if this has come up sorry, but i was just thinking about tanner's movie (i haven't seen it yet) but i thought it would be cool to make a movie about cr johnson's life. like a video biography, using old footage and interviews and it would be narrated by someone. throughout his whole life he had a huge influence on skiing and it would just document his life in an hour movie. maybe i'm the only one thinking this, but i would buy that. rip cr.

His section in seven sunny days is one of the most inspirational iv seen, a movie for him would be dope, but highly unlikely.

Somebody should do this. He was such a legend and his story is quite unique.

i think this is a siickkk idea, one of his closest friends that was with him throughout his career should narrate it that would be ill

If you haven't seen Like a Lion, definitely check it out. Tanner talks about their friendship, CR's first injury and his death. It's pretty intense, definitely gets you thinking... This would be a cool project though, I'm in favor.

if there's enough footie, that'd be tight. i feel that it would be the most anti-hollywood, tear jerking movie but would really show how dangerous their profession is and how committed they are to doing what they love.

Ya but as you said, it's kind of been done before.  Maybe instead of just Tanner they could include more riders, but still I feel like it wouldn't be anything we hadn't already seen.

I definitely plan on seeing this in the future, i've heard really good things and i will be getting this for sure eventually.

skiierman's entire post is totally on point. my thoughts exactly.

^and to the guy who said that about the bio 9s, my idea was as the movie goes through his life, it shows all of his segments that he has had, or at least as much as possible. it would be a big project, but my thoughts on it are that he was friends with and had such a huge impact on everyone in the freeskiing community that i think a lot of companies would be on board to help out.
