Classic.
In the dead of night, Sabo plastered his posters all over town, in hard-to-reach places where they look like genuine advertisements.
A conservative street artist is mocking Hollywood’s biggest night, using fake Redbox kiosks and a line from a Quentin Tarantino movie to bash Sunday night’s Oscar show.
Sabo, an artist who has made a name for himself with real-looking movie posters that skewer liberalism, plastered his latest creations all over Hollywood and Highland, a stone’s throw from where celebrities will be walking the red carpet.
In the dead of night Thursday and early Friday morning, Sabo plastered his posters all over town, in hard-to-reach places where they look like genuine advertisements.
“All those assholes make are unwatchable movies from unreadable books,” says one large poster containing a giant image of an Oscar statuette. The text was borrowed from Tarantino’s True Romance.
Sabo also created ads for Redbox and even built some replicas of the movie rental service’s iconic kiosks.
Some of the kiosks feature the Tarantino line and others say: “Yeah, we wouldn’t have paid full price to watch any Oscar nominated movies either.”
The Redbox mock-ups are not only in Hollywood, but also Brentwood and Westwood near the homes of many celebrities and industry executives.
Typically, Sabo’s fake posters will stay up as long as 24 hours before the powers that be get around to tearing them down, but he’s hopeful his newest crop will survive through Sunday’s Oscar show.
“These pieces look so legit no one is thinking to take them down. It almost looks like a real Redbox ad,” he said. “I consider this piece my representation of the discounting of Hollywood.”

You are a person after my own heart. LOL. I too was born and partly raised in Cleveland Ohio, also graduated from H.S. in 1975, have an Associates, and BSN. I ran into your blog through reading other things, and a link to your site was listed. I am so glad I found it. It is so refreshing to know that there are true American patriots and people who still love this country, have not been brainwashed by the Obama Crowd (and his crowd of Moo-slimy Brotherhood members) and the Leftist Liberation Party. I am blonde, green eyed, white with native American heritage, now a southern gal, and YES, I own not 1, not 2, not 3, but 4 guns. I have had run ins with some of the Mooslimy men here. My best friends 63 years old, was cornered in a WalMart by 3 of these slimy bastards. They followed her around the store, checked out when she did, and were waiting on her outside when she left. She had called me to come and get her, but I was unable to, and told her to call her husband. Just as he drove up, two of these camel jockeys grabbed her by the arm. Her husband jumped out of the car with is gun in hand, cocked, and told them that he would drop them right where they stood. They let her go, and tried to follow them, but he, being a good ole boy, was able to out maneuver them. My friend made the mistake of looking down when these men looked at her. A sign to them that she is subservient. WRONG THING TO DO> Women should look these slime balls in the eyes, stare them down. They cant stand it and will most likely try to do something to you….thats why I carry a gun. I stared a couple of these guys down, pissed them off. They came after me, when I had led them to a corner of the store, out of camera site… I acted like I was looking at something on the shelf. When I knew they were right behind me, one was almost touching me and had his arm out to touch me, I turned and shoved a small revolver in his belly and cocked it. They left muttering some islamic crap!!! They are cowards
Marie,
My God, this happened in Knoxville, Tennessee? That’s crazy. The locals need to rise up against that shit and let the government and the muzzies know that it will not be tolerated. They shouldn’t be allowed in this country to begin with. Obama is responsible for the mass influx of muzzie invaders. We’ll end up fighting them in the streets. I own a firearm as well. Kudos to your husband. With any luck, some good ol’ boy or girl in Tennessee will end up giving those ragheads lead poisoning. By the way, if I were you, I’d go to the media and tell them what’s happening. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.
