Bolts of Thunder Gone Too Far

So the other day I showed a friend our most recent Bolts of Thunder Gone Wild trailer of Dan Shaw. You know which one I'm talking about because you have feelings for this trailer, don't you? So when it was over she said, "you guys take this way too far..." I don't know what she meant by that comment, but it really made me happy. That's right people, we're taking things way further than anyone is dreaming. Not true actually, but we're taking things further than I've seen anyone go in a long time. And we might lose a few of you along the way. That's right, some of you might lack the internal strength to understand and accept Bolts of Thunder's direction. Some of you might be hoping for more HD panning on my dolly footage, ride up shots, 4 trick combos on ledges, and fast motion cars driving through the city at night. But that's not where we're going because that's not going anywhere. If I can give you my honest opinion, which I'm going to whether you want it or not, all this artsy stuff was successfully pulled off by a few people in a few videos, it worked at the time, and now every kid is trying to recreate that. And that's just fine. But that's not how every single skate video has to look. You can do other things. But what we get instead is everyone thinking that's the only way to make a video these days, so you get a million different videos coming out that look the exact same. Well here at Bolts of Thunder, we're anything but your average skate crew. We should be a bowling crew, or some sport with less impact on our joints. But we're sticking with it because we have fun with it. And being such an odd group of skaters, we've decided to take a less conventional approach to our video making, and we're making the video that we want to make. Not what everyone else is making. And if we're going to make it what we want, we're going all out with it too. The image above is but a small taste of where we're going with our next video and what you should anticipate. So for those of you who disapprove of flames shooting out of a scooter, Matt growing his hair out long, or me showing off my legs, or you simply can't hack it as a Thunder Bolt (devout allies loyal to Bolts of Thunder),you should abandon ship now because we're going much further than this. We're going too far, if that's even possible.
