Replying to Watch Picture This then tell me you stil think Idea was cool
I borrowed the new Mack Dawg film Picture THis from a friend the other day and it got me thinking about the ski films I've seen this year. Idea did have a few good shots but it pretty much looked like it was made by a bunch of junior high students. You or I could have made that movie with a $20,000 budget.
Picture this is just in a whole different league. The cinematography is lightyears ahead of what anyone else is doing. I just don't get how companies can go out and be proud of something that just isn't up to snuff and more importantly how people can get so stoked on it. Ski movie companies just aren't pushing themselves like Mack Dawg. Look at Yeah Dude. A third of the movie was comp footage. I hate seeing comp footage in movies. It's so fucking lame. Then there is MSP who has done that same fucking Whistler shoot with the huge jump and the sunset. It was cool three years ago but it's been done now. I want to see something new. So that's my rant. I'm not buying a ski movie this year in protest because I don't think any of them are worth it.
