Thoughts? Remember WME suing Level 1 for Warren Miller speaking in the movie?

WME using Warren's death to try to make more money off his name. They're terrible.

Agreed. Just a twisted cash grab. Fucked up imo.

MSP did their own "lip service movie" with superheroes of stoke. Turned out pretty good.

Warren Miller (the man) did bring a lot to the action sport movie scene. His narration is a recognized style. When you heard someone comment on the skiing, you knew it was a Warren Miller movie. I own a few of his movies...but I dont watch them much.

Personally, I dont see a problem...

The problem isn't that they're just paying homage. It's that they're doing it after pushing the man himself out of his own company. WME split from Warren Miller the person and now they're cashing in on his legacy. That's fucked
