Looks intense. What's up with those corked backflips? Pretty crazy looking.

And now starts the annual NS bitch fest about ski films having any kind of narration.

also whats the deal with the sarajevo footage? Did 4bi9 just sell it to TGR? I wonder if it will be in the 4bi9 flick too.

This. Intro was a fucking joke. I was talking to my computer screen saying "Alright take it easy Warren Miller."

Look at the athletes they brought on though: Nick, Karl, Joss, Dane, and Chris Laker. That's some awesome flavor into the game. Honestly, if Durtschi's segment is half as good as it was in WoL, I'll be satisfied. But major stoke all around.

stupid strawman argument, there's lots of room between no narration and that intro. ive seen parodies that were less cheesy than that. like, really, the edge? sorry, i didn't realize it was 1990 again dude XXXtreme

Stoked for this film to come out!

Also a quite welcome surprise to see Chris Laker in the mix. I though him and P. White had stopped filming and were only going to do it with The Big Picture.

We don't hate all narration, but TGR films have been saying the same thing in different words in just about every movie. That says, it probably sells to gapers...

As long as the skiing's usually good I can usually tune out the narration and TGR usually delivers.

So based on the opening quote, none of these skiers actually go to/over the edge...I'm not feeling quite as gripped as I was before. Irrelevant quote is irrelevant?

Nick Mcnutt's segment was insane. It was probably my favorite TGR movie since Light the Wick.

He didn't. Angel Collinson had a really sick opening segment. Sage killed it too. Nick McNutt was on another level from everyone else though.

Caught a premiere of it last night, and i agree McNut was def on another level and all his shots in his seggy were fire , like literally every shot of him was fire.. But that was the highlight, in the entire movie IMO. Glad i saw the movie ,some sick stuff and some good filming outa alot of guys and gals.But honestly not one i plan on buying tho. Some great cinematography to enjoy, tgr style for sure, but great cinematography none the less.

For those of you who saw the screening at IF3 last night, keep in mind that due to the time constraints of the showings, many films were shown in a shortened version. The full length version of Almost Ablaze is nearly twice as long and definitely includes Ian Mac, Sages AK shots, and a Selkirk Tangiers Heli segment among other things. Thanks for the stoke!
