- that slam was fucked, could have easily ended his career
- penny footage
- we all know his waifu should have been JK in cosplay
- nosepick on the fridge was dope
- I'm seriously concerned about Grec's mental health
- No boots in slow mo?

so good. last year the video he came out with was one of my favs because it was not like anything else, this will feel like the same. The nosepick in his house on the fridge was dope!

Question: A new up and coming skater couldn't get traction with content like this could they?

It's all about personality and charisma so yes a new guy could pull it off if he has those.

More skateboarding less art..
I do think we really need more art on skateboarding. The videos we're watching are so saturated and bland. Jim is really making something new, something fresh. But yeah i feel what you're saying. But this was way better than Ty evans flat earth.

The only thing I couldn't get with was the one hole in his shirt that he made to show his tattoo thru.  Defenetly seemed intentional, which puts a sour taste on it for me.  Weird Clark Kent vibe.

I grew up with the films that this is inspired by, so when I watch this it seems unoriginal, flat, and other than the skate footage [which is great] completely without any real substance. That said, in comparison to the business and company thing this is a fucking masterpiece.

same, just doesn't do it for me. Still worth watching for the skate footage and I gotta hand it to him for taking his career in a new direction that isn't totally lame

Can someone reup that brillitant fake Greco trailer with the voiceover? “A film by Jim Greco....written by Jim Greco...starring Jim Greco”

Everytime I post it up anywhere Greco gets it removed ahha. But I made this:



I love Greco. I celebrate the guy's entire catalogue.

Pretty great. I liked Year 13 and whatever the other one was called, but Jobs? Never!! (other than the title) was easily the best. I hope Jim continues to make these every year or so. If everybody was making 20 minute edits it would be a nightmare, but since Jim is the only one it is a refreshing break from the deluge of one minute IG edits dropping constantly.

As a film school graduate I'm a little sad with that tiny bit of HD footage was thrown in towards the end. It just broke the visual consistency, although I imagine most folks wouldn't even notice something like that.
I like to imagine a print of this film being projected in 16mm.
Warm Up Zone. Let's watch some skateboarding videos.

Greco is just hipster trash. He's just like all the other assholes that try to live in a time that was before they are born. Nice 70s car and threads bro. It's just skateboarding, not mean streets. Take some inspiration from eastern exposure zero. Im not saying he isnt talented. He just comes off as a pretentious tool and i cant even look at the guy without laughing. How many phases has this guy been through. I remember him saying he was never going to change his image again(He was in yet another Thunders phase at the time) in theskateboard mag back in the day.

I meant that he should just take a no bullshit approach to making a video. Instead he wants us to believe he's just as badass as a gangster, but he's just a pro skateboarder.

that was root beer but what did they shoot in his ankle? 'in the bottom of every bottle of root beer, there's a syringe in it' -- jim greco.
the root beer was his trigger and next thing you know he's throwing himself offa cadillacs so the nurses will put fentanyl in his feet.
dill is a narcissist but he's not as good looking as gentleman jim greco.
dill is the kramer-esque quirky neighbor whiile greco is leading man material.

People taking themselves too seriously ranks high on things I hate but I’m a Baker fanboy so let’s see.

Just clicked play and that back lip on the car bail was HARSH. He took it like a G. Looked like he knew he was fucked but still barely flinched.
