Why Domino's Pizza instead of Godfathers pizza?

Postby Razorsharp » Tue Mar 23, 2010 4:39 pm

So while watching the Goonies i said to myself Why did chunk's family give him a domino's Pizza box instead of a godfather's Pizza box? Mouth was referencing Godfathers Pizza in the beginning in Mikey's Living room.Do you think Donner or Spielberg though that everyone probably couldn't relate to a godfather pizza box and just went with a more household logo in domino's? I mean didn't godfathers pizza do some promotional glasses for the movie and i don't recall domino's doing any promotional stuff....thoughts?

I seem to remember reading something about this... that at the last minute they had to use Dominoes as Godfathers did not want to sponsor or be involved with advertising.

Aaaah, I got this the wrong way round, I think this was part of what I had read.

Check this post out The Pizza brand which was 'DUBBED OUT'?!!

This one might be of interest.

I.m surprised no one has mentioned the Domino's ad on top of this thread.

There's a Papa John's ad up there right now. LOL. The plot, or is it the sauce thickens.
