Less Than Awesome News...

I just went to that page and it completely sucks. Not to be a jerk, but if you actually want to do anything other than have a few NSers join your page and make it noticeable to outsiders, then you need to have a big fat description of why you want to take down WME. Like "this is a page dedicated to revealing the greedy, aggressive and unnecessary behavior of Warren Miller Entertainment. Recently a suit was filed against Warren Miller, the man, by the company that bears his name, but acts in an opposite spirit. Warren Miller worked with a small filming company, Level 1 LLC..." You finish the rest, but you get the idea. Then, you link several articles, even the thread here on how to boycott WME. Then you send the link to all the skiing people you know.
 
I'm chill. What wasn't about that? I guess you are referring to the sucks part eh? You're right, that was a little blunt. But right on for making the page.
 
Yeah that is all I meant, but you were right anyway. Check it now though, a little better. Still has only been in existence for about 20 minutes.
 
lol didn't get a word of what you said ahahha, but fuck yeah level 1! and I hope my comment on their wall made sense.
 
well thats dumb. we're getting beat up all over; this and from fuel tv on face book. time for NS shitstorm on WME and fuel tv.
 
some people's responses are funny. but I wonder when level 1 is going to say something about this.

i like WME= Worst mistake ever.
 
That's a huge bummer. The only good news is that Warren was at least able to delay WME long enough to allow the release and sale of Refresh.
 
WME will go down. Please support the boycott of WME and all their sub companies including SKIING mag. Fuck WME. Nasty emails will be sent.
 
I now share (why doesn't that look likes its spelled right?) the same FB profile pic as many of you.
 
fucking dumb.... i looked at the FB page and they r getting shitted on... a customer seeing that wouldn't buy there stuff probs
 
i really wish poorboyz would stop as soon as possible but pbp isnt even close to what they used to be
 
Yes we can. I just broke my back though I will make every effort to go there. We need Level 1 type of crowds there. And we need to be respectfully discouraging patrons from going inside to watch.

POWDER/NS conglam... how are you going to respectfully participate???
 
This is our awesome nation! gotta love the lagal system..... Everything just seems to be headed downhill these days. Just gotta keep on keepin on, and F WME!

oh and we should definetly should get a pro to help us, i mean, if tanner hall could write something on his site or facebook, that would be very helpful
 
didnt read the entie threadbut in case t hasnt already bee posted im personally really shocked that jossi filmed with them last year and is guna be in there new movie. Selling out to the man just a bit?
 
It's not newschoolers that needs to get the message. It's the crusty-older un-educated skier who buys WME movies because they know of nothing else. They need to be shown in a respectful manner why this company should not be supported.

Face it, most of NS wasn't buying WME films even before this lawsuit, so alienating the freeski market is not hurting them. We need to force enough change to get them to withdraw sponsors and lose real tangible sales which consist of non-newschoolers.
 
TGR is still the wrong market. Those guys are buying TGR movies.

Decrying WME is better targeted to Epic Ski or other gaper-type forums. Better than that even, flood the sponsors and hope that they withdraw, even though it may be too late for that.
 
did you see the idea above to go and respectfully picket the premieres? that's a great way. other than that I'm just telling everyone in real life too. such a BS story any normal person will understand.
 
HE SIGNED A FUCKING CONTRACT GIVING WME RIGHTS TO USE HIS VOICE FOR COMMERCIAL APPLICATIONS AND BROKE HIS CONTRACT. FUCK YOU ARE ALL STUPID. just because you don't like their movies doesnt mean they were wrong from a legal position
 
if this were before 1999 when his clause expired, your point would be valid. however, it is not, therefor you look like an idiot, and for lack of better word, a complete douche. good day fuckwad- I hope a bird shits on your head today.
 
Update your Facebook status's with news of this Facebook fan site. Something along the lines of letting all your friends know where you stand on the issue. I'm sure every person each of you know associate you with snow sports. Thus, a strong stance taken by you will surely give them some consideration.
A Facebook status such as this would do the trick maybe. Feel free to copy if you'd like, though I threw this up pretty quickly.
"TO ALL SNOWSPORTS ENTHUSIASTS:
Warren Miller Entertainment, a massive film company originally started by legend Warren Miller but bought out by a corporation for profit, has recently filed a lawsuit against previous said Mr. Warren Miller. The case you may ask? Mr. Miller did a cameo in Level 1's recent 2009 "Refresh", having a narrator role in the altogether impressive film. WME just won the case against Warren Miller, stating that he cannot essentially appear in ANY films, because they own his image in a sense. I ask that everyone, skier, snowboarder, whoever, to boycott a company who seeks to take away from those that it gains from.

It is times like these that the American legal system disgusts me. But even more so, you shame the entire industry that you depend upon for profit. You shame yourselves. Level 1 is a company with more passion and drive than you could ever hope to attain. A true grass roots company, Level 1 didn't even make $100,000 in total profits last fiscal year, yet you choose to attack them.
