Damnit! So many people are gonna want to start doin graffiti after they watch that movie!

Wow, this is gonna be one cheesey-ass movie! The plotline of the game is ridiculous, imagine a full-blown movie on it! Plus, so what if more people do graff? Why are some entitled to it and others aren't? It's putting art or messages on surfaces without permission. You don't need to be a rocket scientist or hold a degree to do it. Graff artists take themeselves waaaaaaaaay too seriously.

Because some people don’t get the message behind graffing. And its obvious you don’t get it. Its not just putting art on places without permission. It's apart of a culture and a lifestyle. We'll just have some ignorant bastards putting up gang signs. Not 2 say nobody will get the message but personally I like it being underground. In-plus if the cops find out its getting more popular, then its gonna be harder 4 the people who's been tagging and graffing to do their thing. I don’t mind if people do it but I do mind if people do it and don’t have a true respect for it.
