How Not to Make a Ski Trailer

Dear Warren Miller,

I like slo-mo shots as much as anyone else, but when that's your entire trailer we have a problem.
And while we're on the subject of change, your movie format desperately requires a re-vamp.

Sincerely,
Will

I saw no problem, maybe a little repetitive but not really a problem. Looked good to me.

It's disappointing.
Even with the current footage, the trailer could be so much better.

Their trailer format is your biggest gripe about WME?

Dear Will,

they buy most of their shots from other filmers and they treat their athletes really well, which is great for the industry. Sadly they don't give a shit about the culture of skiing. WME is all about profit and any potential threat to that, WME is more than happy to sue them until there's nothing left including Warren Miller himself and Level 1. Because of this complete lack of respect for our sport, only gapers pay any attention to, or support, WME.

Love,

Jennifer Garners.

I realize they buy shots but not most shots. The only shots wme tends to buy are park shots in montages for intros and things like that

warren miller is a legend, and legends have their ups and downs when they work. this might not be his best work but its a trailer, a trailer to a movie that will probably be great. and the shots in the trailer arent too bad, im sure warren wont dissapoint

Are you kidding me right now? Warren Miller was kicked out of WME (Warren Miller Entertainment), which makes these films, for years now by a family member. They even sued him so he doesn't even own his own voice anymore.

How can you kids be so ignorant? That's just sad...

Fuck everything about that company and that trailer. WME needs to go out of business and the only way that will ever happen is if we stop showing any love to those greedy assholes and keep explaining that they sued Warren Miller himself for narrating small parts of Level 1's movie...

It's disgusting to me that there are skiers who know what happened who are still willing to sell out for a paycheck to appear in the film. Fuck them too.

I dont care what anyone says, or how much you argue, WME movies are complete shit. I literally had to get up and walk out of the theatre for 2 of their movies. Especially the last one, it was horrible. It was about a bunch of girls skiing that went to india or something to ski the bunny hill.

typical ski movie made for people who occasionally go "skiing" at their condo in vail once a year to brag to their coworkers about how awesome they are. not a ski movie made for skiers.

My family used to go to these films like 7-10 years ago and the las couple years I have been I have been disappointed in the quality of movies they have been producing. To me they are boring and one year they went on for like 15 20 minutes with this shitty band who had a un impressive snowboarder and followed them up to a ski hill and all the other members were falling all over the place. Warren doesn't own the company anymore and the people who do put out half fucked product every time since they have the name 'Warren Miller".

Lost it at the first two Youtube comments, either those are NS'ers, or more than just our community feels this way.

Whoops, his son isn't a dick but that doesn't change how little WME cares about the skiing and why any skier with a shred of self respect shouldn't support them by watching or buying their films.
