I still find it odd that there is so much demand for film makers to create easy going, light and happy movies like this... yet they continue to feed us crappy dark, depressing, and boring garbage.
80s were the best for movies. people just understood aesthetics back then...
I start skatboading around 85, did it for 7yrs it was good but the cops all the time stop me for nothing,that was wrong then I pick it back up around 2000,it diffrent now some do it for fun because they love it, and the other ones do it to make them selfs look good for the ladies and they dont know what to do.
Okay movie, but why no mention of anything like the internet or cell phones or ipods in this movie? In fact, they mention none of the technology of the last 20 years! What is up with that? Didn't anybody have a Facebook page back then?
i for some reason had seen this at the movies and then had seen this enough to know every word. and yabel is in sooo many movies. the guy with the button up shirt.
skating has evolved to a new era music shouldnt make you or break you get over it and change you loser's all the best skater's in the world listen to anything they want plus that shit is lame that you used to listen to .
the only thing that sucked was the music... they should of had the faction,black flag, minor threat, the sucidial tendenices,jfa and agent orange for the music!
Its sad that most skaters my age listen to rap, emo, and pop now insted of punk and thrash. I hate how most skateparks blast akon and m&m rather than black flag or the faction
its a sport dumbass.back in the 70s skating wasnt considered a sport but a way to get around and to recreate the movements of surfing.longboarding is exactly like that.i bet u never even tried a longboard before.
@BigDumbJerk I skate but aint an emo infact I listen to DnB Indie etc, If I were honest with you theres a new breed of skaters none of this gangster or emo shit.
@BigDumbJerk Listen to Heavy Metal...great proof is the Megadeth´s T-shirt in the movie, now they think at least here in Brazil Skate is a thing different of the movie, and they think for to be Skater they must list to RAP or Better CRAP....They Never watched Dio - Wild One Video Clip , here they clothes use tooooooo muchhhh looose.... so Rediculous....they no nothing about the Essence which inspired this film.....
I didn't understand how important this movie was when it came out. But now that I'm grown up I'm smart enough to understand its message: the raddest thing you could possibly do in life is skateboard. That's why I've dedicated my life to becoming gnarly. I practice so that someday I can attempt the hardest skateboard trick ever: the monster cookie pinwheel.
Mike Mcgill was Christian Slaters stuntman meaning everytime you thought you saw Christian Slater skating it was Mike Mcgill from the Bones Brigade crew
This movie fucking rules. I always loved this movie, ever since the first day i saw it. This is my favorite Christian Slater Movie next to Heathers, ans that's saying something.
i remember turning the channel and seeing JUST the credits to this movie, and it had a cool song.. so I waited until the very end of the credits to figure out what the movie was. Then i watched it and it was awesome!
I was heavy into skating when this movie came out. I even skipped school to go see it. A simpler time. I was a security guard at a bank a few years ago and some kids were skating on the property. The manager told me to tell them to leave. I went outside and said,"Hey guys,I'm supposed to be busting you guys balls about skating here,but I just wanted to ask if you think you can ollie those four steps over there?" Fight the power.
