Burger King Trolled McDonald’s Through a Movie!

Burger King referred to its arch-rival by using the clown in the preview of Stephen King's "IT" movie. 1 min


Hi marketing lovers! Today we will examine perhaps one of the most iconic of the Burger King – McDonald’s duel. ⚔️ The story begins with Stephen King’s book “IT” which was adapted into a movie and released for the second time. Those who watch will know that the main character of this movie is a “clown”. Burger King and the advertising agencies they worked with must have noticed this and created such an advertisement. And as you know, this wasn’t the first sarcastic ad of these two competitors. They also used ChatGPT to compete with each other through advertisements.
