ambassador of light

I laughed at this.

I wonder if light gave him these credentials....

that's where I would start my attack. work away at his power-base.

then again, maybe just tossing some dogshit at him would do the trick.

either way....godspeed, crusader!

Lionsgate making holiday movie based on Kinkade art
Lionsgate and the Firm have partnered to work on a feature adaptation of popular artist Thomas Kinkade's painting ''The Christmas Cottage.'' Michael Campus will direct. The story will be based on how Kinkade began his career as an artist after discovering his mother was in danger of losing the family home.
The movie is set to begin production next month. - Variety

With Lionsgate's recent announcement that it's making a movie based on Thomas Kinkade's feel-good painting "The Christmas Cottage," it seems a befitting time to conjure up a mall art-inspired caper.

Dogs Playing Poker

 

THE PITCH Snow Dogs meets Ocean's Eleven meets Rounders
THE CAST Diefenbaker the Siberian Husky from Canadian TV's "Due South," Poochie from "The Simpsons," Hooch of Turner & Hooch, Lady and the Tramp's Lady, Snoop Dogg and Cuba Gooding, Jr.
THE PLOT Alaskan Iditarod dogsled champ Lucky (Diefenbaker) has led his team to world victory for a decade. But he's harboring a dark secret: At night, he haunts an underground poker ring.
(cameos by Spuds MacKenzie, Goofy, Pluto, Spike and Benji as denizens)
His exploits soon cost him his friends in the Husky pack and have him in the hot water of a tick-bath.
Drowning in gambling debt, Lucky the Husky skips town to elude a kingpin's (Snoop's) thugs (Gooding, Hooch). Desperate, Lucky high-tails it to Las Vegas with an old buddy previously presumed to be dead from a botched return to his home planet (Poochie playing himself). After hitting Vegas, Lucky also reconnects with an old canine flame, the fetching showgirl-turned-cocktail-waitress-turned-croupier, Lola (Lady).
(soundtrack featuring Snoop Dogg, The Kinks, Barry Manilow, Pink Floyd, Joss Stone, and Daughtry)
Lucky charmingly recruits his ex-love as an integral part of he and Poochie's scheme to fix the World Series of Poker.
(cameos by Snoopy, Lassie, Rin Tin Tin and Freeway from TV's "Hart to Hart" as tourney heavies)
THE RELEASE Summer 2007
THE TAGLINE "The dog days of summer just got even hotter!"

I must have missed this thread.

"The art of selling Kitsch" is what Kinkade is about.
Here's an interesting read, that explains his work for what it really is... crap.

Kitsch comes in many shapes and sizes. IKEA is a good example of Kitsch at it's very best, or should I say worst.

Art, pictures and other decorations bring life to your walls. IKEA has a wide range of frames, pre-framed pictures, art cards and wall deco to choose from. All in different, sizes, shapes and colors - at prices you can afford.

The only difference is that IKEA's cheaper. :)

Artist Paul Wachowski has taken it upon himself to capture the essence of Swedish mega-store shopping with his Ikea series Giclée prints of Ikea scenes. :rolleyes:

He is a genius.

I wish I could be selling pure and utter shit in galleries across the US.

he is so dead. Dead like Beanie Babies

Someone having a slow day at the office?
