Has this been discussed already? I haven't gone through the whole thread. I'm as liberal as the next guy and probably more so, but I hate graffiti, especially the ridiculous tagging business. I didn't feel bad at all when, at the end, Zach's mural is being painted over. :)

I can see both sides, I really liked his mural, but you know if he had asked to paint it right there, it might have worked out better for all invoved.

I can't help it. I felt really sorry for Zach when his mural was painted over. I thought it was sad. Some of those downtown buildings are sooooo ugly. Any splash of color at all is an improvement. I like it when people paint murals on those old ugly buildings, but yeah, it probably would have been better if he had asked first. And what's up with that "cat puke" brown color? Of all the colors to choose for a building! :laugh:

I liked his mural too, but getting it painted over by whoever owns the wall it was painted on had to be expected. I realize that graffiti can give an area a sense of urban bohemia and all that, but most are not exactly works of art, at least not in my neighbourhood.

"A desperate filmmaker with no stars, budget or crew resorts to filming his roommates and ends up with the only Hollywood success story caught on camera as it really happened."
"Because this project is categorized as being in production, the data is subject to change; some data could be removed completely."
Or maybe a goof?
If it's real--seems like it might be fun!
