Excluding the residents who 'stole' the Sphinx...


I hate nearly everyone in this.

Hahahaha I had similar thoughts. Art and the art scene are always very self-aggrandizing, but their just reveling in this thing they enjoy.

Que Sera Sera

I liked the New Yorkers who went on the Banksy scavenger hunts. It was exciting and fun to watch.

I really liked this movie. The art was really good...some great pieces. I did kinda frown when they said more people were involved in making the art than just one person. It would be interesting to know more.

I REALLY wanted to punch all the people stealing the art though...in that sense, the movie really got me mad.

Will probably go read up on Banksy now..

The ones on the scavanger hunt were deff NOT NY'ers..for the most part all involved were not native NY'ers.
Defacing someones graffitti or TAG is known in the graphiti world as marking ones work with disrespect...T O Y M A K E R.... To be exact.
BANSKY is a wealthy Brit who came to the USA's,actually WORLDS GRAPHITI CAPITAL-NYC to ride on the coattails of Basquait,Harring and Warhol.....

You wanted to punch the broke dudes who were losing their business, for taking some ugly sculpture? They were the only people in this movie that didn't suck!
