I thought this movie was just epic, one of the best, if not the best ski movies ever made.  How come it doesn't seem that highly regarded around here?

It was a sick movie... but people around here are pricks and for some reason have a massive problem with msp for whatever reason. So no matter what they put out.. without even watching it with an open mind people will judge it and say its crap.

I thought the movie was good, but the segment of base jumping being 3 songs long, it became really boring. but some people had epic parts like abma

I still think ski movie III "the front line" was the best ski movie ever! I feel It was ahead of its time and tanners section was dope. o and that movie was by MSP as well so i feel they put out good work. I think people hate on them because they are not as raw and dirty as poor boys or rage...thats where the hate comes from

i don't know, the front line was fucking epic, i mean it had candide going HUGE, it had the crevasse segment, pollard doing the first switch pow skiing on film, and CR and Seth absolutelty destroying their segments, what more could you ask for (besides philou)?

Haha, I remember when that first came out I had no clue what it was and my friends said they were going to join the yearbook committee, apparently they thought that had they told someone about the premier at our mountain our whole school would show up. Good times....

Ahh so it's msp, well whatever.  I didn't like the base jumping either beause it's lame after the first few shots.  Well I still thought yearbook was a very very sick ski movie.

It had some good parts, some bad. Really inconsistent. Abma's part was good.

its the kind of movie you're glad to have on DVD, so you can skip the lame segments (basejumping) and just pick out the quality ones. as to why its not more highly regarded. no idea, i guees since its not as good as sessions 1242, it gets tossed into the mediocre pile by the newschoolers community.
