Outside Magazine's Top 10 Ski Films of All Time

Out Cold was hilarious.

Johnny Tsunami was a funny Disney movie.

Propaganda by Poor Boyz Productions probably had the best ski movie sound track.

From the list in OP’s post, Yearbook was great too. MSP, TGR, always make great movies.

Johnny Tsunami was filmed at Brighton, Utah.

I just watched Better Off Dead. I haven't laughed so hard at a movie in a while. Good recommendation.

Just finished rewatching this (if you have Showtime, it’s free on the app). My grown-up self sees a very different movie than my kid self…

At 1:18:22, the Gene Hackman character complains to the Robert Redford character about “hot dog” skiers.

Everything is connected.

I remember going to the movie theater with my parents to see Downhill Racer when it was released.

I was 11.

I'm surprised that no one suggested my favorite, "Ski School", which really played on the friendly rivalry between "Ski School" and "Ski Patrol". The plot is corny, but it moves right along with most of the emphasis on the skiing.
