Alright, I'll do a short one since I didn't yet.

Dan G ---

Muppets Video - really good, I like the style they had from mixup to interview type stuff. decent footy

Arse Marks- actually really suprized me with how funny their shit was like the snow shovel on the car made me laugh my balls off, class A work guys, I hadn't seen much of you before that and I am definately a fan now.

AssTreMe - Good shit guys especially coming out of israel, must be hard to throw a kickflip with an AK 47 sticking down your dick.

Ghost Monkeys of Chaos - I've seen skating before, lots of it and really good skating, nothing groundbreaking here, but entertaining.

Trailer Park Mafia - I don't really like them that much, but a few of the things in this video actually made me think otherwise, I wouldn't say im overly into them yet but it definately a start. I'm sure alot of people from the regular population will get a kick out of it.

Who Gives a Shit - Im confusing them with short bus in my mind, where was the one of the the 4000 pound guy with tits that was pretty gross... ummm I dunno did they do pranks, whatever ..

Extreme Harma - umm trying to remember, from what I remember it was a decent part, nothing that blew my mind though, hadn't really seen much of you guys before either, hopefully this vid can give you a boost

Death vs Luke Hadley - if you don't like backyard wrestling, you don't like this. However backyard wrestling is what gave me my start in stunts and I enjoyed the part. the scab thing I can't watch, its seriously gross and leaky puss disgusting. I can handle when things are happening to me easier.

Short Bus - all pranks, some made me laugh some didn't.. looks like all their footy is circa 1991 I think they were all pranks... I may be mixing them up with wgas, but on the other hand im a flaming alcoholic

from what I remember this is a basic run down. Usually by the time I get to my part in the movie I am so drunk I dont know what I am watching. the video ended up being alot better than I would have expected in the start, especially with so much doubt with mike and that. I am glad I was a part of it and maybe not volume 2 but I would like to drop a few stunts in an upcoming release. peace inside out

First off I would like to say:

Moody get yourself a new editor. The guy did the DVD no justice at all.


Here we go...

Dan G
Loved Dans section, he always makes me laugh. Some quality shit in their. My 2nd best section on the DVD.

Muppets Video
Always liked the Muppets, shame I had seen more or less everything in the section. :(

Arse Marks
Again I seen some of their section on online clips and such, but still some good stuff int here to watch. After watching there section I kinda had the urge to buy one of their DVD's.

AssTreMe
Loved it, Ex nice work man. I was glad the DVD included the skating and such, content was good.

Ghost Monkeys of Chaos
My fav section by far on the DVD, loved watching the skating, was one of the only bits I could watch over and over. Was a shame Happyjack didnt die, but meh.

Trailer Park Mafia
Pure bollocks. Fireworks for more or less a full section. I would rather watch Scum Videos. Seriously...

Who Gives a Shit
I cant remember these guys section to well, but I think I was kinda impressed with them.

Extreme Harma
Again nice section, made me want to see more from you guys.

Death vs Luke Hadley
Again, was pure bollocks, was just a guy been thrown into a metal thing and slam on floor by some huge bitch for about 10 minutes. I think the burn licking thing was about best they could do.

Short Bus
Again I cant remember these guys section to well, but I think I was kinda impressed with them.

Overall:

Moody get a new editor seriously.

Liked the cover art.

75% of the content was good shit.

Cant complain really, I got it for free.

If me purchasing HGC2 depended on this release then I would only purchase if three was a new editor.

I give this: Image file not present in the recovered backup Image file not present in the recovered backup Image file not present in the recovered backup Image file not present in the recovered backup Image file not present in the recovered backup Image file not present in the recovered backup / 10

Dan G - This wasn't his best, but still some purely sick stuff. Also the flaming skateboard failed, you should stick to multilation, it's obviously what you do best. Worth watching for the terrible puns alone: "now that's what I call a finger nail!"

Muppets Video - The shot of the car at the start of the segment was pure sex. Mixup was great too, with some nice car stunts and good stuff in general.

Arse Marks - Good stuff. Got me interested in watching AM11, which I did and that was good too. Definitely an underrated team and very entertaining.

Ghost Monkeys of Chaos - Awesome name for a start. These guys surprised me 'cause they look so young. They had some okay stunts but some good skating bails.

