it was clearly a draw.

excerpts from a "Das Racist review quote-off" contest between two friends:

“Over a simple, unadorned laptop beat, Vazquez calls out, “I’m at the Pizza Hut, I’m at the Taco Bell—I’m at the combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell.” Suri answers back with the same words. This goes on, unchanged, for a long time. Eventually, it emerges that Suri and Vazquez can’t find each other and may be at different Pizza Hut / Taco Bell franchises.”

“Once you realize that the song is a grass roots cry for help from America's oppressed proletariat, it will become obvious that the Combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell is an extended metaphor for the corporate abuses of laissez-faire economics. Essentially this song is a continuation of the dialogue most famously presented by Marx and Engels in the original Manifest der Kommunistischen Partei. What these young men have done here is nothing short of revolutionary. I applaud them.”

a winner was not declared.
