ad, too bad McDonalds is poisoning the whole world

[thisismichaelsmithtv]

check out the im on a boat remix on my page

[alehax27]

lol that's a smart way to advertise.

[SKATANsfv]

lmfao

true.

[ermac2222]

1.-copy and paste

2.-paste it in 2 different videos

3.. hold breath for 10 secs

4.- look at your hands

[fakespotter]

that was cool. mcd is still evil tough

[sslinaa]

lol people are so stupid

[tamilpride321]

excellent! the leaning tower of pisa was getting boring

[garpstube]

Funny, I'd like to try that.

insanemoe your an ass :-)

[insanemoe]

try it but you support that company. just wake up ass

[insanemoe]

this is for ignorants

[tamilpride321]

lol i feel sorry for you

[insanemoe]

the concept is great , the company is garbage,. I feel sorry for you man

[videocassette]

That cornpone "Don't Worry Be Happy" scat music is giving me the sh*ts.

[Aggiesig12]

Wow! Creative Juices were flowing free when they came up with that!

[okyesplease]

One day I will travel to London to see this Eighth Wonder Of The World and have my picture taken with it so that my children and my children's children can know that McDonalds is about more than just corn syrup and cheesefood. The food's not great, but the place isn't about that. It's an experience. It's a brand that stands for active lifestyles, family values, fun times, lattes without that "Oprah Markup" like other places, and most importantly, it stands for innovative advertainment like this.

[kiroyale]

perfect and so healthy too

[sultankinkari]

These people are idiots.

[greff]

Bravo!

This one will be very viral.

[derekonline]

Sheer brilliance! :)

Engage peoples' minds, fill them with positive emotions, and subtly display the McDonald's logo.

This is a marketing homerun!

[kicjebaja]

nice video :)

[Payzee101]

the best video I've seen on YouTube.

What's the music called? Great tune. No such thing as feeling down when you hear something like that.

[mcdonaldspiccadilly]

HI Payzee, The music title & Artist: Sunnyside C/O KPM Music. I hope this helps

[manhattanny]

it was designed by mcdonalds restaurant employees, there was a comp on our website

[codyxxxxxx]

this is completely note fake. im in the video between 25-29 seconds. out on a family trip to london and worked out the way the board works. we didnt even know that we was being recorded for quite a while.

[BooPoo1]

haaa, you're famous.

& i can second the fact that it's actually her between 25-29 secondss, i know herr. (:

[RichieSpenno]

lol you famous bellend

[brunelton]

very fun!

[mcdonaldspiccadilly]

Hi everyone and thanks for commenting.

Although there was a cameraman to capture people there on that day interacting, we found that once people saw others do it, and discovered what the idea was, they got involved without any prompting.

We dont expect people to get it right away, but we hope to see more and more people taking pictures at the sign in the future.

We also wanted to clarify that we didn't hire actors for this movie but filmed general members of the public on the day.

[zedio369]

that is the worst advertisment in the world

[eduardofuruga]

why ?

[eliaen]

Why? It is clever, engaging and fun. With a little branding on the side of it. There is no reason in the freakin' world, why this isn't good.

[RobTheBuilder]

Are you kidding me?

It's simple and clever and encourages people to engage with it in a fun way.

[metrizzo]

Those are some great actors!

[OnionTeaBoy]

I love this idea. Brilliant creative concept wth a really simple execution. I can see this becoming one of those must-do-tourist-things that takes off virally.

As they say... I'm lovin' it!

[mtgentry]

Neat idea but I wonder how many of these people were prompted to do this by the cameraman. Would they have interacted with it instinctively if they were by themselves?

[lesoul]

well I think tey are acting that way because they want theit pic to be taken with the electronic props... Now, what I did notice is the lack of obese people (that maybe because from 2005 on MCD's want to show a "fit , healthy, active" image....)

I see this as a great opportunity for Culture Jamming... (G00gle it, the concept is very cool)

[icarus555]

EXACTLY! Who would even notice that on their own?
