I think we all missed the part in the beginning were the guy said the city spends 2 million & it's just 10 of them working. Sound like a damn good gig.
If Santa Ana was graffiti-free that'd be really sad. Graffiti is part of what makes cities vibrant and beautiful. A hundred years from now tags and throwies from the 80's will be considered historical works of art, and people will think it's ridiculous that the artists were thrown in jail for it. I don't love all the toy tags in my city, but even those are better than looking at a grey concrete wall. And when you get a really masterful wildstyle piece in your town, it's something you look forward to seeing every time you pass. Makes me a lot happier to live in my city than a bunch of dull concrete and advertisements everywhere
Heard that, I can remember when I was still in a car seat coming over the bridge into Philly and staring at all the graff covered rooftops and the old buildings and factories and admiring

@@Unknown_soul99 hahahhaahah they get so defensive and angry when you draw graffiti on a blackbook because they think its vandalism, a graffiti film said that graffiti is not allowed even if you owned the property what a bunch of losers
Idk what you’re talking about. This is a very powerful film. It’s right up there with Beat Street and Wild Style. You can tell it’s a high quality film by the high end cans used as props lol.
definitely in LA, writers gotta be careful not to become victims of tagbanger gangsters, otherwise kid was making the right moves and graffiti is an excellent hobby for teens and young adults!
@@simpleman8883 before you pick up any markers or spraypaint, do as much research for a year or two as you can. watch every documentary on youtube, and study graff forums and styles from around the world. then one day, you can start hitting your blackbook, still no streets yet. and only once you become knowledgeable on paper, then can you go hit the streets finally. start with watching some graff movies now.
10 folks employed full-time plus a contractor on the weekend?? sounds to me like just a few random kids are helping provide full-time jobs for 10 families at least. sounds like a few unappreciated heros. and how much did they say that cost a year?? quite a damned bit too! hah we know(hope/anticipate) these 10 folks are enjoying SOME of that money spent...
im actually hella open with my parents about my tagging. my whole family used to tag my uncles aunts my mom and dad. so they understand why i do it they also give me tips and they told me about diffrent style of tagging like chicano, wind, and more
The one thing I don't understand about all the anti-graffiti movies and skits is they make it seem like it's a dangerous thing akin to drugs, like sure graff is illegal but it's not "harmful" per se, like most taggers and writers I see just tag public property and it's generally frowned upon to go after someone's house or car.
@@Koraxus The closest i see is like public tansport trucks and tbh i see those as fair game since they aren't really private like someone's car. I just wish outsiders would understand that there is a moral code in the scene y'know.
@@vaporghoul ideally there is. but there are always a good number of people tagging who don't really belong to the culture then again i live in latin america
This gave me a whole different perspective on life watching this cinematic masterpiece gave me a idea what it is like to be a graff writer this has changed my life in so many different ways fly high ramon my condolences to you and you family 😇🕊❤️
And then the dramatic stare into the camera “nobody’s gonna stop me from writing” I never thought an anti graffiti film would make me wanna write so bad
it does have a nostalgic vibe tho. im european but back then, in the earlies 2000‘s, i used to think that this is what the us is like. i‘ve always wished that one day my mom tells me that we movin to the us and i get to know how life is over there. this brings me back to the old days :)
Artistic liberties are always taken in the 'reenacted' style of documentary film making, still an edge of your seat thriller with an unseen plot twist in its final act, even if the middle third dragged a bit. ~Gwendolyn Beachnut of the Santa Ana Retirement Community News Ledger.
on a side note my homies mom was like this kids mom. He had to bring a change of clothes when we went out bombing so he wouldn’t get any paint on his stuff. I would hear her yelling “well what are you going out to do then FRANK!? Anytime you hang out with him you get in trouble! You better not be out doing the graffiti FRANK!” Pffft get bent lady we ain’t out here slippin
As cringe as the movie is, it's actually not that unrealistic lol. If you catch tags in a gang neighborhood you will at the very least get your ass kicked.
Woooooow... That's beyond cringe. How do you even get to this level? Also, are they really saying that other writers are "toy" when their stuff looks like *THAT*. What even happened to the sketches? Why did they even bring so much paint? Writing 420 on a wall, really? This is so bad. This is literally what boomers think graffiti is like. I couldn't watch the whole thing. Just skipped through. It's just too bad. I don't even know where you even got this from. Damn. Dude. I just watched the Tont Hawk one too. Not gonna spoil it. Go watch it youself. Maybe re-upload it, since comments are turned off on that one.
They're kids, testing their limits. 😤 👏 we're all just Toy soldiers. They didn't have good preferences or teachers and they wanted to rebel against boring norms. 420 is math 🧮 it's calculated with how high calculator. 😆 🤣 they clearly stole too much paint, just for the kicks. And we're dreaming about making big and cool stuff. They did not realise, how hard it really is, but they wanted to get there. They also wanted to be seen as cool gang 😎 knowing what you want, is skill, you're rarely born with.
Part 1 set the premise.... But part 2 really told the story of how a young youth found his life going down the rabbit whole in the world of graffiti. Part 3 just solidifies that graffiti is bad.. Gangs are good!!!
I remember in middle school me and my friend tagged our 4th period tables underneath the table and put tag stickers and next year that we went to highschool and my little brother went to middle school he had the same class and I went to visit once at his parent teacher conference and our tag was still there but all scratched up and you can still see the white stuff from the sticker getting peeled off lmao
The first part when he goes to jail kinda makes you not wanna to graffiti but the end when the gang banging Christian gets mad over a wall ruins it all lmao 💀💀💀

10 to be exact with one contractor on the weekends.
Bro that was legit my thought when I started doing it lmao
A person thanked us because thanks to us taggers they made a business of cleaning and restoring the national subway
