  Stepping in shit makes me feel something, but it is not art.

    It’s a readymade interactive art piece. That will be 30 million dollars.

      Sorry, you need to tape the poop to a wall for it to be art.

      It’s a companion piece to Fountain by Marcel Duchamp.

    yeah, but nobody made it with the intent of you stepping in it

    that is a very poor comparison.

      Yeah and if i made an art panel that tricked people into stepping in shit id be an asshole, not an artist. I hear the same sentiment of your argument all the time and i think it is utterly ridiculous.

      So a better analogy would be your cat puking on you in the middle of the night? It’s a highly emotional performance that’s audience intractable, top shelf art.

      Anything coming out of Hollywood is not art either, so the point is valid.

  feeling something at the extream makes it pretty fucking good Art.

  Uh, no. A good movie should make you feel something at least close to an intended emotion set, or at least get you thinking about its content.

  I’m gonna venture a guess that nobody intended for the reaction to the movie to be someone having trouble thinking about how to write a 0.5 star review for it and then quit and tell other people not to waste their time.

  The people watching yet another rehash of war of the worlds are not going to be (for the most part) art snobs. When the audience that would bother watching this watch it and say it sucks, I fucking believe them.

  I haven’t wasted my time because I heed warnings rather than touching hot stoves.

    No, this post doesn’t say everything that you hate is art, it says it can be art.

    I thought Hitler was supposed to be middling at best…

      Plenty of other dictators were way more effective mass murderers. I’d argue Hitler was middling at best.
