Who else is stoked? Hour and a half to go and I've got my pre order on iTunes locked in. Just preemptively making this thread for when the movie comes out. Hope it lives up to the expectations.

bighomieflockThe movie definitely departed from the usual level 1 type of movie and had more of a Videograss feel to it.

after buying it on itunes and watching it a few times, ive gota say that for the most part i was definitely expecting a better movie. shit was wack on the way they used the subtitles that got old really fast. and what a shitty ending to a ski flick. but on the other-hand the skiing was amazing, i guess what im getting at is i loved the skiing in the movie, but hated how it was edited , and i do have to say that the soundtrack sucked ass imo. but like i said , the skiing was fire, but music and editing wise, i feel it was a letdown to be completely honest. still happy i bought it tho...

I cant believe Im talking about next year already, but how dope would it be if next years film was called "More" and was just the heaviest most insane parts ever? Could be kind of a cool juxtaposition

good idea man, i cant believe level 1 didnt think to make a movie of "the heaviest and most insane parts ever".

who had last segment? i keep hearing it was anti climactic. that's gotta be the simplest thing about a ski movie: make sure the first and last segments are banger. you don't do that and youre shooting yourself in the foot already

dunno why everybody is hating on this so much, not as good as sunny or partly cloudy but mainly because it was so different-all about the skiing which is good enough for me.

Why are people hating on the soundtrack? Just because you don't like the style of music doesn't mean the soundtrack sucks. The soundtrack is made of a few different genres which is dope, the song with the jump session gave me chills while watching, the song in Khai's segment was good too, and the freddie gibbs song for magnus' part destroyed. The only part of the soundtrack I didn't like was adam delorme's airplane noises and the song for Sig's segment- because I used to listen to that song a lot for some reason.

The soundtrack creates a tone, a tone shouldn't be the same for every segment, they made a dynamic soundtrack which keeps the segments fresh. Level 1 is no Stept in the soundtrack game but they still do a great job each year.

Prize is to film with them next year, typically the superunknown movie doesn't have a segment the year they win it. For example, Magnus won last year, this was his first segment with Level 1 (which is why he was able to be nominated for rookie of the year).

Not sure why everyone's hating on Less on here. Everyone I've talked to outside of Newschoolers loved it. Sometimes I get the feeling people see the first couple opinions in a thread then agree with whatever they are.

Overall enjoyed watching "Less". Only complaint is that it lacked the continuity or flow (for lack of a better word) present in movies like "All Damn Day". Still had sick skiing though, my favorite segs being Berman's, Magnus', LSM, and McChesney's.

it had potential to be really awesome if it was filmed and edited right, and instead it was too cinematic for what looked like a fun session.

Talk about trying to rip the sick vibes from the final segment of TSP's "Act Natural" with that weak ass spring skiing thing at the end.

No. No more of this "doing your own thing" unless you are on the Sammy or Candide level. It's so fucking dumb and it's detracting from ski movies.

One of those situations where my boyfriend was watching and I just got so drawn in I couldn't stop watching. Loved the music. Shots were awesome, I epecially loved seeing things done I haven't seen before. I feel like there was a lot of style in this movie and it often just made me sit there and grin. As if my stoke wasn't high enough, this just pushed it higher.

I´m really missing the "old" level 1 riders like hornbeck, wallisch, p-white, c-lo, dadali etc. just feel like som of the new "TSP-riders" don´t have same steeze that I expect the riders in a level 1 movie to have. But don´t get me worng, these guys rides hard as f..ck, but just don´t feel like they are level 1 riders...

Meh... I feel like there was an era for Level 1 where they were on top. After watching less it appears as if that is over. (no disrespect to the talented athletes featured)

I thought the film was great. I actually liked the soundtrack and felt like each song fit each skier in their own way. Ex. Khai's segment, which was awesome.

Overall, a lot of creative and fun to watch shots. I'll admit the backcountry was a tad lame at times but I still liked the vibe. The editing could of been better but nothing that really ruined the experience for me.
