Tyler Takes An IMAX Hit
From CyclingNews
http://www.cyclingnews.com/news.php?...ar05/mar01news Phil and Paul are the stand-ins. Distributor plays down Hamilton role in IMAX movie By Carlton Reid, www.bikebiz.co.uk The possible fallout from a positive drug test includes a court battle, fines, suspension, loss of career and - for Tyler Hamilton - being 'edited out' of a movie you were supposed to star in. Hamilton's central role in Brain Power, an IMAX film which should have premiered late last year, has been much reduced. Brain Power is to be distributed by nWave Pictures of New York. In an nWave press release from July 7, 2003, the film is said to explore "the extraordinary processes of the human brain by following world-class, professional cyclist, Tyler Hamilton as he trains and participates in the Tour de France." At a screening of rushes of the film at Cycle 2004 in London in September, Hamilton was featured as the only protagonist. Fast forward to February 24 and Hamilton is not mentioned in an nWave press release. Instead, Brain Power becomes the "dramatic story of pro-cyclists dealing with the stresses, dangers, and conflicts of the Tour de France." The film no longer has a central character: "Brain Power will follow several Tour riders as they cope with pain in the high Alps, experience a "fight-or-flight" situation on a steep downhill switchback, struggle to maintain mental focus and wage a constant mental war between extreme exhaustion and their motivation to reach the finish line in Paris." -- How strange when an illusion dies, it's as though you've lost a child.--Judy Garland |

He still got paid the same. Thanks, Magilla |

It ought to be interesting to see what becomes of the WADA if it turns out that they've been screwing with people's careers with a faulty drug test. |

That's like saying 'do you really think they'd send someone to death row who wasn't guilty of a murder?' Goddamn you're one stupid moron. I forget, are you one of the people in here who thinks you go faster around a turn on a velodrome than on the straightaway? Thanks, Magilla |
