[lbo-talk] Deitch/Blu/Fairey

[Sean Andrews]

Yeah, Blu is awesome.  But I can't imagine his stop motion stuff is
completely unauthorized.  He must plan that stuff out well in advance and
get at least some permission--particularly when he's painting the entire
side of a building multiple times in broad daylight.  But maybe I'm not
hardcore enough to imagine that kind of moxie.
