1. There has been debate over if this movie is genuine or a "mockumentary". What do you think? If it was a mockumentary - why would Bansky do this?
-what i think about this movie is that this movie is a mockumentary. the reason why is that this movie is  showing him painting and graffiti on the walls and buildings. he is mocking the government and the  people he showing what he think about this world so thats why i thing this is a mockumentray 


2. What do you think the street artists are trying to get across to the public with their graffiti?
How can you tell they were effective?
i think the reason why they are graffitiing is that they want to show the world and everyone around them what they think about the government and what should be done. i think they are effective because all of his work is getting more fame because it showing what the government is doing 
3. What do you think that Mr. Brain Wash was trying to get across to the public with his art? Was he effective?
what i think he is trying to do is that he wants other people to see what his perspective about the government is about

4. What do you see as the key differences between the street artists work and MBW's work?
the differece is that MBW is show a message but others just do it for fame


5. At the end of the show lots of people showed up to the art show.  Why the long line? What brought so many people together?
the reason why i think  people lined up to see his art is that everyone is wanting to see his art sice his art is showing a message..

6. Graffiti: Is it art or vandalism? How would you react to someone painting on your wall? What similarities do you see between graffiti and guerilla marketing? Where is the line for Shepard Fairey or Banksy, when they move from making art against the mainstream machines into making money off of their art from the mainstream machines? Did they sell out or did they achieve success?
graffiti is art. if someone had painted my wall than i would first see what the messages is trying to be prove or shown and if it is a good message than i would leave it on my walls to let other people see it.what similarities compared this to guerilla marketing is that they are both creative way to show.
