Simpsons sweatshop

Following on from the from the previous post, it has emerged that Banksy has created a title sequence for The Simpsons, aired for the first time in the US yesterday.

True to form the Banksy opening sequence portrays the contentious issue of sweatshop workers using imaginative methods to create Simpsons merchandise as well as liberal use of the Banksy graffiti tag.

According to the BBC the title sequence has proved to be quite controversial, with the storyboard leading to delays, disputes and threatened walk outs.

If you cant wait until October 21st, when the episode is aired in the UK to see what all the fuss is about, you can find the clip here.

Personally I think it's great and they all need to lighten up a bit! If you cant poke fun at yourself...
