Tony Hawk & Josh Brolin Hate Thrashin’

"Trashing" and "Gleaming the Cube" are '80s classics.

Who couldn’t resist to go skateboarding after watching this when they were a kid.

I started skating in 86' cuz of thrashin skating almost 40yrs still at sponsor level😊

Thrashin and Rad were like my life when I was a kid. Anyone who like to BMX and Skateboard loved those movies as a kid.

Gleaming the Cube was an awesome movie for me when I was a kid. It was one of only a few kid or skate movies that my parents took seriously enough to watch with us.

I saw Tony in a "wellness supplement" commercial last week and I got the same feeling you get when you turn on the classic radio station expecting to hear Led Zeppelin and they're playing Pearl Jam.

Josh's "Oh, fuck, dude!" after the "no, chrissie, come back" had me rolling.

I absolutely loved that chase scene with Circle Jerks' Wild in the Street. I lived on a sick hill and would bomb it right after watching that scene, many, many times. The downhill race at the end was also legitimately gnarly, and it definitely influenced my love of hill bombing, my favorite thing in skateboarding, really. As cheesy as Thrashin' was, the skating was super gnarly, and as a skater in the early 00's who was obsessed with 80's skating, Thrashin' was pure gold because it was the only 80's skate footage I had access to pre-yt.

Thrashin' was huge for skaters because skateboarding was still a weird subculture at the time. Any depiction of skating in popular culture was a big deal.

What’s terrible is trying to ride a skateboard in rural West Virginia where there was zero flat land, zero sidewalks and the crappiest weather damaged paved roads you’ve ever seen. Being a skater in WV in the mid to late 80’s took a lot of commitment. Almost as difficult as trying to get the local record store to order you tapes from The Dead Kennedys and Black Flag; they looked at me like I was crazy, but dude came through for me.

Thrashin meant a lot to so many young skater kids in the 80’s and 90’s.

I'm a kid of the '80s. I grew up loving thrashing when I heard Josh brolin didn't like it. It was a little heartbreaking, but I understand that sometimes when you do projects you might not be as proud of them, but I'm glad he's embraced the good things about it and what it's done for people and I am one of those people. I got diagnosed with multiple sclerosis 2 years ago. Thrashing was a movie I grew up watching and the song staring down the demons and his training montage with the broken arm. Help me through my chemotherapy and stem cell transplant. I had to do and I use it to inspire and move me just about every day. Thank you Joshua brolin thank you Pamela gidley I appreciate you guys so much and thank you. Tony hawk and the bone brigade really appreciate you guys as well

Thrashin was great, it was a massive part of my childhood

My cousin's and I saw it in the theater and we loved it and still do.

EY! Don't f**k with Thrashin', it was a super important movie for us kids back in the 80s. Brolin should be proud to be part of it

Thrashin meant EVERYTHING to us in Sweden. It was our only video that showed real skating! We didnt believe Dogtown was a real place. All the bowls and the ramp and the downhill like... we LOVED this movie! Still do. Is it a corny story? Yes, but so what! Its an incredible movie! Full stop! The Ramp Locals RULE!

Gleaming the cube 100% best skate movie ever.

Come on Brolin don't be a Val Jerk, Thrashin is the bomb!

Loved everything about Thrashin!! The old school skating was fire 🔥🔥!!

I will always love Thrashin' for introducing me to the Red Hot Chili Peppers.
