Well the famed graffiti artist Banksy was asked to do the Simpson intro...
Well as you can see Fox was not happy at all with what he did.

More explaining the intro

And Mr. Bansky's truth behind the face of Simpsons is why I don't like that show.
 
Unnecessarily dark for the show, even if attention to outsourcing does need to be brought to public light.

That's pretty much the animation process for a large portion animated shows in the US.

Seriously though, what did people expect when they invited Banksy to do an intro?
 
Korean animation studios are not sweat shops. Nor is South Korea a third world country.

South Korea was chosen because of their animation capability and their English skills make them better at animating an English-based show.
 
I don't like the video, I think it was done in poor taste. I love banksy though.

Kinda of typical of him with this video. This is the edited video of the original. I would like to see what the original was.

Anyways a little note is FOX did not want to run the video but the writers where going to go on strike if FOX decided to cut it.
 
LOL, Banksy knows they're not sweatshops. Hes just poking fun at the people who think they are! Notice the "worst case scenarios"; dead unicorn, slave panda, skeletons, etc.

Hes just trollin' Fox
 
Everything that is done nowadays is controversial. Can't we all just get along?

I actually had no idea what the intro was trying to get at, because my recording started a few seconds after it started. I only saw the 'sweatshop' scene forward.
 
I sort of laughed. At first I thought it was a bit strong/bad taste for the show. But the unicorn made me giggle with glee. I <3 unicorns

Wear a tinfoil hat, it'll block it.
