Every time I see Show and prove I laugh. but for my top movies and reasons why here you go:
1. [photo]play:
For some reason Theory-3 movies are always good no mater how many times you have watched them, you can always put them in and your good to go for about 40 min, their movies also have a good balance of big mountain, back country, park and urban; while the skiers are always pushing the sport in all area. Add in that I have never felt the need to skip a segment in any of their movies (something I can not say of any other movie I have watched the exception being Ski Movie 3), a sick trailer, and the high level of creativity Jeff and the others at Theory-3 have and you have movie of the year,
Also watch the segment that is available at:
http://www.theory-3.com/Special_photoplay.mov if you don't believe me, fucking amazing.
2. Ski Porn:
Poor boyz has one thing that theory-3 can not realy compeat with and that is access to the high level skiers and the money to send them heli skiing, Ski Porn will be like [photo]play in that it will have a wide range skiing, but with a little less urban. however the medicore trailers lead me to believe that Ski Porn will be similar to the rest of the poor boyz movies: basicaly the same movie but with better skiing each year. As for why beats out Long Story Short and others will be: budgit, divers skiing, and Andy Maher.
3. Long Story Short/Anomaly
They tie for third becuase this is where different people split up, both companies have made really sick movies in the past, but the urban lovers from the east just wont sit through a TGR flick and us big mountain guys get tierd of urban preety fast. However the editing and feel for both Level 1 and TGR movies are top notch. And they both came out with great trailers this year.
4. Witness:
Watch the trailer bitch best one made all season, lower because I have never seen any other movies by they before
There are your top five movies of the year, go buy them.
