It's only plagiarism if you rip off something of value.
Funnily enough he got away with it for a few months after the movie premiered in Cannes. It's only after the movie was posted online that he was found out.
“Copying isn’t particularly creative work. Being inspired by someone else’s idea to produce something new and different IS creative work. In my excitement and naiveté as an amateur filmmaker, I got lost in the creative process and neglected to follow proper accreditation Im embarrassed that I failed to credit @danielclowes for his original graphic novella Justin M. Damiano, which served as my inspiration I was truly moved by his piece of work & I knew that it would make a poignant & relevant short. I apologize to all who assumed I wrote it. I deeply regret the manner in which these events have unfolded and want @danielclowes to know that I have a great respect for his work I fucked up.”
he will not divide us
Getting caught was part of his plan.
Can someone fill me in?
Do we believe him or do we believe this is a cover? I do think he'd be stupid and autistic enough to forget to credit someone.
He got lawyer coached in his apology no doubt, & I think he is dumb enough not to think his brilliant plans through.
HWNDU his "rape" allegation(which might also be bullshit or exaggerated) at his performance art deal.
Idealistic and naive is no way to go through life.
He plagiarized a comic, then when he got caught he apologized and his apology was copied from a post on yahoo answers then the next year he plagiarized the same comic book writer again and was sent a cease and desist.
was getting caught part of his plan?
maybe getting caught was part of his plan

what an unoriginal asshole
dude dont plagarize. ive already referenced the darkest knight in this thread
I don't understand why he was such an asshole about it afterwards. All those plagiarized apologies and the sky-writing and the Daniel Boring script were all just shitty.
what exactly are you talking about
shia owns for thisd
>his apology was copied from a post on yahoo answers
Holy kek. I fucking love this guy
you will not divide me
Emperor has no clothes my man.
He plagiarized a comic
He plagiarized the apology
He plagiarized the seagulls line
He plagiarized the I'm Sorry art show
That's the whole point of whatever statement he's trying to make. I actually think it's kind of funny and even somewhat clever
he's either completely delusional or doing it on purpose to make some kind of hippie point
also all those videos of him freestyling are plagiarized too, he steals bars from semi-obscure hip-hop and spins them as his own
He did a freestyle rap that went viral a couple years back. Turns out that was plagiarized too
Inspired by nike
Just do it
Shia can divide my butt cheeks anytime.
His art project got shut down? Makes sense, I guess.
Funfact, this apology was plagarized
What did he mean by this
Just months ago you guys were treating this guy like a fucking saint and then all of a sudden once he starts protesting Trump I see threads like this.
Really makes you think
