I like Sean Pablo way too much, I don’t know it’s just his style and personality he’s so sick I wish I could have a friend like him haha he’s definitely one of my favorite skaters right now and I love this

[@billybeans2253]

you are gay

[@rubytuesday7716]

Yeah, I'm a girl and his attraction is sexual. Your a girl or you're gay, this guy's right

[@danielking7589]

I don't understand why Nate's mom was so happy to see him if she knew he assaulted her son and she was pressing charges..

[@xXCircusGodXx]

+Daniel King Clearly he lied about pressing charges and never told his mom

[@danielking7589]

+Elijah Carrick Ah that makes a lot of sense, thanks

[@miladizad]

well if that was the case why did nates mom say nate would appreciate julian seeing nate

[@caystenknowshisgun8124]

cause nate dosent have many freinds

[@shredheads100]

Cuz he didn't really tell his mom

[@samsoda5352]

The kid is still young and he's not even an actor to begin with. He skates. I don't think the acting was that bad at all. The dullness most likely comes from the lack of good direction. He's definitely got potential and I love his whole River Phoenix vibe he's got going on.

[@rubytuesday7716]

He barely acted. He just walked and said a couple of things with a poker face. I can do that too

[@shredheads100]

The moral of this is that he drives a prius

[@mowad9405]

Hahahahhahaa bro

[@martinvandrunen7422]

The cinematography is pretty nice. I wish he skated instead of driving the car, that would make him a more believable character. Plus There is this really awsome scene with the bald dude, seems like something is going to happen. Something deeper, but never does. I guess the cinematography won over the script. Anyway the feel was kinda nice.

[@Seouul]

+Martin van Drunen agreed with this, i liked the feel overall

[@i3zd]

Would be true is Sean Pablo was acting as Sean Pablo rather than Julien in the film.

[@eddygonzalez6973]

Martin van Drunen i think either that guy is an undercover cop or Julien/Sean got paranoid from the weed

[@julianperez5457]

So basically this is about a guy named Julien who beat up a kid while he was drunk and feels bad about it while he's smokes weed during his hangover

[@RatFacedSnake]

lmfao

[@rubytuesday7716]

He doesn't feel bad, he thought his mum was gonna press charges, do you even listened

[@volkmeyer5074]

sean pablo drives a prius

[@patscam991]

I think Sean is actually a good actor. This role was perfect for him as well. I couldn't see any one else playing this role better. Keep acting Sean! but only darker roles!

[@jesuschristhellpme]

I love how they actually got his girlfriend too awe that's really nice

[@TheCoreyDeal]

not his girlfriend anymore

[@Andruwjonesrichar]

This is why Sean didn’t get casted for mid 90’s

[@diealysse]

soon as I saw sean i clicked the video

[@alexbutlerful]

+ag same I love shaun XD

[@keiffactory]

+hotline bling is a good song It's actually Shane

[@ridge4649]

IT'S PRONOUNCED CORNELL

[@kevinjolley]

I really wanted that to be good

[@qizoh7306]

i rlly wanted it to have a better ending but the cinematography was fantastic

[@lukaseven4413]

I don't get it

[@AricGonzales]

We got supreme up in here

[@faithtrill]

+Aric Gonzales Dumb frogposter.

[@AricGonzales]

+Gavin McCauley cute name

[@arcticgrape-elc]

+Gavin McCauley ay what's up dood

[@scottp444]

Voorhees Family cuz he rides for supreme lol

[@BayAreaSkates]

3:58 why would they be on the roof dressed like its sunny out, when 'Julien' walks outside its all rainy and shit

[@threelitttlespiders]

i think it shows a different time of day. he was just getting up when that happened, did the chores his mom left a voicemail about and is walking the dog now later in the day

[@12StringLegado]

this is almost a view of everyday life it’s not meant to be your view of perfection, feel uncomfortable and feel nothing this is julian

[@THATBITCHDEBBIE]

I actually quite enjoyed this film the way it was shot and how it started really got me interested because you kinda started to get a feel of who this guy is . And I do kinda get a feel that their wasn't that much funds I guess you can say so I think that restricted them from doing alittle more then maybe they wanted to . I say that because the little things like thy random bald guy moment like it made no sense and maybe they just didn't have time to explain that . Or I feel like I would of loved to see more of what this boy goes three throughout his day it's clear here's a boys who's parents aren't around much so he just does what he pleases but like what exactly . And how does he interact with other characters besides the two we saw idk theirs just so many questions but overall I enjoyed it

[@percDADDY]

Y'all hating hella hard ... if you skim through it ... it's not that bad!

