For some reason, I remember a lot more people hating The Way Out (myself among them, I thought it was hacky, pretentious trash) when it first came out. If I wanted to watch an "Art House" film by someone who isn't an artist, I'd make one myself. But hey, if that's his thing now, whatever. As someone stated, it did have personality in contrast to all of the of 3-4 minute web clips out there and I'll still probably watch this once since I'm a fan of his skating .
