So im not a huge Warren Miller fan, but i sure as hell respect all that hes done. Some of his movies are real cliche, and they really always are the same style. But he knows how to make a movie and what not.

So heres the trailer for his newest movie, 'off the grid' http://www.warrenmiller.com/wmiller/highlights/feature/off_the_grid_quicktime.html

some of it, like the begininning, were real sick. other parts were kinda weak. But they have about half of jamie pierres huge huck, and they have a wheelchair skier heliskiing.

so im not saying im a huge miller fan, im just putting this trailer out there for others to enjoy.

The reason why this one is going to be different is because Warren Miller seperated from the film company and is now running without him. So no more commentary/directing by him leaving the opportunity for the movies to head into the more conventional mold of ski porn movies. The teaser looked awsome but I feel like it's going to be a mix of TGR and MSP into one.

Ya, and i think that sucks. I will always associate his voice with my love of skiing and riding.

Yeah, Miller should have just made a 'last film' and then ended. Continuing on with the name hasnt kept the quality or the feel of the films up. They really just feel like TGR films to me now.
