Ski Movies Recycling Names

This seems to be a growing phenomenon:

The Bunch "Far Out" (2013) / TGR "Far Out" (2018)
Nipwitz "Brain Massage" (2014) / Buldozlife "Brainmassage" (2019)
Gypsy Feelin "Cruise Control" (2015) / Good Company "Cruise Control" (2019)

I realize ski movie names are pretty meaningless, but I think it's disrespectful to the original movie to name your movie the same thing because it either says A) you think the older movie was so insignificant that it doesn't matter if you name your movie the same thing or B) you were totally unaware the name had already been used, which shows that the creators of the movie aren't really that tuned in to the ski media scene.

The buldozlife movie looks so sick and the skiers are dope as hell but it's not that damn hard to come up with a name that hansn't been used. They even use the same kind of old video cam clips as Nipwitz used in the original brainmassage.

Nothing makes sense in the first place. Humans sliding on frozen precipitation using a mix of wood and plastic apparatus that allows efficient transportation along undesirable conditions while another being records our efforts with a triangulated camera system to ensure the visual longevity of said actions. We utilize internal combustion engines to move our carcasses and use the energy of dead matter to power our machines. Isn't this all but a dream?

i don't know-- and i think i just kind of assumed Good Company was technically different in terms of who it involves but i never gave it any thought

but if i had to guess, maybe so they never have to be asked by a non-skier client what 4bi9 stands for? haha

They are separate entities. 4bi9 still exists as a media company doing professional commercial film/video work, unrelated to skiing. One or two people cross over both businesses but they exist separately and have separate lines of work.
