Holiday Inn's Meat is Missing

holiday_inn_philip_michael_thomas.jpg

Newsforce's Dana Todd isn't a fan of the Holiday Inn Meat you Maker banner campiagn currently running on Slate. He writes:

"Ok, I'm frustrated with this. See attached ad, running on Slate right now. Note the potential misspelling "Meat your maker". Hmm, puzzling. Mousing over to expand the rich ad got me no more info about meat or what it had to do w/this professor guy. Clicked the link, sat through ridiculous talking head, still no meat."

Todd goes on, writing, "Can they just not spell, or is there some mystery being unfolded regarding meat or mastery or anything of any consequence? Driving me nuts. I'll probably have to take a valium tonight ;-)"

Yes, after watching, we might need a Valium as well. But, we're still a fan of Philip Baker Hall.

Did I miss the one with Philip Michael Thomas?

I just see Philip Baker Hall.

They should bring back those 3 business guys. That stuff was funnier.

What a Z-z-z-zzzzzz! They're trying to attract business travelers with an exact duplication of a boring lecture. Who's gonna sit still for it – except ad critics on blogs like these?

"campiagn"?

Was that intended as well?
