I wish Banksy would go away, great he made some weird structures out of fake food to show what happens to animals so what I'm not retarded or a vegetarian I know where my food comes from and what it gets made into.
I love Banksy.
But that's so morbid and depressing.
Kittens, pandas and unicorns, all that's happy in the world :(

huh..?
I find this a little pretentious if he meant it as commentary.
I found it hilarious otherwise.
Uh, dark much? I mean, I know it's a joke, but holy shit.
I love the animation, but it was pretty sad.

Obviously doesn't know who Banksy is.
He's a British street Artist, political activist and painter, and absolutely amazing.
As far as I know, he... doesn't do food art.
fuck the man, maaaaan
like, corporations and the gubberment and like, man
The video didn't stop me from getting a boner.
Banksy is an attention whore.
I bet he won't like the attention he is going to recieve, though.
[sp]Lawsuits if you did not figure.[/sp]
I don't know if it fits with the whole... lighthearted theme of the show, but I found it really artistic and funny. Idiots getting offended over nothing [I]AS USUAL[/I].
I've never heard of this Banksy character, but I like him already.

I don't get all of the hate. The intro was meant as satire. S.A.T.I.R.E.
I will say though, the utter amount of hate and anger this is stirring warms me to the core. I love seeing people squirm over satire. Love.It.
I'm surprised this actually aired, it seems to me as if he was making a point against the simpsons and they took it and actually made it into an intro.
It was a great title sequence. Who cares if you don't like Banksy?

Well, The Simpsons tend to make jokes about Fox and even themselves. They've admitted to using Korean animators in their earlier seasons, so why not air this?
It was kind of cool, yeah.
I watched it last night before reading anything about it. I wasn't surprised or offended by it. I thought it was just another (albeit excellent) couch gag. I think it fits Simpsons and reminded me of this:

Banksy is one of my idols and as a graffiti writer he's is an inspiration to many of us
**especially the ones who use stencils like me
[QUOTE=BBKF;25346573]I caught this intro last night while watching Simpsons. I saw Banksy scribbled on the walls around the town and thought that was neat and then the forced labour shit just confused the fuck outta me and came from nowhere.
I didn't know Banksy made this, I kinda thought it was a shout out or something.[/QUOTE]
It was revealed recently that most of the show's animation is outsourced to S.Korea.
well that was.. interesting
Who cares if it's a bit disturbing. Aww the little kids might get a bit of a fucking fright? It isn't like there aren't worse things going on inside fo the world than some 2d animation of slave labour. honestly, the stuff illustrated is so minor in comparison to what is going on right now.
The worst part is that we support the labour by buying products made in these shitty countries, we are perpetually allowing for this cycle to occur, so why not have it in our faces in a dark, comedic fashion?
Homer drinks beer, frequently gets drunk with his friends at a bar and has a job where he just leans back at the desk of a nuclear power plant. How are any of these things good for children to watch?
They aren't, but it doesnt really matter. I grew up watching the show, and I dont think its fair to cry bloody murder, bitch and moan about the horrible banksy introduction to the show. Grow up you ignorant swine.
The truth is always harsh.
Sorry but, who is Banksy? :/

Look him up on Wikipedia, he is a famous street/graffiti artist.

This isn't depressing at all.

Not at all, maybe it's a British thing but this was fucking hilarious.

I just heard about him today, and looking at some of his work he's a fucking genius.

banksy deserves his own thread so we can rate him artistic
I thought it was hilarious, I think because Banksy made it people think its some serious statement about life and the capitalist west or something, really its just a joke.
Banksy is not bad artist, not at all.
I liked that intro and his work in Wiki
