It's been almost a decade since lil' Bastards, why the long wait?
We'll it really hasn't been a decade since we put out a video. During the filming of Lil' Bastards the Wildcats were born. The next couple video project that came next simply came out as Wildcats films but obviously followed the same format as Lil' Bastards. Truthfully at first we weren't even planning to do a sequel. We just wanted to put out Lil' bastards on DVD for our team and friends. Before i knew it the project snowballed into a double feature and Dev and JF had some how tricked me into managing the project.
I guess you cut Christina and used Paris instead, how did you guys come up with the sound track?
For the soundtrack we just wanted something fun to listen to before shredding as well as something we could throw in as a pre-party warm up. Basically everyone who was involved sent in songs and we went from there. Musics always a battle because you can never please everyone. The two songs I really pushed for were the Bastards day song by Eddie Murphy and Rick James "Party all the time" and the credit song by Lionel Ritchie "All night long". We actually just had someone e-mail in saying they had a girl over while watching Still B's and he got lucky while using it for background music. That's gotta say something. The one song that caused us the most problems was the one in Duffs part. He absolutely hates it and refused to go to any of the premiere for the first month. He's over it now but we had a couple fun weeks.. ahaha
I noticed JF is the excat same as he was back in 98. Is everyone still basically the same?
Yeah I'd have to say no ones really changed much. They're all pretty much doing the same shi*t they have since Still Bastards. Snowboarding and partying... That's why we went with the name "Still Bastards" instead of "Big Bastards". Its not like anyone got any bigger. I'd have to say out of everyone the only person who's really changed since Lil' Bastards is Devun. He definitely keeps it classier more often than the rest. It might have something to do with being married.. But than again, JF has a family he doesn't seem to be slowing down what so ever.
So I guess it's safe to say that it doesn't matter what happens in life, you can always have a good time with your friends?
Still Bastards is pretty much a documentary of all our friends having the time of their lives on and off the hill. Its all about balance, as long as you're having fun you're doing pretty good. haha
What's the main thing you hope people take away from watching this?
I hope that after watching Still Bastards people will want to go out and buy a shi*t load of IS and WC gear so we can keep doing these types of projects. Haha Joking, joking... Well half joking. Still Bastards shows you a pretty up close and personal view of each rider. After watching it you'll probably feel like you know these guys much better and hopefully understand a little more what IS Design and Wildcats is all about. Bottom line, we just want people to be stoked to shred and go out and have a good time with there friends.
What is your favourite parts of the movie?
Its hard to say which parts are my favorites. Dev's, Paris, 8mile, Dickie's, Bastards day, Gaetan, Tadashi's, JF's and the credits are all pretty entertaining. Not to mentions the hidden bonus'.
Finally having Lil' Bastards on DVD is pretty cool too.
Big White and ESPO seemed like the crazy trips of the year? How'd you survive?
I have no idea, both trips definitely took an incredible toll on my health. I guess just lots of practice. I've been throwing myself into these extreme types of party situations for years now..
How was hanging out with Tom Green and Dave England?
Hanging out with Tom Green and Dave England was a blast. Both those dudes are Fookin' Noots... They came back to our Condo to party while were up at Big White filming for the feature film "Shred".
Dave wizzed on everything in sight, while Tom got way into Karaoke then stopped us from messing with JF when he was passed out in his own puke. Its pretty scary when Tom Green's the voice of reason..
Do you have any messages or knowledge that you want to pass down to the younger generation?
Just do it!
Shout outs?
Yeah if you can send people to www.isdsgn.com to buy to movie that would be awesome!
