therealblankmansays...See now, here we have a true artist at work, not a mouth-breathing pretender. Beautiful.
therealblankmansays...Also, I don't blame him for not finishing it. Burger King is just rank-awful.
my15minutessays...super-sized upvote for your description, schmawy.
kronosposeidonsays...Much better than "Dali Eats a Taco".
AGideonsays...maybe he's too artistic for me.
really i think this was one of the things that was all hype, a bunch of critics didn't want to be left out so they praised him.
Sarzysays...But not quite as good as "Jackson Pollack eats a Manwich". That one gets kind of messy.
zorsays...This video is mesmerizing. I think everyone should make a video like this. It really puts people in perspective and cleans the slate. Imagine bill clinton eating a hamburger, jesse jackson, pat buchanan, britney spears, etc etc. It's like shut up, watch them eat a hamburger, and then see if you have anything to say about them. Go then and eat a burger yourself.
schmawysays...I get a little pissed at Warhol for dismantling art sometimes. Not that he's wholly responsible, but that whole thing you're experiencing- the "why am I watching this" and "this is stupid" or "how brilliant" or "look, Burger King"- is both cool and annoying. He really killed craft for the sake of experience.
siftbotsays...Tags for this video have been changed from 'Hamburger, Andy Warhol, Burger King, Ketchup, Pop Art' to 'Hamburger, Andy Warhol, Burger King, Ketchup, Pop Art, MG is the reigning king' - edited by MarineGunrock
Farhad2000says...Warhol is a cunt.
schmawysays...did I upvote your comment Farhad? can't tell on a handheld. I meant to downvote it 'cause i simply detest name-calling. even though I kind of agree.
Farhad2000says...I actually admire the man.
See this video http://www.videosift.com/video/andy-warhol-interview
legacy0100says......the fuck??? (for both the video and the comments)
This is another reason why I don't verse well with Artsy ppl.
quantumushroomsays...He and The King would've gotten along famously.

Roger that loud and clear, dude. You know, I have as much respect for the skill of Warhol as the next dude, but when he did shit like this it really cheapened the meaning of art. I mean let's face it: Any dickhead could have done what he did, but since he did it all of sudden it became "art". You know ALL the true artistic masters were spinning in their graves when this shit was released.
Yet I upvoted it. Why? Because I believe that within every human being there lies an artist of some sort or another, and maybe that was Warhol's point.
But still, he was ugly.
karaidlsays...I'm proud to be the first to downvote this. And when I did it, it was art. Someone should have taped it.
