Dixie chicks i would play Al Gores crap i would play ..this is fine …my Michael Moore hate is based on f-911……just me….When i was with Cineplex Odeon and RKO those decisions were based on our best interest all the time…

Schamadrian…. Funny there are very few pics I would refuse to play…cant think of any at the moment …oh yes anything from Michael Moore………Quatity of product i love to talk about.. to me often quality of product is what people want to see not what critics say we should see…Take Jackass box office numbers are pretty good ….thats quality of product to me…..in a bsns sence……..

AL every bsns must have its own standards……..I own Gourmet food stores ..you will never find Irianian Caviar at any of my stores or French products….Thats my stand……If one of my coustomers dont agree they have the option of going elsewere…..Just my thoughts….

If theater owners say we will not play on simultaneous release that will be the end of it …It will then go direct to video wich we have now or will be theatrical only……..Do the theater owners have the balls ….i doubt it,,,,

The cost to advertise a film and production will not be covered by skipping a theatrical release..(in most cases)If theater owners say no (and i mean the big guys )the simultaneous release will never amount to much….The big blockbuster money comes from theaters …

This is what the bsns needs ………..a stand up guy…….now theater owners need to do 2 more things….

2.fight for a 35% split
