Why are there is not newer motocross. Why do you guys think that there is. There has not been a theatrical Motocross movie. Not Red Bull stuff or the monster stuff following the racer. I real a movie why do you think that is
The Shop

Pit Row
I could see a low budget indie doing well if the moto community supported it, but a large budget Hollywood feature is a long shot. Most people just dont know what riding a bike feels like, how much work and talent it takes to do it well, etc, so it's hard to translate that to the audience so they care and are invested. This means MX is at a big disadvantage, for example compared to the car movies, where almost everyone knows how to drive and knows what it takes to drive well at high speeds.
The moto industry is just not that big to warrant the investment of a movie when they can get a better return on a known sport like football. Almost all the MX movie plots could be told with small adjustments using more well known sports.
