Look I am not disputing what you said. Just your timeline is wrong. I dont 
think you started getting posters from Miramax directly UNTIL DISNEY bought 
them out. Are you going to try and tell me they also sent you Res Dogs from 
Miramax direct. THINK about it???? I was and am still in publicity. I deal with 
these people all the time.  I just know that MIRAMAX did not have ANY POSTERS 
in NY or CA as I tried to get some for promo. THey had to wait for the posters 
to be printed and then get to Consolidated. Then they received some copies but 
not many. MIRAMAX did not deal with posters in the office That is what they had 
Consolidated for. As a matter of fact one of the other main reason that 
Consolidated lost the account was because that when the Crow came out they were 
selling the posters to any comic store that called. Miramax got pissed because 
they had to print more Crow posters because Consolidated had sold so many to 
comic store without Miramax's knowledge.

    God. YOU are out of your mind. YOu are now spouting offf bullshit on the 
level of Tom Loce. You are right now putting out bad info just as bad as the 
real Pulp Advances had red stamps on them.   When Pulp Fiction came out this is 
why DISNEY BOUGHT MIRAMAX. The only way to get MIRAMAX POSTERs was from 
CONSOLIDATED. NO ONE ELSE. Miramax had a few copies in house that they got from 
CONSOLIDATED. When the advance Pulp came out hey sent me a tube of 50. They 
were going to send me more but decided to print up the regular version because 
of the copyright issues with Lucky Strikes. So I even remember waiting on them 
to print the posters and then wait for them to get to Consolidated. They sent 
me 100 of those. They had NONE at MIRAMAX in NY or CA. They had to wait for 
office copies to come from Consolidated. Now when DISNEY bought them which was 
After Pulp Fiction as a matter of fact the last film Miramax did before Disney 
bought them was THE CROW. Then when Disney took over then yes you were sent 
posters from whoever Disney was using. It was no longer Consolidated.
    Thank You

      Al,
      I don't know who you are, but I was in exhibition for most of Miramax's 
greatest years.   Everyone of my one sheets at Cineplex Odeon Theatres came 
directly from Miramax's office in Los Angeles. There was an exhibitor services 
representative that most theatre chains would speak directly to. We also 
happened to be one their most major clients as we not only dominated the art 
house options in most metro areas, but when they enjoyed their breakout films, 
they often looked to our theatres first. So believe me I know where the hell 
the posters came from.  The incentive to order directly from Miramax is there 
was no charge for the accessories.   Their philosophy was to ship directly to 
the important, top 50 playdates, pick up the costs 100% to insure saturation of 
their posters and trailers in important markets.

       There may have been a time they were using Consolidated but certainly 
not during their escalation into wide releases.  Every tube sent to Cineplex 
theatres  reflected their business address.   Consolidated Posters at the time 
were dealing with the most obscure and exploitive film releases and I ordered 
from them as well as Donald Velde, but it was  very, very rare for studios 
other than Miramax.

      So  a big FAIL on where Pulp Fiction posters came from specifically for  
the top 15 or 20 National Theatre Chains.

        Rich you are VERY FULL of shit now. Yes I sold you several CRUMB one
        sheets.They came from Sony Classics. NO doubt about it. You bought them 
        from
        me right before you opened your website.At the same time you bought a 
Pulp
        Fiction. And there is no fucking way you got Pulp Fiction posters from a
        MIRAMAX  wharehouse because MIRAMAX never had ANY pulp Fiction posters 
in a
        wharehouse. All the Pulp Fiction posters were in the hands of 
CONSOLIDATED
        posters and THEM ONLY. Miramax never had any pulp Fiction posters. I 
know I
        was one of the only people to have a roll of 50 of the rare advance. 
This
        was at a time when Disney was just picking up Miramax and Miramax NEVER
        dealt with any posters.CONSOLIDATED DID ALL OF MIRAMAX POSTERS untill 
DISNEY
        took over. They all went throught Consolated Posters . So you my friend 
are
        FULL OF SHIIITTTTTT. Oh wait my bad you do have 6 tubes from Miramax. 
THey
        all have Miramax Stamps on the back of them right. YOU ASSHOLE!!!!
