[quote=molds13;106387]How can a performance that was said to be one of the best in 3 seasons (by Shane) be at #6? Granted I didn't see #5 or 3, but I would definitely put them ahead of Strikers. I don't know what they were thinking when they put this list together.[/quote] Apparently these were Randy Jackson's picks!
That list for the most part was garbage. And honestly I just don't want another B-boy crew to win can we have a crew that's actually DIFFERENT this time win? I mean they say that ABDC is all about being different but if that were true the same crew would not have won the last 2 seasons.

They are 2 totally different crews, with 2 different styles.
Super Cr3w is strictly a breakdance crew but they were told to have some more traditional choreography. Quest crew is closer to Jabbaockeez then Super Crew. And while I would like to see some different crews, they still need to excite me. Jabbawockeez definitely excited me, Super Crew did too, sometimes, and Quest Crew was ok sometimes. So whatever crew wins, they actually have to be good. From what America has proven to like the best so far, it looks like Massive Monkees have a good chance at winning. They're aren't as good of Bboys as Super Crew but they have the potential to be just as good of a group.

Welcome Adrian. Hopefully this season is exhilirating like season 3 and season 1 before it
Season 3 wasn't that exciting to me. I'd say it was only fun to see Beat Freaks and Quest. At least on Season 2 Super Crew, Fanny, and Supreme Soul was good and SoReal Cru was ok. Season 1 had Jabbawockeez and Kaba Modern. Looking at the audition videos of the crews that are gonna be on this next season, it doesn't look like it's gonna be all that great. I think out of all the groups they picked 2 are good. Massive Monkees and 1 other 1.
If Massive Monkees win, it'll be too predictable. I think that they'll win though. -sigh- My favorite crew so far is We Are Heroes. They're a pretty good girl crew. [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b-pCNRZbF1s]YouTube - "ABDC 4" -- We Are Heroes[/url] They're like an all-female mix of Kaba Modern and Fanny Pak. I'm excited for them! :D
Something I noticed about all the crews this season in their audition tapes was that they weren't as energetic as the crews were on the last seasons. And nicalvaro, if We Are Hero is compared to Kaba Modern they are a very poor Kaba Modern. Their isolations and popping is nothing compared to Kaba Modern.

I don't think We Are Heroes is like Kaba Modern because KM were smoother and flow much nicer. Just what I think.
Well I said they were a mix of Kaba and Fanny Pak. Never said they were exactly like Kaba Modern.
Plz don't let another bboy crew win this season. I have seen every bboy move that is possilble. Flares,Headspins,Air flares,Swipes,Baby Mills,WindMills,Halos,Headslides,Hand stands, and all sorts of poses. Oh, and don't forget all of the flips. I don't want to see a style like the Jabbawockeez either because I really don't think any crew out there could pull Jabba's style off. Only thing on the bboy side of things I want to see is Threading(real threading). I would also like to see some tutting and some beat manipulating. I mean, I respect the **** out of any bboy or bboy crew because I know how hard that style is, and I know there will be some bboy crews on the new season, but I want to see a crew with a unique and different style win this season. I hope the Jabbawokeez make another guest appearance this season like they did on seasons 1 and 2. And according to Donnie Wahlberg's twitter The Jabbawockeez will do a guest performance on the new season of Dancing with the Stars like they did on SYTYCD. I guess Jabba is best friends with NKOTB now. Jabba rulez!!!!
There have been tutting groups. KM, TM, Quest did a little, Phresh Select did a little, that group from Brooklyn who broke bones (I can't remember the name). KM being the best tutters so far on the show. I'm excited for this season because I like this show but I'm not as excited because none of the crews seem that great. The different style groups coming up this season aren't as good as Fanny Pak. Break Sk8 and Dynamic Edition were different, but I thought neither were good.
Oh, and there is a video on youtube showing where Quest Crew got some of their routines and moves and all of their ideas almost it. Quest Crew totally copied a crew called The Dance Band. All you got to do is just type in Quest Crew and The Dance Band on youtube. I have lost almost every bit of respect I had for Quest Crew because of this video. Check it out.
Yeah, they "bit" the idea of being upside down when they did the NKOTB performance. They apologized for byting but still, they copied and there is no getting away from that. People said BF shouldn't have won because they were professionals yet Quest won, and they stole other people's ideas and performances.
Yeah, but besides Kaba those crews you mentioned looked pretty ****** at tutting. I guess Quest did alright for the little amount of time they done it in the hip hop decathalon.
Oh, there is alot more than that Quest copied. Just look at that video I mentioned. You won't believe it. They almost copied that crew I'm talking about down to their hairstyles no joke and alot more than that too.
Adrian, I watched that video you told me to, and some of it is kinda flawed. Yeah they took the idea of the rolling move and jump onto the other persons feet, and the NKOTB move, but Ryan's flip onto his head, a handslide, Victor's handstands on one hand are not really stolen. People do those moves all the time. You get what I mean? If someone did a wave move like Jabbawockeez that doesn't mean they stole from the Jabbawockeez. But if they did a whole segment off of a routine like their Apologize routine, then yeah that's stealing. But Quest did steal enough more for me to lose respect.
I hope you know Flexible Flave used to have D-trix, Steve, and Victor in it. And no you can't steal a move, but you can steal the way you do a move if it is done a certain way or diferently and Quest/Flexible Flave done that.
Yes I know Flex Flav had those guys. Quest stole, end of story. Lets not argue what they stole. They just did.
Who's arguing? I just don't like byters and posers. Being a professional dancer, I know byting other crews is the biggest digrace in the dance world and especially if you don't give credit to whom you got the routine and ideas from.
For anyone who did see this special, *** was up with Lil Mama's hair?
