Impact was pretty good, but the movies are getting worse and worse. its starting to become more big mountain skiing, and less funny narration. i mean, how many mountain faces can you just ski down before it starts to get really boring?

Each show brings in a lot of money that gets spent again, I wouldn't be surprised if the overall profit isn't super huge. Yes he's (arrg) rich, but he's (argg) been saving and making money for 50 years.

i just got back from the 630 bushnell show- and i think the quality of impact was way trashier than the last few-- my favorite in the last few years has definetly been cold fusion; i agree with whoever said that big mountain skiing is getting a little bit boring. its good to an extent and then somehow it just doesnt cut it, unless you're out there.

His movies are decent in a filmmakers point of view. But he has been doing the same thing for the past 50 years, just a lack of something new. I used to watch his movies all the time but after a while you get kind of bored of them since they are all alike. A good producer, just his time is passing. The movies are meant to attract your average Joe anyways, thats the reason why we have PBP and Level1.

How many big national sponsors like Jeep, Nature Valley, Nissan, REI, etc. does PBP MSP and Level1 pull out? None. That is why Warren Miller has succeeded as much as he has financially. As far as film quality goes, it is about what you can expect when you have those kind of sponsors. So its a tossup of what is most important. I still go to them just because it is a tradition, but Impact couldnt even stand close to a film like X.

^^moron

you also have to remember he doesnt make 'ski movies' he really makes documentaries about the wintersports culture, he's not making ski-porn, hes trying to tell the story of that winter, and he does so very well

^ UTAHPOWSKIER corporate america does sponser core ski movies let me enlighten you:

tgr corporate america sponsers: Jeep, Sony
L1p- Kicker Audio
Msp- redhook, US airforce, redbull

KNUCK IF YOU BUCK BOY

The Michael Jordan, the Babe Ruth, The Wayne Gretzky of Newschoolers.com idiots needs no introduction.... but here\\\'s one anyways. John Andrew Steward, a rich kid from Georgia, will not hesitate for a moment to tell you exactly what he\\\'s thinking (and I use that term loosely). His over 2000 posts make him one of the most prolific retards on our list, and he\\\'s become something of a legend on this website, representing the ever-growing intellectually devoid section of the membership here at NS.com. In fact, when the Golden Wheelchair award was first conceived, there was some talk of naming it after him, as a dedication. Also among his qualifications are his being named so often to Crystal-Needs-A-Park\\\'s honorary hall of fame for stupid posts, that the proprietor was forced to abandon the project: Atlantaski simply flooded it too quickly. Further, he had more entries into the original Hall of Fame for Stupid Posts than any other member of Newschoolers.com. Though he went into temporary retirement a few months ago, he has recently returned with a vengeance and, far from missing a beat, has stepped his stupidity up to new heights, recently capturing a GW award for mocking Trevor Peterson. He is fully deserving of his place near the top of this list

cold fusion is by far the best WM movie in years. i bought that one on DVD it was so good. journey was decent, and storm sucked. ride was ok as well, with the brothers building that huge kicker setup in the midwest.......

i'm going to see impact on like the 12th or something at the palace in albany....... gonna be sweet......

ok, but I would be very suprised if level1 pulls in the same cash that WM does through sponsorships. Warren Miller is just more commercialized.
