The movies are a fun thing to see at the theater pre-season and hang with your buds. That's not such a bad thing. For content, though, it's hard to beat what Cody's doing. Plus, 10-15 minutes is about right.

It's a complete damned if you do/don't scenario.
A few years back Sherpas Cinema and Sweetgrass were putting out some very different films with varying results. Even if I didn't love each one I still watched them all because....variety!!! And a few were actually pretty awesome. But I remember choruses of people on here lambasting the art house vibe, etc., wanting straight porn instead. And you don't see full lengths from either of those houses anymore (couldn't tell you exactly why). I still saw MSP, TGR, etc during those years too, balanced it out nicely. Maybe we'll get something different out there, but web-only seems like it's exploded and is largely occupying that creative outlet.
I do agree with plugboots though; even though it's cookie cutter the fall ritual of going to see a ski flick from one of the heavies at a theater is hard to replicate. You just have to know the product you are getting. And I dunno, maybe supplant what you're not vibing with booze!

I agree with all of that. Going back even further, Pléhouse and Eric Iberg's (eMedia?) early 2000s movies were nothing like the TGR, MSP, or PBP movies at the time. Even of those big 3, only 2 are still around and their movies have evolved toward being pretty bland. Will we ever see something like Brad Holmes having a rap battle with Shane McConkey again? My guess is no, but in that very particular case, that might be a good thing.

I think teddybear crisis was the last full length ski movie I actually enjoyed.

Stump and his posse in prime form.
Compared to the Barrymore and Miller films they shook the ski film world to its very foundation..I have been in this State for 30 years and I am willing to admit that I am part of the problem.

Pléhouse! Yessss...I own Whiteshine. I loved that film. Another out of the mold was Rage Films, who I loved dearly. Kinda found them by accident on here many years back. They used to mix a little big mountain, with b/c booters and tons of urban/jib...but slowly subtracted out the big mountain (cost had to be why). Anyway, I'm about as far from an urban/jib skier as you could find, but man...their films were absolutely gorgeous with some of the best soundtracks I've ever heard. I loved watching them, and bought a bunch. I miss them.

Yeah, but think about common rock climbing terminology: "developing" a cliff.
That term always bugged me.
