Shanghai Six, War, and White Shine : A Discussion

Alright, first off, this isn't another lame ass "what should i get" thread.
I've seen all of them, and am seriously stumped as to which one is better. Maybe they're all as good as each other, but i just want to see what YOU think. Here's my two cents:
Shanghai Six: Amazing soundtrack, sick editing(especially with the names), and really good skiing. My only semi-gripe is the lack of diversity with the hits.
WAR: Really good balance of park and B.C. lines. Pretty good soundtrack, incredible editing, and the return of pep and the best segment for seth in a while.
White Shine: I really liked the feel of this movie. No real defined rider parts, it's more about defining the locations, which is fresh and sick. I think the soundtrack is probably my least favorite, not to say it sucked, but it had some tough competition.
Your Thoughts?

You Guys are gonna start liking White shine in about 3 years cuz its too hot to handle for now... Youll realize that ski movies are always the same old patern and that movies like Wski, stereotype, WS are what skiing needs. Origi-freaking-nality

i thought six was the best, vanular and rainville were ridiculous and the keystone setups are off the hook. whiteshine had really great cinematography and was more laid back, war was just overall fun and pep kills it yet again, so i guess in their own respect all of em are sick!

I have all three plus tbc n god do i have trouble deciding which is best
S6: at first i dint like the soundtrack much but after 2-3 times there's really a nice flow. Steele fianlly stepped it up this year too.
War: Kool soundtrack, sick riders, nice intros but it's a lot like X but still very fun to watch
WS: I personnaly really like this movie, love the way it was more divided into locations than skiers, n i white shine had my favorite soundtrack but of course, the skiing isn't at the same level as the other movies (still some really sick riders like houle tj n gagnier that kill thought o n josh bibby too)

war: nothing new exept the skiing itself, all the same PBP movie..nothing new at all same old shit. The soundtrack didnt fit at all, mars volta was good tho. Same edeting, same soundtrack, same spots as earlier PBP movies.
TBC: A revelution, uniq shots and spots, new type of music to ski movies. The edeting, the riders...everything, i love it.
Shanghai six: Nothing realy new about the soundtrack, but its good. good edeting and the movie gets you realy pumped. Great railing but the BC jumps was just..bah. every jump looked like the same. But I realy liked shanghai six for sure!
