Grossing
« on: March 20, 2018, 09:29:08 AM »
I've always wondered how many copies of a new video skate companies were able to sell back in the day. I remember hearing Fully Flared was the top grossing skate film at the time, but how many copies were sold? Back then it was actually profitable to make a video, nowadays if you break even that's a win. Anyone have the scoop?

Grossing is the act of warming frozen burritos in your bung hole.

Bam said 411 cut him a check for a Mil for the CKYs so I think they were moving some units.

Grossing is where you spit diatribe against people who skate the wrong way on your youtube series for years only to end up with a son that pushes mongo

docking grossing:

when two grossos, one circumsized, one uncircumsized, put their heads together and the uncircumcised grosso rolls his extra foreskin over the head of the other grosso's penis.

It’s not true!

i worked at Coliseum and that’s my YouTube account you linked to. The million copies sold thing was a joke; the video had that on there the day it came out. We sold the rights to Unicorn when they were still the largest skate video distributor and they claimed that it was their highest selling video ever. I’m sure Fully Flared outsold Wonderfull Horrible Life

grossing: when you're about to blow early on your girl, but you think about Jeff Grosso instead of Ted Williams and everything calms back down.

Any idea how much the rights were sold for? I heard Matt and Arty made out pretty well on it.
At least when you're a washed-out hipster douchebag in NY, you can milk it at some decent looking, hard to skate spots. In LA you're just a tan-lined faggot in a school yard somewhere.
