seemore 66 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Couldn't find a newer post so attached to last years. Just bought Standing Sideways (Burton2011) from Mainpeak only $11.95 Great movie a good mix and good soundtrack. Definitely worth the money. Seemore Link to post Share on other sites

Loads of free bits floating around, Nimbus Independant (Pep Fuja, Eric Pollard, Chris Benchetlet) got loads on their vimeo chanel, also The Balance of Powder by Sherpas is nice free vid I watched yesterday.

ju87 0 Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 anyone know where I can get any of the Car Danchi series outside of Japan ? Link to post Share on other sites
sand 17 Posted November 10, 2011 Author Share Posted November 10, 2011 Got TGR's One for the Road, and was very underwhelmed (let down). It spent too much time talking about 'The Road', rather than the usual, more interesting banter from the athletes about the places they were skiing/visiting. Also the reality TV style of watching the aspiring pro receive the phone call in his room inviting him to go ski and film in Alaska was just plain cringe. The 'Reality TV' format, the people who enjoy it and all it represents should be dumped into the middle of the ocean IMO, I certainly feel it has no place in a snow movie.

Neil Tilley 0 Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Just watched "an ordinary skier" a different slant on a ski movie , but a great insight to what make one ofnthe best skiers in the world tick!! Link to post Share on other sites
ippy 66 Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 Just bought That's It, That's All - Travis Rice and associates. really enjoyed it. Stunning scenery and snowboarding. I watched it a couple of weeks ago and was AMAZED to find the south american part didnt in fact take up half the film, but a mere ten or so minutes. After all the people moaning about how they all just spent half the movie sitting around failing to ride, i was really looking forward to a snowboard movie that doesnt just show rail after rail, or huge white line after huge white line. Saying that though, the incessant slomo and the double helicopters (to film the helicopter "filming the action" and not at all filming the sponsor) grated on me a wee bit. Some nice hits and all that, but its just another snowboard movie and i hate those things. Give me jeremy jones sitting in a tent for three days moaning about the weather Link to post Share on other sites

Mick Rich 78 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Like it, though that steak at the end has made me really hungry!! I saw "Nowhere", the latest Absinthe Films' offering this evening, which was good but I really didn't like the music they'd chosen!! I know it shouldn't matter but I think next time I'll press the mute button and listen to something better on my iPod! Link to post Share on other sites
Sciclone 2 Posted December 4, 2011 Share Posted December 4, 2011 Nowhere is Absinthe's film from last year. This year's one is called Twel12ve.. Still yet to see it.. I find a lot of films have crud music. It's either hip-hop (nothing really to do with snowboarding...) or hard rock/metal, which doesn't go with the peacefulness I feel when snowboarding... Give me some good DnB or cruisey music as a soundtrack anyday.. Link to post Share on other sites
NoFakie 45 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 I don't watch many board movies but I find the voiceovers harder going than the music. All the snowboarding as a way of life and pushing the boundaries cliches. They say the same thing every time. Link to post Share on other sites
Kansaiash 6 Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Just got The Art of Flight. Its a great film. Loving the tunes at the start when they are in Alaska. Of course the boarding is also epic. Link to post Share on other sites
