Earl's Rib Palace - Let's All Go To Earl's

Here's a spot I directed in 2005 for a barbecue restaurant in Oklahoma City. Note the pop culture reference to the old "Let's All Go To The Lobby" film ad.

Suddenly I want some ribs.

[Mecajet]

You ripped off something that was funny vintage and made a shitty parody. not good.

I remembered this back in 2005 when I was 18. I wanted to go to earl's so bad and enjoy what they have there.

[Hendrixzepp5]

This is a joke. The animation is terrible, it's not funny at all, and whoever was doing the sound mixing was probably high on the job.

[nuttierthanthou]

the commercial is just like the restaurant: 'just ok'.

[dilemma321]

same here!

[pookoof]

the whole thing screams white trash

[ElZomboFantasma]

Nice. This joint was mentioned, along with dozens of other rib houses in Mojo Nixon's song 'BBQ USA'.

[Looneymegaman]

Yeah. A cheap knockoff. And it ain't funny. I'd rather go to the lobby, for crying out loud!

[InvaderZim897]

Well, I'm sorry for my lack of positive statements. I like the song. That's always the important part when it comes to ads like this, too, so that's all you need. I guess your crappy cel animation goes unnoticed because of this.

[Looneymegaman]

Ugh... the singing is terrible.
