MSP 2015 Movie Trailer: “Fade to Winter” As with many ski trailers that will be dropping this summer and fall, MSP is harnessing the power or lack there of the the past winter in their trailer. They lead in with mystery and strong innuendo towards the depression we all just felt in 2014/15 while alluding to the grandeur that could be in 2015/16 or beyond. Life is like a box of chocolates, MSP, and some of candies inside taste like shit. Here’s to hoping that 2015/16 is full of caramel and almonds. Movie Trailer SnowBrains | August 18, 2015 1 Comment
New TGR Movie Teaser: “Paradise Waits” TGR just dropped a teaser for their upcoming film “Paradise Waits.” TGR has been killing it lately with their 2014 ski/snowboard movie “Almost Ablaze” beating out Red Bull/MSP’s big dollar 2-year movie project “Day of My Youth.” Almost Ablaze won Movie of the Year at the Powder Awards and Film of the Year at the IF3 Awards. Red Bull’s big money did not end up in a win for MSP last year. Not bad considering that Red Bull/MSP had two years to film their movie and TGR made theirs in only one year. This year’s coming movie looks pretty damn good according to […] Movie Trailer SnowBrains | July 28, 2015 0 Comments
The “Point Break” REMAKE Movie Trailer: I believe that like me, the behind these robberies are extreme athletes using their skills to disrupt the international markets and they don’t care who gets killed in the process.” – Keanu Reeves… I mean Special Agent Utah Our buddy from Squaw, Ralph Backstrom, is one of the snowboard stunt doubles in this new Point Break movie. It appears that they really changed the movie a lot. Mainly, the “ex-presidents” aren’t just thieves showing people that “the human spirit is still alive” but modern day Robin Hoods, robbing from the rich and giving to the poor. Cool.

Is Sport Worth Dying For? | “The Search for Freedom” Movie Tries to Answer What we have to ask ourselves is: “Is it worth dying for?” Is it? It might be. It totally depends on your perspective and where you are in your individual sport. Have we taken it all too far? Are sponsors to blame for making money off the injuries and deaths of the athletes they support? Or, is this just the natural progression of human nature? Human has always risked injury and death to see what is around the next corner. We’ve always pushed the envelope and we’ve always paid high prices for that curiosity. For that thrill. For that desire to see what else is out there. […] Movie Trailer SnowBrains | May 21, 2015 0 Comments
