The post is showing up funny, so I am reposting it.
Thanks to everyone who came out for the Serenity Night in November, it was a blast.
I'll let everyone know if there are any developments. Don't forget to go to UnitedHollywood.com and support the writers!
Reposted Letter From Criterion.
Will –
Fox, like other studios, finds themselves in need of often swift action to deal with licensing and availability. Unfortunately, this involves not just the rights on Buffy but all TV shows. As of this writing, we have been told that Criterion is not authorized to license any TV Shows (please refer to Fox in Flight for the scope of this withdrawl) at this time. Because this is a different medium, there are questions regarding licensing, especially in theatrical settings.
Will, I’ve already heard from four people in the area fan base. Seemingly, there is no remedy that approaches the presentation you’ve set up. Although I understand that the original pales compared to the complexity of the series, can I ask you to consider screening the Buffy movie for which we have our normal rights?
Of course, we will submit a request for a refund of the $425 sent to Criterion for the upcoming Buffy shows. The refund process will be initiated today
Please accept my apologies for this difficult situation. I hope to provide whatever possibility available to help with your programming needs
Sincerely,
Cary Haber
Account Executive
