I was inspired to create the "The Dark Mcdonald" after my wife called me and told me that our kids school teachers would be helping at Mcdonalds this evening to raise money for some cause. She wanted to take the kids there and get some food so the kids could see their teachers. I found it ironic how Mcdonalds was funding a cause yet was using school teachers to promote it, further promoting their own business to children. The school was in a sense supporting kids going their to eat, even if the food is unhealthy just to fund another cause.

Brilliant!

And shame on schools that sell out to McD's for fundraising ~ "he who pays the piper calls the tune."

Man that's scary for sure.....

You should add in an alternate version like the movie posters had with red markered Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha-Ha-Happy Meals all around the picture.

  Ah good one.
  
  Man, I can't wait for The Dark McDonald to come out. Grimace can be two-face, Hamburglar could be one of the guys who got killed in the bank and They'd have to make Uncle O'Grimacey a cop in this one. They always need an Irish Cop on the force. "O'Grimacey! Put the shotgun down!"

Now I like that a lot. Very cool. And what it sez is very true. You need to make a bunch of these posters up and sneakily place them on the walls of hundreds of McDonalds restaurants or movie theaters.

I love it, although we mustn't let "The King" get away unscathed. Surely his meatnormous breakfast sandwiches have helped find many an innocent child's way to the emergency room.

  Didn't BK have a four patty super stacker burger?

  I once had a three patty burger from Wendy's and swore I would never eat one again.

  I had one of those one time. Broke my jaw. Before that quad stacker the biggest Chain burger I had was the "Double Big Mac" back in the 90's.
  
  By the way, Anyone remember the dumb stacker commercial with the midgets that hated veggies. No wonder they never grew.

  Stack it high though guy..... Ah, Midgets are such whores. You could set up auditions for a midget to dress up like a pickle and wrestle a bear and there'd be a line of them waiting outside your door.

  I'm just wondering, Would the second layer of bacon go ontop or in the middle?

  How in the heck would you be able to chomp through an inch thick layer of bacon?
  
  That's my question.
  
  I might do that once, but I'm pretty sure I'd throw up, and I'm sure that wouldn't be pleasant.

Very well done, if you could make such a movie, I would buy a ticket to the cinema, no doubt about it. And I'm not joking ;-)))
