Another Official Banksy Film?, by Daniel Silk on Jul 24, 2019 14:10:16 GMT 1, We have already had Exit through the Gift Shop, so Iโm wondering if Banksy might fancy making another film in the future? Maybe more focused just on his career.
The last Film was a big success for Mr Brainwash, so I just think Banksy might have unfinished business trying to get his real messages across to the public and is a film the best way to do it.

Another Official Banksy Film?, by Daniel Silk on Jul 24, 2019 14:29:51 GMT 1, I think when Exit was released people expected it to be much more about Banksy, but in reality it was more like a documentary promoting Mr Brainwash. Do you think Banksy regrets that? Or do you think he just laughs about it all.

It was a very peculiar film and rather indulgent. His editorial judgement is better with flat art ...

Another Official Banksy Film?, by Fast Eddie on Jul 24, 2019 15:20:59 GMT 1, I see the film as a successful social experiment. It provides context and information that in principle would allow the viewer to understand both a certain street art ethos and how that clashes with impulse consumerism and rapacious art market profit seeking. Then, it gets all immediately ignored and misread as endorsement. But I would not trust my own opinion. Last movie I saw was Aquaman.

I liked a lot the 5 first minutes of Exit with all these vandals ( thatโs why I became a fan of graffiti and street-art - the most closer of the punk mind ) ..
I liked the story about the tenners, Invader a bit also and LA show !
But well , how the Mr Brainwash thing is boring !! Bla-bla-bla, real shit.
We donโt care of Brainwash !
This guy....

It's did, but the public seem to love him for what he is. Do you think banksy miscalculated the public's reaction?

I think most people didn't know who he was before the film. I suspect he has easily sold more prints and at much higher prices than Banksy has over his career.

Another Official Banksy Film?, by jimbofatz on Jul 25, 2019 0:16:43 GMT 1, Exit through the gift shop was suppose to be the first work of fiction to win an academy award for best documentary.
The film was suppose to be a battle of the titans Art World vs. Hollywood for biggest group of idiots. Art world won as Hollywood caught on right at the end and avoided massive embarrassment.
There will never be another one.

Sounds nice (like most made up stuff).... but no. If you know people who worked on the film you d know it wasnt that sophisticated of a plan.
Re: thread topic. The most I know is that there initially was thoughts on a follow up film but then abandoned (for good? not sure...)

Itโs really not up to you to decide that. Who knows.

Another Official Banksy Film?, by Film Director 247 on Jul 25, 2019 14:28:23 GMT 1, My take is that it started as a street art doc but then I think it turned into an experimental Mr Brainwash movie. Having seen what Brainwash was doing, I think Banksy purposefully made it an X Factor / Talent show. Proving the mass population will consume anything that's put in front of them. The Banksy quote in the film for Brainwash's show โMr Brainwash is a force of nature; heโs a phenomenon. And I donโt mean that in a good wayโ proves that with the queues around the block for the show.
As for another film from Banksy, I can't see it happening. I think at the time of release, people were calling for a street art film as there hadn't really been a film as significant as this (in a commercial / mass appeal sense). And arguably having the artist that changed the game as the main voice gave it that.
We all know how politically charged his art pieces are but I can't see him making a 90 minute film about Palestine or Refugees etc. I think he'll leave that to the professionals, like the Nativity Play that Danny Boyle directed for example. But I do hope we see much more from him, whether that's a film, a stunt or just a small rat. That's why we're all on this forum!