Trailer Park Mafia - Not great. They had some okay content but some of the segments dragged on, like the hair smoking.

Death vs Luke Hadley - I think this segment was Moody's personal favourite. Just a hunch, I know he's into the underground wrestling and that. Interesting idea, again, I like the name, but there's only so often you can watch a guy get piledrived before it gets really boring. And wtf was with that editing?

Some groups I didn't mention because I totally forgot what your segments were like.
However, I do remember the guy that stood on the ice on the washing line thing that pinged up, that was awesome; and so was the guy who got yanked off his feet, and when his mate asked what that smack sound was he says simply "my head". Oh, and the poo eating was also a great idea, fucking sick prank, and well-filmed too. So you know who you are, those were all awesome bits of the DVD.

Overall, it was nothing stellar but there were some highlights. Editing was terrible, really bland and uninteresting. Music selection was fine I guess. I'm glad I didn't pay to see it.

Dan G - There was alot of random parts in this section, some of it seemed to go on for a bit. The stunts were good. I enjoyed it overall but I played it up a bit in my head, still very good nonetheless.

Muppets Video - I got a feel for your group and what you guys are all about. I liked the footage alot.

Arse Marks - Very daring stuff. You guys take it to the limits in terms of pushing your luck. Quite solid footage, the stunts weren't as strong as perhaps other parts were, but I really liked this section overall.

AssTreMe - One of the best on the DVD. I liked the range and the angles. What camera do you guys use?

Ghost Monkeys of Chaos - They seemed to fill this section with more bails than actual skating. Me and Sam both agreed that you guys need to bring out a skating DVD. You got talent boys.

Trailer Park Mafia - Funny. Made me laugh alot. Entertaining stuff despite nothing that is too groundbreaking. It just goes to show that entertainment in the smaller things is still plausable.

Who Gives a Shit - I wanna see these guys on here. Alot of this footage was golden and made me laugh so hard. The eating of the poo was great. lol

Death vs Luke Hadley - I am really into BYW so this was right up my alley. Loved it.

Short Bus - Funny shit. Another group I wanna see on these forums.


This is cIRca btw. Oops.

Already done a review but heres what I thought where the best, in order:

GMC
Arse Marks
Muppets
Dan G
DVLH
AssTreme
TPM
Short Bus
eXtreme Harma
WDGAS

To be honest, I've never even watched it all the way through, I've only seen like one or two of the sections all the way through, sometimes the clips where stretched out too long, like the beginning of the Arse Marks section, thats the only thing I didn't really like about their part.

I know a few groups saved alot of their content/their best stuff wasn't used, which isn't their fault, but..... I'd rather watch any other groups solo DVD.
But thats only because of how it was set-out.

First off, I haven't really watched the dvd much due to me being so dissapointed with our section, & the editing.

Dan G - Haven't watched yet :blush:

Muppets Video - Remembered this as being one of the best segments, very entertaining & watchable.

Arse Marks - Definitely one of the best sections on the DVD, the footage was cool, & some very :O clips. Can't wait for the new arse tape nigs.

AssTreMe - Not as bad as extazy made it out to be, I liked this alot. Their bush jumps take me back to when homegrown was fun for me, & I find this group very watchable. One of my favourite groups.

Ghost Monkeys of Chaos - A huge letdown for me, Moody's editor did not look at much of our footage, we could've had a much stronger [and longer] section.. I also thought the song was crap & didn't fit with our footage. It's nice that you guys liked it but the bad choice of footage pissed me off. Also, a LOT of that footage was 2 - 3 years old ~ our weaker stuff. [/tears]

Trailer Park Mafia - I remembered this section just being horrible, there was a part with 2 or 3 minutes without any music, and it just looked ridic. I may be biased because I hate buckwild but this was weak. They had some good footage in there, but the production let them down.

Who Gives a Shit - [Can't remember]

Extreme Harma - [Can't remember]

Death vs Luke Hadley - The wrestling guys? This was probably my third favourite, because it was so entertaining watching some kid just getting chucked around & stuff. Mindless & entertaining.

Short Bus - All I remember was the guy getting towed on fruitboots [?] Good clip anyway..


Overall, our section tainted this DVD for us, I was pretty let-down but hopefuly the next HGC dvd will be a lot better. Moody, Fire your editor.
