The riders were good, VERY GOOD!
but If i compare Union with Defect :o ,Union is a bit weak
The music didn't match with the "unicycle-atmosfeer", it was sort of
MIDI-file style.
The story they putted in the movie is bad acted and not so clear.
again, i realy-realy don't want to hurt the feelings of people who are
envalved with the movie but i spendt my pocketmoney on this DVD and
didn't had the WOW-feeling when i was watching it at all🙁

i like it. it's funny, it's colorful, it's lovely, and well filmed.
although the unicycling might not be ground breaking, it shows decent
riding, a lot of different styles and very creative tricks. and i bet
you haven't seen all of it.

Well, Union is NOT Defect. That's the thing: It doesn't try to be
defect. It tries to be different.

I think the music is far away from midi file style. it's been
esspecially created for the movie, but as you can imagine, buying music
is not very cheap. Furthermore we liked the idea of NOT playing the
hardest rock music, as you see it in nearly every uni movie. We liked
the idea of coming up with something different.

I'm sorry for you that it didn't meet your expectations.

Dont want to make a big point of this but i just wanted to say what i
think of this dvd.

that's cool.

Quoted message said:

The rider did tricks i didn't even knew they existed, that was very
surprising.
but the tricks aren't that spectaculair anymore because of the music
and "acted" parts.

Many people think different to you. But that's an opinion, and I
respect that.

hello bailingmarne.
it´s good to present your own opinion. but perhaps you are not open for
new movies. as you like and think that defect is perfect you probably
don´t want be fond of other unicycling dvds.
defect very good, especially the hidden tracks. but i am also really
sold of union. it is exciting with good perpectives and good riders. it
is something different. my new favorite word in english, that somebody
told me, is awesome and it fits with union.
suggestion: watch it again without comparing it because it´s something
different with it´s own trumps.
greets janina

Maybe you're wright.🙄
I hadn't thought about it that way, that Union wants to be a diffrent
movie.
Sorry that i may have judged to quick:o
I'm gonne watch it a couple more times, that might set me to other
thoughts.
Btw, this movie contains lots of exclusive tricks i never saw before in
any other movie, A big YEAH for that!

I think Wogri really deserves credit for coming up with a movie that has
a unique style. It takes courage and imagination to try something
different instead of "playing it save" with some rap/hardrock.
Of course it's a matter of personal taste, just like many of the best
things in life 🙂

Every unicycle movie in existence would have a hard time when it's
compared to Defect, because Defect is so gigantic.

I really like Union 🙂

Its one hundred and six miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas,
half a pack of cigarettes, its dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.-

They put on panda suits and then pretend they're milking a cow. It's
art. You wouldn't get it.

I'd really like to get this vid. Where can I buy it in the US?

The only vids I've seen that have a story line in them are
_4_AM_Forever__(I think that's right) and Jeff Groves bit in Defect.

Edit: there was one funny trials vid with a clown in it and I think
Wogri made it. Am I right on that?

I now know why Tomsey is so good at backs. And why Shaun owns at normal
flips.
It has to do with the gravitational pull. Like how the toilet flushes
in the opposite direction down there. Well its easier down there to
flip backwards then forwards. KH.

Darren Bedford should receive it this week. Amy from Unicycle.com didn't
write back to me for 2 or 3 weeks now. If anybody knows her personally,
I'm still waiting for an answer...

today i recieved my copy of Union.
I watched it with high expectings.
But after i was very disappointed about it 🙁
I don't like to say this.

What are your experiences with this movie ?😕

I applaud this film for breaking ground into mainstream story telling.
Union may have failed your limited expectations, but its exploring ways
to bring our sport to the masses; admire that.

I have Union and I think it's a great DVD.

I also didn't like it very much in the beginning, but it grew on me
over time. The music is very nice and I simply love the intro with
baroque/hard-rock intermissions.

Highly recommendable.
