hello

yeah it looks good, it does annoy me when director's cut away before the landing though, i can really only assume that it means the rider didnt stomp it.....that cant be true in this case though as the only landings they showed were bails! They'd all be dead if they bailed everything

they always do that in teasers, its a great way of showing the sort of footage/shots/tricks they have in the movie, but without giving everything away... its kind of why teasers are called teasers!

it does look like an awesome movie though!

That trailer really dose look insane - and I would love the chance to see it on the big screen.

Did I really just see a one-footed attempt at Chad's gap?

its the tease effect.....giving you 30 seconds.. and then cutting away just befroe the "Money shot"....did i say that out loud

i dont know if its just me but, although i love a good movie, i sort of prefer the "Flip side" episodes that coincide wiht each seasons movie? MORE than the actual movie itself??

im the same, they make intersting documentaries about how they made the films and really good teasers but i find their films really boring.

hahahaha same as me then, they do all seem a bit "samey".. but then what films are not these days? Isensevens have a fresh kind of humour and attitude, but other than that most of it dont appeal to me??

i am finding that its not the riding that is making me like a movie, but more down to the soundtrack. the tricks are all the same? so its the music that wins me over..

I'm the same and it's the reason I love the Robotfood movies and am a bit so-so about TITA.

Have you see December or the Airblaster movie yet Andy? They're certainly worth watching.

totally agree, and Absinthe tends to make great teasers but so-so movies. However I saw Neverland at a movie theater and it was freakin awesome.

The flipside episodes are great. Better than the movies? maybe.

Buy them? There's a good post there to the August film, which will give you an idea of the Airblaster movie. December is a different kettle of fish and more of a documentary of Travis Parker and Andrew Crawford shredding Europe for a month.

I love Robotfood films for their individual style/rider interviews etc but I gotta say TITA had a great soundtrack including two brilliant tracks from one of the best bands to ride to: M83.

Agree with whoever mentioned the cheeky humour of Isenseven though, their films really do it for me, especially Lets Go Get Lost.

M83 and MGMT were the outstanding tracks by far on TITA, the rest were a bit meh in my opinion and musical taste.

Yeah I'm not a fan of Absinthe films generally tbh, though I've only seen Ready and Optimistic. I did enjoy the docu. stuff though. I really don't like the film, genuinely the 'style' and 'effect' does nothing for me at all, I'd rather they shot it all in crystal clear HD, with superfast cameras.
