$15, but you have to preorder or you won't get a copy. Go check the preorder section on the site.
that is what they said about halo 3 and madden.... but i didn't pre order them and i still have both
You don't understand, it won't be in stores. You can only get it if u preorder it from the site. After that, they aren't selling it

This isn't EB Games we're talking about. They're taking pre-orders so they can collect money to have the DVDs made. They have little to no budget and can't afford to have 1000 copies printed up and only sell 200 of them.

seriously? gimme a break, they can't get the chump change to produce a few discs? Uh.. my opinion changed of them, they are a sick group of skiers but they shouldn't be in the amatuer movie business then.. thats just my opinion.

maybe they're not in it for the 'business' part of the business? maybe they just want to get their riding out there, give kids something to get stoked on riding, and recover their costs for doing so, and not actually turn a profit like poor boyz or msp?

It's a business, they are promoting it and trying to sell it. If they wanted to get it out "there", then they would have someone host the thing for free viewing. It certainly will get a ton more exposure that way. It was nothing for RTR to get the money for the production of Quick. The Montage guys simply haven't asked the right people for the 1k to produce the first 200. It amazes me that they can use all the modern technology to make these films, but they can't seem to write for simple sponsorships.. here....... from someone you probably respect.

I'm really interested to see where this whole "am" filmmaker thing goes. I know that one of these days (we need a little more money) we're going to start sponsoring this kind of a project.
My main issue with them is that rarely do the people doing this have a clue when it comes to business sense. There are certain timelines sponsor proposals have to be in by, (april/may for most companies) and you're looking for a certain amount of return from your investment.
I think that what most companies stay away from is kids making a movie... it might be fun, but what are you going to get out of it? As you said, roundtop riders suffered when a few of them went to college... so that is one place that sponsorship definitely becomes difficult to find. You've got to be able to show that you're a real company.
Simply coming up with a nice .pdf document, clear-cut sponsor packages and a proper eye towards industry timelines and I'll betcha half of these movies could scrape up a few bucks in sponsorships.
Problem with most of the stuff out there right now is it is just kids playing business versus kids actually throwing down in the business world.
