Drug trafficking in the state of Idaho is serious. Marijuana is hard on heart and lungs. Damages the male reproductive system, testicular cancer. The chemical dependence leads to psychosis, schizophrenia and potentially other mood disorders. Makes people lazy and socially awkward, damages an individuals productivity and family life. The fact that you're bragging about trafficking in this dangerous chemical weapon makes me believe that you don't give a damn about your "friends" or the rule of law in the state you choose to live in. I do hope you are found and held accountable for your crimes after posting and bragging about these crimes.

Is this PROOFESHHHUHnal?

Hollywood would be more interested in the storyline of a person of color racing a predominantly white sport than having any actual interest in moto lol

He's right, look at the new F1 movie that Brad Pitt is making. Its goes right by the Hollywood script. A aging F1 driver brought in to help tame and mentor a wild young black F1 driver, it could not get any more of a typical Hollywood movie.

I,m glad the Stewart,s pulled the plug. Hollywood movies of anything in sports are sooo cheesy. Last good movie is from 20 yrs ago Taladaga nights.  Herby the movie about the beatle 53 was good but that the early 70,s. That’s a motor sport movie kinda of more of a comedy tho.

I was going to take the low road and talk about how they only wanted to promote him cause he's black. Props to the Stewarts for not even working with those people at all. Hollywood has made good work of completely destroying themselves over that time period. A lot of people who used to work in Hollywood are just unemployed they mostly closed up shops. Hollywood is more interesting in grooming your kids now.

The RC story would be the story of being ‘trained by a woman’ and the same anti-woke-tards would cry woke.


The black man succeeding in a white sport is a story with more depth and human complexity than any other moto story could have… but you don’t want that, you want a montage of 150 wins and a training regimen.  Cool 😎 


The F1 movie looks bad becuase it looks bad but mostly because it’s told from the POV of the boring character. Have people not seen the Karate Kid… you don’t make the mentor the main character - the young upstart is the story. And in Karate Kid it was a which guy with an Asian mentor.  In the F1 movie, considering the story here, it should be the black protagonist with Brad Pitt mentor.  Its perspective. 
 

If anyone saw Killers of the Flower Moon — it was ruined by perspective, by choosing the perspective of a bankable movie star and not the perspective of the most interesting character with the most interesting story… 


‘overcoming the odds’ is the story.  An often unwelcome person entering a new world and dominating is the story.

Bull Durham would like to have a word with you.

 

I think the problem with a James Stewart movie is that Hollywood would focus solely on the racism he faced, rather than his ridiculous talent that helped redefine a sport. And the biggest takeaway for anyone who watched it would be that MX fans are just a bunch of racist, booger eating window lickers.

Haven’t seen it, I was 2. I’ll check it out.  

And are we not though?

Spend enough time around here and you realise moto fans are amalgamation of mental retardation, racism, sexism and general inability to comprehend anything beyond what’s right in front of them… 


We are the booger eating window lickers but we just don’t like when it’s pointed out to us. The only sports fans that even come close are UK ‘football’ fans. We are dumb as a box of dildos but not nearly as much fun.

I imagine at some point while meeting to go over the script, James said, "but under the helmet, I'm a racer". 

The suits nodded and giggled with minor amusement. Then they continued on with the narrative.

Big James grabs Bubba and walks out the door. 

I mean yeah that’s what happens. But also that’s most movies about anything, the human drama is the drama. 

Motocross is a tough sport to dramatize in a non documentary sense. Helmets, noise and no communication with the pits makes it hard to create emotionally compelling races. 

TGO does it with interviews and VO and lots of individual stories following different riders for each race.  Interview state the states and emotional feeling in a moment, VO explains what is happening in a moment and we can cut in and out of the race to the interview etc etc. A real time narrative drama where the outcome of the race is the drama and the race is given a large amount of screen time is near on impossible to be good has never been done as far as I have seen. Hence why any decent sports movie is a story about people not about sports.  

See MoneyBall, challengers, iron claw, slap shot, the wrestler, whip it, Ferrari etc etc etc. but even those don’t have the some inherent narrative challenges of moto bikes.  Car movies have communication with the pits and endless camera mounting and dummy cars to make it possible.  

They tried with XXX, CHARLIES ANGELS and SUPERCROSS THE MOVIES using green screen and it was just lame and resorted to conversations while riding.  It was weird.

There is a lot of truth to this on the commercial side.

WoW what a lost opportunity by not going through with the movie. 

There must have been something really bad that the Stewart's did not agree with because all I can see by doing this is a win-win for everyone including the sport. 

I've always enjoyed watching Sam Jones interviews seems like a top-notch guy, total professional. When he said, "I really wanted to make this movie more than any other". You could tell it was from the heart. 

Maybe they need to rekindle the fire and see if they can get this going once again.

Thanks for posting this topic.

Killers of the Flower Moon chose that perspective so you had to spend the entire movie experiencing the tension and discomfort of knowing what he was doing. Marty chose to forgo the twist ending or big reveal of who the killer was, which has been done in every thriller movie ever, and instead forced you to think about what a piece of shit Ernest is the whole runtime. It did catch me off guard but I don't think it ruined it.

Yeah no, fair enough, people loved the movie for obvious reasons - But I think your assertion that it was either: see this from the perspective of the evil white man OR have a twist ending reveal the evil white man as the evil white man is flawed. 

We can know who the evil white person is, while Lily Gladstone or others try and figure it out. -- Drawing the tension out, feeling the tension in a stronger way.... BUUUUT the star needs to be bankable to get the budget to do this film this way... AAAAND Scorcese adapting a book from an old white man, initally written from the FBI POV, then changed to the evil old white men, then in an attempt to atone for making another violent movie, added a radio play and 4th wall break, written in post production... I hated the movie so much... But so many people loved it including far more learned film people than me.

I have even more respect for James now. I wouldn't sell my family's legacy to Hollywood for ANY amount of money. Something HAD to be wrong for the Stewarts to ghost a 50+ million dollar movie. I think something is being left out here...

You really think a bunch of celebrities/writers/producers in Hollywood are going to tell the REAL reason the movie isnt getting made? Not a chance.
