nondeplumage: You're making sure that I understand that unicorns don't exist in order to say that they're exaggerating something. Yeah. It's also animated. People aren't really cartoons. And this changes the message how?

And you might want to check Banksy's views before you assert that this is nothing more than the manifestation of a case of the Mondays for the animators.

lukaszthegreat: How is representing animators who work long hours in shitty conditions for low pay BUT in one of most advanced first world countries with social securities and standard of living in top five as sweatshop workers an insult?

from what i quickly could piece together from wiki there is nothing particular wrong with them. Standard anti-capitalism, anti-authority etc.

what's wrong with his believes? can you direct me to something more substantial than wiki please?
Shades of EA style shenanigans, only with Fox. Is this the part where I raise a fist in the air?

lukaszthegreat: Yes. This idiot is saying that THEY USE UNICORNS to make dvds.... by using their horns to make holes in dvds.

Jesus christ.

Metaphor? exaggeration? Symbolisms?
Do you know them?

You realize these so called offensive animators were actually animating this, right?

I have no idea who Bansky is, but I thought that intro was hilarious because it is metaphorical hyperbole etc.

I didn't see anything wrong with it. It was a joke, with some social commentary. It's completely satirizing the portrayal of sweatshops, using hyperbole to poke some fun; who doesn't see the absurdity of a unicorn poking holes in DVDs or a severed dolphin head being used to seal packages?
