I just watched a sweet skydiving movie!

Yeah, that's pretty damned bad. Dropzone was to movies what um... shit is to ... um, shit.

Horribly bad movie.

I haven't watched it since I started skydiving, but I remember even when I knew nothing about the sport that it had the most horrible blue-screen skydiving effects I had ever seen or could ever imagine.

I'd like to watch it now once more to see what the boogie-atmosphere is depicted like.

I thought it was a good movie, fake as hell or not. And it did bring a large group of people to the sport for a little while. So all in all, it did have its benefits.

You guys have any idea what kind of financial spike "Dropzone" brought to skydiving in the two years following it's release?

I remember "Point Break" was huge! Our FJC had about 5 times as many folks the Saturday after that opened that ever before. Don't remember much of a spike with "Dropzone" or "Cutaway." Some of my friends got paid some nice dough doing Sheen's movie, though. :)

Yeah, both Point Break" and "DropZone" spiked FJC's in our neighborhood, but "Cutaway" (which we were hoping) didn't do anything for FJC flow.
Nobody has time to listen; because they're desperately chasing the need of being heard.
