I am told that Into the Mind is by far the movie of the year. Which makes sense because their last project was great and this one took twice as long.
Anyway, the winner of TGR's Co-Lab Contest was announced earlier this week. The contest gave $100,000 to whatever athlete (pro or not) could put together the best edit in 5 minutes. The field of entries was narrowed to 21 by taking the top 18 voted entries in terms of public votes, and adding 3 others selected by TGR. Then those 21 athletes themselves ranked their favourites among the edits that were left, and whoever got ranked the best on aggregate got the $100 G's.
Dale Talkington was the leading vote-getter in the first stage, and ended up winning the contest altogether. Which was apparently controversial because there's no big mountain skiing in his edit. But all I know is nobody does a cork 9 onto a f*#$@ing roof, so I'm on board.