[@enjoies14]

Low key that was ass.... But good try

[@oliverstepanek5202]

Music at 3:51 is "Joy Division - She's Lost Control"

[@greatestever1418]

anybody else thought the bald guy had something to do with the film? haha

[@dahskies1]

Sean Pablo the man the film sacked but Sean feels like a James Dean type he should act has the personality for it plus it's he's first time I'm pretty sure just he's vibe is that chill persona ic2 a must watch from the skating to the song choice plus he's look and vibe very Jason dill like I can see why he's on fuckin awesome and supreme

[@BigahhTex]

abe chavez mm but Jason Dill can be fucking crazy sometimes

[@jesuschristhellpme]

I actually really love this

[@graysonclark3461]

Anyone know where i could find a jacket like the one he’s wearing at 4:38 ?

[@kimoto6050]

Sean pablo skate forever

[@BrenPilew]

Anyone else think this was Ben k 5:04

[@dancewizard3004]

Brendan Pilewski Hahahah Fr I did!

[@knockknockpenny347]

looks nothing like him 💀

[@yeeeww]

Well made but what is the concept here? Overly vague... All the background with the voicemails from his friends and parents made me expect a story or at least some real characterization haha. I see some potential but this was very underwhelming. Could be a decent pilot for a series but I don't see it succeeding.

[@danny_larrea]

definitely a head scratcher

[@aintfree2804]

The director of photography do great

[@fuzzylumpkin49]

I love his duvet cover.

[@santosramos2307]

I always wondered what kind of pants does Sean wear

[@Mosh244]

Santos Ramos i think mostly supreme

[@luci996]

Santos Ramos dickies

[@jeanmondays1454]

does anyone know which camera is good for making films like that?

[@winterresearch]

Palo Alto starring Sean Pablo. Still good though, he fits the part

[@noeldelesseps4321]

+Skeptical lol he was in palo alto too

[@winterresearch]

+Noel de Lesseps Yeah a scene or two, no lines though

[@nicholasgawronski5427]

I personally liked the film, people need to understand Sean Pablo isn't a actor he's a skateboarder it's his first film yes the acting wasn't magnificent but I liked the scenery and atmosphere it gave off I think Sean was a good person to play this role he's kind of a quiet mysterious kid. I would definitely like to see another film by you guys.

[@IpathLion]

fcked up kid sheltered and safe. Good Stuff !!!

[@drinkmo]

I LOVED IT!! VERY COOL, SIMPLE

[@invertedcrown]

I used to have that janes addiction shirt, wonder what happened to it... that's what I took from this: keep your old tees.

[@gubzonme3622]

This should be made into a full movie

[@brynmza]

What crewneck is he wearing? I want that

[@mowad9405]

As said, shot wonderfully, acting isnt really much but doesnt have to be ...no script though...a nice cinematic exercise though...should find a story, could def watch it...

[@indyrod321]

Palo Alto 2

[@cysklatesum2061]

[@thugginsexual1365]

I loved the both the cinematography and soundtrack, but the story didn't really have that much of like an impact I felt

[@ExclFashionkings]

awesome this!

[@MUNOZSK8CHANNEL]

I think the director should have put an honest apology, in the end of the film. It would had made the video a bit more interesting.. something like.. Sean could had said... hey man sorry for what happen the other night I thought things over and I got to admit that was dick of me to do such a thing. I'm not expecting you to forgive me or anything but just wanted to let you know I'm sorry and willing take full responsibility for my actions... blah blah blah Other character has opening line to say what he likes...and have options for a twist or something If the film was intended to look inside of a rich guy teenage problem life and cause the viewer to try and understand the purpose of this film.. good job.. Film had A+ cinematography

[@kevindelaney7624]
