It'll be good. I hope it's even longer than Hypnosis, that'd be rad.

Who's going to fill the grungy, broke-as-hell filmer niche now that Clay has hit the big time?

Sweet Trailer. I'll wait to see what the film turns out to be. Hypnosis had great trailers too, but overall I thought it wasn't as good as Synopsis. I also felt like I had seen Hypnosis before, IMO It wasn't much different from Synopsis.

I agree completely, apparently they don't teach reading/speaking skills in film school. The footage looks great though.
Out of all the things....

You guys have to complain about a voice in the teaser?

Since people are so picky about their videos why don't they make one.....It gets real old hearing people complain about the smallest things.

There are multiple voices in the trailer, some are Clay the others are riders.

Why would we want to listen to Clay and some of the fastest guys in the world? Lets get the movie trailer anouncer from the Geico commercial.

Well listen to him. It appears he's really trying to be professional with this production, but he's stumbling over words attempting to sound dramatic in his teaser. For me, it put a damper on the entire teaser and is almost embarassing as it reflects the highest quality video production in the mountain bike world. The footage looks great and i will definetely buy the film, but as he usually puts out two teasers, i didn't think a little critiquing would be such a bad thing. I'm sorry.

Also, i've attempted to make mountain bike videos and it's very difficult. I applaud what you (DG) are doing and you definetely are talented, sorry if I offended.

The teaser looks great. I like the narration style, reminds me of Dust to Glory. To me it kinda highlights the "regular guys doing extraordinary things," aspect of downhill racing that Dust to Glory brought out of offroad racing. Some of the best parts of that movie to me were the commentary by people like Ricky Johnson and the other racers, and Dana Brown as he watched it all unfold. Gives it a more personal feel in my opinion. Can't wait to see it.

No worries,

I agree on the whole voice thing. But I try and look past the small things like that.

Anyway, it will be a sick video for sure.

Does anyone else get chills down their spine watching this?

I get them every single time.

I will be buying this movie no doubt.

neither here nor there
the customer is usually a complainer.

you cant please everyone so why bother trying. when you're making a video, you have to make something that you're happy with and then let the haters hate. so clay doesnt want to hire voice over talent? big deal. everyone's going to find something they dont like.
