    and the award for the lamest teaser for the trailer goes to

    no surprise

    Warren Miller Entertainment!

    http://www.skinet.com/skinet/videos/...632136,00.html

    god I wanted to shoot myself halfway through

    it really is too bad WM's movies used to be classics, its a shame to see whats happened to them since he's retired

    I know a lot of people hate on him for his formulaic approach but he was way ahead of the curve when it came to ski bumming

    For sure, you have to be lost to find a place that can't be found, elseways everyone would know where it was

    That's a cool teaser if you watch the ending first.
    We're sorta like 7-Eleven. We're not always doing business, but we're always open.

    Hey, with the vacuum in the footage, it's fair to say that the trailer sucks.

    Yeah - what they really should do is take some lame ass rock/rap combo music and get people skiing down spines in Alaska to it - interspersing slow motion with real-time to the beat of the forgettable songs. That is what all the core companies are doing... since 1985.

    that kid reminds me of an boy named "will hunting" who used to be a janitor at harvard while i was attending there. he thought he was so freakin smart and always fucked with the professors notes on the blackboard. Man that kid was a dick.

    I thought you guys were just being hard on WM, like usual.....


    Til I watched the teaser- and you're right, that was fucking horrible. I've seen better shit on Youtube.

    Maybe they should show some guys skiing some groomers to Dire Straits. You could relate more to that right, Tippster?

    FKNA! Who couldn't?

    (I was addressing Tate's "Creative" dig.)

    Also - are you saying that spine skiing to some Flavor-du-Jour tunes is the epitome of modern snowsliding? Then why not just call it "Our Ski Movie 2007..... 2008.... 2009" Because it really is all looking the same lately.

    Of course I do.

    Do you guys apologize to Stump? No? Then what's the difference?

    For a moment I was worried you were talking about this trailer.

    edit- I have slow as hell dialup and didn't even se the WM thing. They actually ripped off Tate's idea? That's fucking weaker than Utah beer!

    Don't think the title's that bad.

    If you work on or around a resort, then it becomes your 'office' and if you're a visitor then the resort is certainly your 'playground'.

    Much better than 'off the grid'
