    Lol, I love this guy!

    Stick it to those goose-stepping bureaucrats!

    This part was the best, imo:

    "The BBFC confirmed it had awarded the movie a U certificate along with a note warning that the description of the film "may contain spoilers"
    ~RAWR!

    Has to be the lowest budget/duration movie ever.

    U - The U symbol stands for Universal. A U film should be suitable for audiences aged four years and over.

    It would need to be only in the shades of the painted color, otherwise they could too easily scan it with a cheap software tool. If you make it hard for the pricks, you need to go all out

    Nothing brilliant about it; the MPAA is a non-state actor, so the 1st Amendment does not apply to it. Congress not so much.

    I don't understand. Why pay money to have them check your film if all you want to do is waste their time? Doesn't that seem childish? Theres a reason I hate a lot of people in certain "arts".

    I can't say I'd care if the 6k you give me is crowdfunded or not, so long as you're paying me for a little over 10 hours of my time.

    The paint is a metaphor

    Is the paint wet or dry?

    They should make a trilogy of 10 hour movies, 30 hours total, of grass growing.

    oh cool. I was just going by $6000, forgot it wasn't in dollars. Id gladly do that for a few weeks straight and then take off a few months.

    Keep in mind in this scenario you aren't actually getting paid that. Your bosses are. You're probably getting paid slightly over minimum wage to watch that film.

    Well that's easy. Id refuse and id send a letter to the "Artist" that hes a dick and hes taking out his frustration on people who aren't to blame and maybe he should pick another battle.

    Ever heard of protesting? He didn't pay out of pocket, these were donations. And he did it both to send a message to the BBFC as well as to the public that something needs to change.

    You wouldn't have the right to refuse to. You are specifically mandated to watch all films in their entirety that are submitted.

    I guess im not understanding his "fight". What needs to change? And yes I could quit. Im not going to watch 10 hours of paint drying for minimum wage. Im going to be sick that day.
