    This is definitely pretentiously unclear. But it is equally hilariously engaging. I think they balance each other out.

    Nice work.

    I think you're wrong Blake, it's clear as day. The pretentiousness is intentional. there is one very clear message throughout. You would not have been engaged otherwise

    I'm thinking of bringing suit for defamation. That phony accent won't fool anyone--the dullest jury in the world will see through your thinly veiled attack and your slander.

    Deliciously unclear...deliciously executed. Wish I could be clever and say I understood it.

    this is so quirky I love it, such a silent joke and punch in the face of the artists who are truly pretentious and un cunningly fraudulent, this is really a nice piece though, so simple but very entrancing.

    I'm going to go out on a pretentious limb here, but he's clear to me. The search for Wallet is the only true search for Art. But then again, I am an Artist. None of you probably Understand.

    "People like a good wallet." I freaking loved that part. It made me bust out laughing. However, I was totally glued into the whole story. The execution of this was done perfectly. I loved this.

    visually engaging. i just can not avoid referring the critic on "the artist", to the actual artist who made this film.

    I feel that this is beautifully funny art about how it feels to feel like being an artist.

    I love it!
