Al. I fucking hope you'll send me something else to watch than what I saw today.
The fact that I was drunk when I watched it might have been a factor.
The movie might have been something else...
BUT!!!!!!!!!!
There wasnt much that mad me enjoy this movie...
Something positive: The skating was fucking impressive... but the editing was very basic.............. very basic.... basic...
Yates is legend. Legend he is. But not that much of a legend(This makes me wonder what all balls have to give) to carry it. And I didnt even see him that much.
There were some nice fights. But even old Jonesy fights more aggressive and has a better technic, even drunk, than any of those on tape.
Comparing to the standards that im used to with Ben(might be proper to add that it was yrs a go since old Ben has edited anything) this wasnt even close editing wise.
Maybe because iv'e been waiting for some of the 'old school' HG groups to release someting mind blowing. And part of me is wondering what the fuck happened... you have so much in you and so much going on but yet you 'IMO' fail to deliver... I do not know how its possible...
Not that the footage is THAT bad... but most of all the editing lets me down... maybe its just he pre-version of the movie... but still....
I had some newish(considering HG) friends over at bens house(theyve not seen much HG) that saw your movie and after this they saw our over 4yr old peice of shit rip off movie... which surprisngly(they were not afraid of getting a beating) impressed them more...(believe me I like being a douche but im actualy honest)
Sure they might say what they said out of courtesy as told them that our stuff is outdated and do not match the standards of todays HG.
Al, I really feel like its just you... youre pushing HG stuntwise but obviously(im sorry) fail. You have a one man group... BLL is strongly with you in most stunts that impresses(+yates in some). Al youre one of the most influent persons in HG these days... and this release just makes me very, very sceptic of HG releases to come.
It's pretty damn obvious that GOMP ran out of stuff to give us.... even DR have runt out of enough footage to give us a DVD.
DR is fucking legend. But is it all just hype? is there ever going to be something else than hype? Im not convinced(havent been for yrs) anymore.
I feel that the biggest mistake that HG groups have made is to try and give out their own DVD's and in doing so all groups have kept their footage for themselves in order to make an own DVD.
I feel that we(RIP/OFF) should've never kept footage from our HG brothers and friends. Because in the end what's the difference? Most of our 'fans' would've still bought our DVD anyways.
But the point is... FUCK IT! who cares if 20 something exlusive(HG ppl) ppl has seen your DVD!? Why is it worh keeping a secret for these dedicated ppl our DVD has been bought by ~25 HG posters and ~70 other ppl that are by no means conected to these forums.
Do you think you have someting new? something that wiould make the big crow go 'OH' ? And in cosideration of rescent articles would it be worth it?
Okay if you make it... what does 20-50 views even matter?
So in conclusion, keeping footage from these forums has ofcouse been the down fall of many classic HG groups and these very forums.
Why keep footage from the ppl who do the same stuff and are able to constructively critize and even advice you on your projcet.
Keep footage from the HG community is something that makes me very skeptic about the DR and GOMP DVD success.
So have we been anticipating the DR and GOMP DVD's in vain?
In all seriousness it's in my opinion pretty clear that the only thing you can gain from releasing bits and peices on these forums is gain.
We released our DVD yrs a go? new then? meh. GOMP and DR were there already(~3yrs a go) something new to give now? I doubt it...
Dont keep your footage from these forums... only thing you get from releasing(atleast in the VIP) is gain.
ps. BLL is something... I hope you dont keep out on us.
