murder of couriers trailer 4 theatrical.mpeg

[austintylerlarge]

That guy in the beggining is a douche. You're not a badass.

[brennanalcantara]

DIKES ON BIKES.

[foyay]

man i hate when people do shit that makes them happy, why cant they just stop since so many people obviously arent into it.

some people are so selfish and ignorant lol

[dirtydove250]

As a former messenger this movie is a little embarrassing. Almost getting hit by four buses and PUNCHING someone? Is this guy for real? Terrible portrayal! We all know that couriers (not posers, but actually working as a courier) with flashy track bikes and designer bags are becoming extinct. It is too bad because this an industry that is a sanctuary for people who are generally unemployable and is not McDonald's or changing bed sheets in a cheap motel.

[kloeser]

i was on the road in van 2 years ago.... I dont see anyone in this video that was riding then. o and lol @ 2:27.

[colomin007]

what's the namo of the song?

[charles289]

Wow, complete right-on-red-run-into-innocent­-taxi FAIL!!!!

Fail to stop? Check! Fail to turn tightly enough? Check? Getting angry at someone else because you're riding like an idiot so that you can look cool on a video? Triple check!

[foyay]

@charles289 i believe it was a race, also when does the guy get angry?

[MaxMBeatty]

Watching this for the first time I thought it was a parody and had a good chuckle, but nope, it's real....

[SkullLikeASecret]

Damn, that bitch can't corner. He went two lanes wide to hit that taxi.

[bloodprizm]

Being a smell loser is not cool. You're, in fact, just............a smelly loser.

[tommysalami9]

Whos removing comments?

[bikegirl2]

@tommysalami9 people that dont want to think that most of the cycling world thinks their jumped up tossers!!! that cant ride!

[reeboband]

Why chase a taxi after it was clearly his own extremely poor judgement on that corner?

[bobjones1780]

Can somebody please inform couriers and courier-worshippers that being a courier doesn't somehow make you totally awesome?

It actually makes you kind of lame.

[kark4130]

@bobjones1780 Indeed. as a former courier (albeit many yrs ago) I used to be somewhat proud of it. It was a really great job.  Now though, I'm almost embarrassed to mention it and put myself in the same league as all the hipster douche-wanks who define 'bike courier' these days. it just seems it's a magnet for "lifestyle seekers" and posers who, with the downturn in record shops, can't get work anywhere else unless they're willing to take the bolts out of their noses and brush their teeth.

[backlyt]

@bobjones1780 Spoken like someone who has no clue what they're talking about and is too pussy to do it themselves.

[bobjones1780]

@backlyt Ha ha ha, oh yeah, that's it, how perceptive of you.

[Gromitdog1]

@bobjones1780 Wait for the exciting sequel on pumping gas.

[internetilliterate]

Never has so much been said by so many about so little...

[spicyxlilxman]

these assholes take themselves so seriously. it's possible to be on time and not be a douchebag.

[MJBOOSH]

Wow! What a fucking stupid boring idea.

[kotze5]

I think this is just a parody or meant to be ironic

[spicyxlilxman]

@kotze5 sadly, i don't think so. this is embarrassing to bike messengers who don't take themselves so seriously.

[kotze5]

"Now, I certainly have nothing whatsoever against messengers, but I'm not sure I understand the point of making a movie about doing your job really badly."

[MrCharlesanna]

coiuld you imagine being locked in a house with these douchebags? makes seeing these tools in a theater (straight to video) a little less vomitous. a little. is this for real?

[killingspree]

worst people on earth

[bikegirl2]

the people in this video are retards, i truely hope they get killed and soon!!!

[nloewen]

@thelastleroy, according to the couriers themselves, they aren't as responsible as drivers. "Sometimes you just clear out and you're just like, "Whoah," you know, "I almost got hit by four different buses and I punched a jaywalker and almost shit my pants." And this is reiterated by others and their actions. Like nearly hitting a pedestrian and then sideswiping the cab.

[snelhestkuk]

More like "working bike delivery to make some crack money". What a bunch of shitstains.

[amphalon]

yawn

[darnallt]

Gross.

[kotze5]

thats so gay and wank. people jerk of to theire shitty deleviry jobs. srsly etf?

[cristapper84]

What a bunch of douchebags

[Dontbeglum]

@thelastleroy Also there is no demand for the job, clearly. Thus "Murder of Couriers", implying that their livlihoods are being killed off. We have email now.

[Dontbeglum]

@thelastleroy What part of any of this was "as responsible as any driver"? People training on bikes, commuting to work, etc. perhaps tend to be responsible when obeying traffic laws, but thanks to this idiotic hipster phenomenon cyclists are now being more disrespected than ever.

[njg2q]

What was that idiot move at 2:24? Was he actually trying to blame the car for that accident?

[evetsnhojnosirom]

@njg2q I'm pretty sure he wasn't blaming him for anything. Apparently what happened is the cab driver got out, said "I'm sorry", the courier said "All good!", and everything was just fine. Why do you people hate all this video so much? It's not like YouTube has suddenly become a participatory Emmy nomination process or something... weird.

[iplaywitgrenades]

mad respect.

the song's broken social scene- world sick.

[krosm]

@iplaywitgrenades Its a great song but using it here contradicts its meaning, doesn't it? Isn't that a song about negative feelings derived from the things it mentions? Things like "crippled affection", "borrowed mirror connection", and "self-love."

All those things in the song are things this video and 'culture' perpetuates. You don't even know the meaning to the song you seek to reference. Why can't you people get over yourselves and dig a little deeper into things?

So vapid, so frustrating.

[LumiHUN]

what's the music at the end? That is exactly I need when I ride....

[adees9]

@LumiHUN the song is off of broken social scene's newest record "forgiveness rock record" sry can't think of the song name

[LumiHUN]

@adees9 thanks, I managed to find it... suits for riding the streets, love it

[RachelRjR]

RAD!

[jmcconville1000]

Trailer tension keeps rising right to the end. Can't wait to see the full documentary.

[xazax]

Doing what you want in a tightly traffic controlled life or death situation is stupid, foolhardy and selfish. Why are these people being glamorized?

[HangingToughSeries]

yes sir, including BARFING!

[FanArt604]

yeah mang!

[kerunt]

Doing what you love is great. Intentionally disrupting traffic, running stop signs and red lights, and doing the million other stupid things that these dumbass hippies do is not.

[deafboygrunt]

really good cinematography. what cam where you using and for the traffic shots were you on bike or in a vehicle?

[Grandison74]

This is a must see for 2010! It looks fucking amazing.

[thienly]

sick

[VancouverDriver]

I wanna see this movie.
