This Year's Ski Movies Sucked

Ok, I have not seen Skimatic, Anomoly, or LSS. but from what I have seen the ski movie industry is a failure. Lets start with Ski Porn! I just saw it tonight.
It sucked hardcore, terrible music, boring, and way too many switch 5s and cork 7s into powder. Sammy Carlson had the best part.
Now for MSP. Push sucked almost as much as Ski Porn! but it was not down to that level. Bad music, boring segments I was looking all over the theater to find something more exciting to look at. Sammy Carlson once again takes the best part, but Simon and Pollard had illin parts.
Now Show and Prove. Great movie, but doesn't get me stoked like other movies (cough State of Mind cough). This is not a movie I can watch everyday (except for the Cali backcountry segement, it makes me smile.) So I guess this doesn't really go under failure, like those first two. Tanner obvioulsy is the best ever.
Now RAGE, this one is also not a failure, in fact it got me the most stoked to ski because of its rawness. No Slo mo, just raw ski footy with mad good vibes (beach trip, people smiling everywhere). So yea RAGE takes the best movie so far. Once Again Sammy Carlson takes best part. P.S. good mix of music in this movie.
So I guess the Consensus is...
1. Sammy Carlson is god and makes awesome video parts and is prolly the best park skier ever
2. State of Mind is sick and ski movie companies take not of Finga on Da Trigga as well as RAGE.
the end i wish ski movies got me as stoked as 1242 did... o well

1242 was the dopest vid ever made. Nothing compares to it for me. And sammy does have the sickest parts.

thats the reason i said it, half the people dont understand the work that goes into it, and would never beable to do a better job, cuz they dont care and will just bitch about it and sit on their asses and wont do shit, for those that do mad respect and keep it up! even if its not better off the bat, atleast they're trying, so it does make a difference

i thought ski porn was sick, i saw it tonight. There's too much raggin, just enjoy it and don't criticize it so much.

watch skimatic and LSS, those are this years top two movies, and theyre so sick, im very impressed with skimatic, lots of shit that you havent really seen in other movies, and the bonus section has so much good footage too.

i liked ski porn, all the seggy's were kinda short but i liked it overall.. Show and Prove is still my favorite ski movie of the year, and i 100% agree with you that i couldnt watch the whole thing over and over, but i could with the cali backcounty seg. i am still wanting to see LSS, Push, and Skimatic.
