Doesn't Canada have a bigger one? 💀
We’re all for artists getting paid for their art, but also, don’t be a fucking dick about it. This dude got your permission, and still managed to make the duck even with your unhelpful “guidance”. Where do you find the balls to then go and sue the person for doing the thing that they got your permission and paid you to do???
Make that make sense 🤦🏽♀️
And here in Brazil at the same time, the big rubber duck became a symbol against the rise of the conservative party that were, amongs other things, glorifying right wing dictatorial regimes.
But I didn't know about these two artists tho.
It's cute but I just find it useless and a waste of resources
I knew you’re voting habits wouldn’t allow you to report on the fact that Justin Trudeau scammed all of Canada claiming that he got one of these ducks to exhibit in Canada for Canada Day, and it ended up being a fake that he overpaid for using taxpayer money while he paid off his family and other people that he owed money to charging Canadians $40 million extra in taxes that year. And by $40 million extra in taxes I mean per hundred thousand people. you can do the math you have a calculator app on your phone.
Yeah, artist who think they can own an idea or thing that predates them can f*ck off honestly
It’s giving Vantablack vs PINK energy and I’m here for it
The judge was like “I don’t care we have two ducks now I consider that a win.”
The main thing I don’t like is that the person just copied exactly what he did instead of using it in his own way, instead making it bigger as an I’m better than you way and basically taking ownership of the same idea, rubs me wrong tbh.
I. NEED. IT.
How do you make money off of giant ducks in the water? Do the cities pay for it to float over to them?
Didn't the Toyman try to kill Bruno Manheim like this?
Why can't we just enjoy the rubber ducks?
The dude literally paid the other guy $50k to be able to create his own duck and when he actually went and did it the other guy tried to sue him for copyright? What a weasel
Why couldnt the ducks be friends 🙁
that sounds like an argument two kindergarteners would have lol
I seen one of those in Erie Pa
Not to discredit him or his work or anything, but imagine your biggest problem in life being some guy copying your Enlarged rubber ducky Jules Vern au
me: struggling with my major
that one art major on a random Tuesday:
if i saw the tiny ducks and not the big one i would cry until i threw up i hate the small ducks
This is the weirdest duck measuring contest I’ve ever seen.
Hofman: You can make a giant rubber duck if you give me $50,000
Hofman after receiving $50,000: Unauthorised!
Bro sued someone over a duck
This is so wierd. I like this through. The ducks are so cute. The lawsuit is wierd. I totally get why Nintendo is suing PalWorld. PalWorld had it coming. However the lawsuit is pretty dubious here. The ducks look so generic. It hardly qualifies as origional art. The only thing unusual is the size. Even if this was origional one should not sue someone for something that both parties agreed to. That is scummy.
