The Dream Factory made my brain hurt

**powder_prophet** · 09-30-2012, 03:27 PM

The skiing was sick, as usual. But what's up with the fucking dubstep?!? It sounded like the same beat, over and over, pounding deep into my skull. A song or two would have been ok, but seriously, the whole movie?!? Come on guys, what happaned to the days of Bob Marley openers, Metallica for the hard charging segments, and a good mix throughout?

Enough with the electronic shit.

Thanks for listening to my rant...

I'd wanted to see Dream Factory after hearing good reviews, now not so much.

**GoEhuge** · 09-30-2012, 05:34 PM

Haven't seen it yet and am still stoked to do so. That said... the tunes (dub step in particular) have been my issue in recent years.

Wish they would take a lesson from the Nimbus crew. Consistently awesome jams that appeal to more than just a small niche of one generation.

What! Reviewing the reviews of king of the road as i type. It sound fine ta mine

**TomCrac** · 09-30-2012, 07:45 PM

You mean it's already cliche? ... What's next, skiing backwards and jumping up on a metal handrails .... Is nothing sacred?

**alpinevibes** · 09-30-2012, 07:55 PM

I saw it last night; I will say the dubstep was a little much. But then again, it's not my style to begin with. I was still stoked on the movie though!

They could definitely learn from MSP when it comes to music selection... at least in recent years.

**MJbumper1121** · 09-30-2012, 09:03 PM

^^ Agreed. On a similar note, Superheros of stoke was definitely enjoyable IMO.

Dubstep is a crime.

Transformers fight music is hopefully a short blip on the musical radar... This has completely killed any desire I have to see this movie.

FWIW, I'm not a fan of 99% of the dubstep I've heard. In fact, MOST of it irritates the hell out of me.

I did notice ONE instance of annoying (to me) dubstep in the movie. I did not come away from it thinking it was overrun with it.

sooo....depends on your sensitivity level to it, I guess! It normally annoys me, and I did not really notice it. I thought they did a pretty spectacular job of making a movie about Alaska not an endless loop OF Alaska. I'd still go see it.

MSP had another killer soundtrack this year - especially the Metallica opening segment.

**raisingarizona13** · 10-01-2012, 10:11 AM

I thought last years soundtrack was awesome, especially opening up with the road goes on forever

**cluster** · 10-01-2012, 10:22 AM

There is only one song in "The Dream Factory" soundtrack that can be classified as dub step.

If you start classifying music, it will lead to classifying people, and all of a sudden BOOM! we have another Holocaust

ergo: DubStep = Nazism

The skiing was rad, don't get me wrong. But I miss the days of Concrete Jungle. I'm only 24, and now I feel old, great...

**basom** · 10-01-2012, 03:53 PM

This!!! I hate Dubstep more than any of you, but you obviously do not know what Dubstep is. There was only one track in the whole movie from what I can remember. I really enjoy TGR's music selection as it usually varies. Listening to Classic Rock over and over again in MSP films is truly old and repetitive.

As far as the film...I did enjoy it, but I felt like I have seen this movie about 100 times already. Both TGR and MSP could stand to take some notes from Sherpas and Nimbus on originality.
