olympic ski team....here we come!
by jonzinforpowder on 10/29/12State Theatre - MinneapolisHadn't seen a Warren Miller for four years and officially this will be the last. Very disappointed, I am sure it will appeal to some but not the likes of me. The traditional Warren Miller opening narrative is gone...huge disappointment, seems like Warren Miller was gone as well. I hear a rumur he was out, but have not clarified. The first half of the movie was ex-olympic ski racers talking about how cool they and their friends are and doing sweet GS turns down a steep mountain face, living the uber privileged life growing up in well to do Aspen / Vail families. Very corporate, first half very boring. The last half was pretty decent, lots of powder, free riding and lesser known riders rippin it up. If it wasn't for the first half this would have been an decent show. We will see what TGR dishes up for the fall, hopefully they have remained true.
