It's alright I guess. Now I see Domino's has jumped on the pasta ban wagon. I still like Pizza Huts Pasta better.

I saw it a couple of times and I did a WTH @ the commercial. He was "smacking it" and calling them playa hataz...IMO it was hip-hop overkill. I am glad they pulled it.

I'm glad they pulled it, although I loved how he resembled "Mr. Hanky" from Southpark. It would be funny in a cartoon, but not in a commercial.

Its still running where I live in southern Cali...plays about 6 times per hour sometimes back to back, in my opinion its no worse than some of the rappers out there that expect to be paid for the mess they sputter...it is annoying though but it beat that blasted WHITE GOLD milk commerical by a long shot. That $4.99 is pretty pricey for some pasta that don't even appeal to me on television. Then again...my daughter & soon to be son in law work for pizza hut(we get free pizza & whatnot) their pasta is great in fact, gonna try that bacon/macaroni & cheese pasta today

*BTW....to those who didn't know, not only is dominos pushing pasta now to compete with pizza hut...they also sell subs in some areas.... I guess they wanna get some of that money people spend at subway & quizno's. Next it'll be coffee to compete with starbucks*

I guess I don't see what the big deal is. Hip-Hop is all over the place, commercials, the mall, discount stores... why not pasta commercials?

They haven't pulled it in my area, they play it like almost 7 times a day, they took out the scene where the little noodle was spanking the air, but that's it. When I first saw it I was like... Okay?

No black folks should be eating Domino's anyway, they are big supporters of Bush
