Woah Nak-el’s character was likely based off Daniel Haney?!

Everyone knows he does not skate, the question was did he ever skate and from these interviews it is clear he did not.

Sure, he was into skate culture, and his Hollywood mom basically used the shop as daycare after school and at times he was so annoying the shop employees had enough and told him to get the hell out which sounds just about right.

Yeah, if that happened these days, shop owners would just send the kids to Active.

Active does sound like a jungle gym-nasium type of place

Well, if you want to pay I think you can pre-order it. If not, Xavier has the link for the bootleg.

I thought about YTD when the bootleg popped up but after watching it for 15 min and seeing the trash intro pf characters, i shut it off with the pleasure of saving time and disk space

[Francis Xavier]

It's saved in a junk folder on my hard drive, and still on my mega files. Havent had any desire to watch it again.

Anyone look at how this flick did box office wise? I know that isn't a merit of a good movie (this was pretty shitty) but it's always interesting to see how much a shitty movie makes over a good one.

Thanks

who cares if it was true to the era or not that was straight cancer. there was no character development or learning. just nostalgia and kiddy porn. i seriously doubt that any of this was based on jonah's life (minus the doubting being accepted part)

Imagine how gayly awesome mid 00s would be.

It will just be about two white boys sitting in a room in their suburban town. One kid is in a Plan B tshirt playing Skate on an xbox 360 that's about to red ring. The other guy is glued to myspace while wearing a kr3w hoodie, he hates his dad because he says sound engineering is a dumb major to take in community college. The black guy voice of reason character that will appear in a few scenes explains that his life goal is to afford a trip to Barcelona by buying and reselling Nike Dunks and Bathing Ape on Ebay. They all lazily play games of s.k.a.t.e. sometimes and drink red bull and vodka. They are 3 or 4 years away from Mindfield so they don't realize that they can be gnarly skaters without moving to California. Oh and Bag of Suck is on constant repeat in their circles, no one's a vegan yet, and the black dude gets mad when people say WWE is better than TNA.

And the credits roll

would super wanna watch

Spirit Awards snubbed him:

Only nomination is for editing.

[heckler]

I think in order for it to be a snub, it has to be good enough to be a contender.

[Clayton]

Saw it this weekend, kind of "meh" but I'm glad I saw it. Does a better testament to what skateboarding is than most skate movies.

My biggest micro-complaint was that one of the few tricks they showed during the courthouse scene was a slappy-crook. Wasn't that kind of a whack trick to do at the time?

All of my other complaints have already been discussed. Nak did a surprisingly good job acting.

[darkslideoftheforce]

watched the bootleg, it was actually pretty good. i'll go see it at a theatre if it gets a wide release in europe (which it won't)

It was a trick that nobody would ever do back then.

How much character development/learning do you expect from a 13 yr old in the span of a few months?

Enought to justify making them the main character of a movie.

[sharkbarf]

Well it looks like Jonah is of skating now that the film is available to buy. No more interviews of his love for hip hop and skateboarding.


But really though Nakel shined and felt underused. No one else in the film held up against him.

It's not like this was a rendition of Les Miserables
Aren't they all just playing skateboarders? Such phenomenal depth
