« on: November 19, 2007, 08:36:53 PM »



A teenage skateboarder's life begins to fray after he is involved in the accidental death of a security guard.

I know what you're all thinking, "alright! finally a movie for 'us.' i mean we can all relate to murdering a security guard right?" No but seriously, Gus Van Sant, of Good Will Hunting, and Elephant fame made this. So check it out. Or not, I could give a shit.

Sorry, sometimes I get overly defensive on that point.

alright but is it worth the watch?
If you get inspired to skate a certain way, how concerned are you with its popularity or acceptability within the skate world
I thought skating was popular and acceptable in the skate world. Maybe I didn't get that press release.

Yay in Taiwan this is going to be available around end of Dec. From the triler I do not see it related to skateboaridng much though. Just the main character is a kid who skateboard, and the murder happened around the park, that's it.

And it was filmed in Burnside
i love opening skate talk and see mbl88 mbl88 mbl88... on every thread's last post

And it was horribly filmed in Burnside
at least the intro was. i couldn't watch after the first 2 minutes of shaky loglens followfilming where the skater was totally out of frame 75% of the time.

i made it thrugh! it s kind of hard though. should be half as long. but i have to say the end was good. dude killed a security- not skating related incident though and kind of by accident. doesn t get caught. but it s always on his mind that he killed the guy. he s writing his sory down as the movie goes on and in the end burns it.
final shot is him sitting in class kind of falling asleep and the teacher calls his name. he doesn t react. he s thinking about skating with his friends. that s what i thought was cool, cause that s what skating is to me too. whenever i skate i forget about all the bullshit.

Good job ruining it for anyone who wanted to watch it!

That does not include me. Gus Van Suck puts out utter horseshit for the most part. Last Days was one of the worst movies I've ever seen.
