heler en svak kanditat. syns ikke msp har hatt no skikkelig bra siden the frontline og måten dem er på. hørt dem har gjort endel ting dem ikke burde gjort.
Her er en liste over ting en kar sa i moviemaker cult forumet på ns:
Just my opinion but..
Since I end up doing ALOT of stuff on the business side of skiing now, I know how it is with movie sponsors and athletes in films, ect
I just cannot believe that MSP pulls half the shit they do. There is a large difference between a film like 1242 (all Oakley), and the shenanigans (yes, i said shenanigans) they pull with HH and Salomon/K2 as sponsors.
MSP is taking what should be a purely fun job, and infusing it with such deals where they are actually altering skiings direction (athletes sign with NEW companies to ride in a MSP film)
if Steve Winter has any say in the direction of skiing, then I dont feel good about where he can make things head.
And i've never met him, he might be a great guy...but i'm not big on the way they choose to handle things. I mean we help the film companies our athletes are IN (not talking about my movie and THAT job), we dont say "you ride for X company, or you arent getting incentives). I dont believe that telling a skier he has to be sponsored by certian companies is good for our sport. Hell, its like the Olympics and their 'favorite' sponsors.
So yeah, leave politics outve our sport as much as possible, cause I just dont like it
The year 1242 Was released it out sold MSp hence the big commotion and distibution fiasco that entailied last year with wski106 removing the top gun footage from the orginal... once again msp whinning to get their way.
In Brief To My knowledge.....
1. 1242 outsold the msp through VAS Distribution that year.
2. MSP was bitter the next year that a PBP movie outsold them more or less and saw the advanced copy of Wski106 As VAS Was putting it up for distribution, steve winter more ore less called up VAS and said if they sold WSKI106 without having Iberg take out The Sampled Scenes From Top GUN in it, then they would not have VAS Distribute Their movies never again, and since ski movies have been distributed Through VAS MSP has sold the most overall making them a Client that VAS would want to have so they can make money. The issue here is that MSP called out the athletes and people that he works with in the industry making him less of a man then to rather progress mpvies and the skiing then to rather make a few more bucks then the other guy. the issue here is GREED..
My Rant And THoughts,, and the knowledge that i was given.. Sorry THis was longer then expected./
the real reason for the hate was that, VAS puts their top seller on the cover, so they were going to put pbp on the cover the next year, but msp wasn't havin that, so they told vas that if pbp was on the cover then msp would be going elsewhere.
as for the top gun shit, yeah they just just flat out called em out on it. which in this small ski world is bull shit.
