Finally someone posts about this!!!

I've watched these trailers so many times. Supposedly they're still filming and gathering funds to continue production.

I dig the angle they're working for the film.

I'd love to see this!

Never heard of it, but it looks cool.

 

[OtherMoe]

Yes, very cool indeed.

 

[mwhitcraft]

Looks great! I hope they'll be able to put it into production.

They came to our show (The Conclave of Richmond Pipe Smokers Expo) last October and the hope was to debute it at our 30th Expo this October. I'll drop 'em a line and see how it goes and pass it along.

I can't get it to load from YouTube. Link works, just can't get it to play. Other vids on the same YT page load just fine

Hey Nortac, you can watch the trailer and others on the website.

I really like the one where they're showing pipes and talking about grain of briar.

Good find Andrew! I might be watching that on lunch instead of Burn Notice today.

Andrew keep your eyes open

At present, Chad is headed to Japan with Lee Von Erck on September 12-18 to visit his distributors there (Tsuge) and get the Japanese pipe culture on film. Point of fact, they’ve given the crew permission to film at the Japanese pipe smoking contest where no one has been allowed to film or take photos before.

I want to know about this contest and how I can enter. I'll be the Frank Dux of the pipe smoking kumite.

Interesting video. Thought provoking.

I've seen your pictures Derrick, and you ain't no Dux. More of a Jackson...






I would love to meet up with those guys. I usually watch documentaries as it is, and this one is on a topic I'm obviously interested in. The shame is that I'll be in Tokyo on the 20th for the UFC in Saitama. I could have translated for them

Don't make me show you my dim mak packing technique.

I watched the documentary last night and it was very good. Introduced to the Ivarsson family, Lee Erck, and the Romeo Domenico (Mimmo) family. As well as some factories, enthusiast and the history of tobacco. Great score and cinematography. Moves at a easy pace that left me wanting more. I rented it for less than 4 bucks.

I bought the HD version - that way I can watch it at my leisure. I am through the first watch and while I found it fascinating, I'm pretty sure the non-pipe crowd will find it less than captivating. It is quite well done, in my opinion.

From the review page- duh.

That's what I'm talking about. "I thought it was all about fire and the only fire is in someone's pipe. What a bowlful of crap!" My imagined review as a non-pipe smoker. A definite niche market production.

I mean wouldn't you watch the trailer before purchasing a movie you don't know anything about?

Maybe that's just me?
