lords of dogtown prereview :
it fuckin' rocks!
oh man! why did they have to go and shape up a perfectly good story? Dogtown and Z-boys has enough narrative for me, I don't need invented first-kiss-under-the-culvert scenes to appreciate those wicked olden-days skate kids.
eventually lords will support DT and ZB and carry it along with it. I think it will help the obviously superior DT and ZB hold onto its place in history. in that sense only im all for it. plus maybe stacy peralta needs the cash.
Charley's Angels and all that...
The problem with DT and ZB as with most authorized bios is that it's too clean. You know those kids were doing far worse shit than "snatching wigs from old ladies heads" Gimmie a break.
Hopefully LODT is a bit more honest.
i expect the opposite; an even more romanticized hollywood version. if dogtown was ifc, lords will be mtv.
