The climbing to meta-bollocks ratio in this one is astonishingly low!

Quite! What a wasted opportunity that was.

And if I see one more slo-mo shot of someone wiping excess chalk from their hands I'll scream.

Shite. Not a climbing film in any way.

Dislike doesn't capture one's feeling adequately, maybe I should report it as abuse.

I have started wiping chalk off my hands in slow motion in real-life, often while moving slowly past some orange or brown leaves or dew covered grass. Innit like.

I liked it and thought the photography was great. But then it ended. It seems like a trailer for a longer film I'm guessing.

Exactly! Americans do tend to make a lot of noise but that was impressive even by their standards. I'm also not sure why she talked so much about fear then went out sport climbing?

Is it not a tongue in cheek parody?

That green boulder problem at the beginning looks about V1.

It's amazing just how accessible this level of cinematography is nowadays, content set aside it's visually stunning but, agreed, this feels nothing to do with climbing. who sent it in?

As a show reel for a non climbing specific audience it's quite good, i'd hire them to promote my real estate agency or whatever

No. Technically stunning maybe, but visually massively irritating.
Even if it were a parody it would be a shit, humourless one.

Oh, and "meta-bollocks" is my new favourite word. Brilliantly appropriate.

Were you technically stunned?

I suppose that, technically, I was only metaphorically stunned. Though watching it did, literally, bring on an urge to hammer my head against the wall,
