Movies to Avoid...Stop Peace Arch

This is a list of movies to avoid, not for any possible artistic merit they may have, but simply to cause the owners of Peace Arch Entertainment (PAE) financial pain for backing "Chapter 27"
TORONTO--(MARKET WIRE)--May 15, 2006 -- Peace Arch Entertainment Group Inc. (AMEX:PAE - News) (TSX:PAE-LV.TO - News), one of North America's fastest growing independent entertainment companies, is pleased to announce that it will market its largest-ever slate of feature film projects at this year's Cannes International Film Festival and Feature Market, which runs May 17-28.
The Company's slate of 11 new feature films to be marketed at Cannes for international distribution reflects the rapid growth of Peace Arch's film pipeline since the beginning of the Company's fiscal year on September 1, 2005. A key component of Peace Arch's strategic business goals is the production and acquisition of new film properties for both its Peace Arch Films label and its fast-growing, recently established Archetype Films banner.
The slate includes four new titles currently in production to be sold under the Peace Arch Films label. The Company will also market an additional seven new titles through its Archetype Films division, which focuses on films in the horror, thriller, action and sci-fi genres. All of the films will be offered to distributors in the U.S. and throughout the world along with other films already in the Peace Arch catalogue.
The Peace Arch strategic development plan calls for the production or acquisition of 4 to 6 films per year intended for theatrical release and sold under the Peace Arch Films label. The Company's Archetype Film division is on track to reach its goal of releasing 10 to 12 horror and other genre titles per year, which are intended primarily for worldwide DVD and television markets. Peace Arch recently announced a multi-picture U.S. DVD distribution agreement for its Archetype projects with Genius Products Inc., one of the leading independent home entertainment distributors in North America. Much of the Archetype slate has already been licensed to major distributors in Canada, Spain, the United Kingdom, Germany and numerous other territories.
"During the last two quarters Peace Arch has been very successful in aggressively expanding both our film production slate and our sales and marketing infrastructure," said John Flock, President of Peace Arch Entertainment. "We've added highly regarded industry veterans like former HBO Films international sales chief Penny Wolf and former Paramount Television international sales head Gary Marenzi to our team; we acquired KaBOOM! Entertainment, one of the best DVD distribution companies in Canada; and we recently entered into an agreement to acquire the 500-title Castle Hill/Dream film library and bring on board Dream's Mark Balsam, one of the most knowledgeable executives in the U.S. distribution market. We've also added top-notch staff in the supporting roles while at the same time filling the distribution pipeline with eleven exciting new films to be marketed at Cannes next week. We believe our investment in product and infrastructure over the past few quarters has given Peace Arch a strong portfolio of projects to sell and a great team to sell them as we enter this new season of sales for the North American and international film marketplace."
Among Peace Arch's latest film acquisitions is the feature "In Tranzit," starring John Malkovich ("Being John Malkovich"), Thomas Kretchmann ("King Kong") and Vera Farmiga ("The Manchurian Candidate") in a gripping drama set in a World War II Soviet prison camp and "How to Change in Nine Weeks" a compelling true story about the perils of teenage life. Other new and recent titles in the Peace Arch slate include:
* "Chapter 27" (Lindsay Lohan, Jared Leto)
* "Delirious" (Steve Buscemi, Michael Pitt)
* "Guantanamero" (Rupert Evans, Sir Derek Jacobi)
* "Shadows in the Sun" (Harvey Keitel, Joshua Jackson)
* "The Confessor" (Christian Slater, Molly Parker)
The Archetype Films titles being presented include:
* "The Last Sect" (David Carradine)
* "5ive Girls" (Ron Perlman)
* "Warriors of Terra" (Edward Furlong)
* "Heartstopper" (Robert Englund)
* "Ultimate Killing Machine" (Michael Madsen)
* "Troubled Waters" (Jennifer Beals)
* "The Veteran" (Ally Sheedy)
* "The Stranger Game" (Mimi Rogers)
* "The Keeper" (Dennis Hopper")
* "Hollywood Flies" (Brad Renfro)

This is the Cannes film festival promo sheet from Peace Arch Entertainment (PAE), now
although I have not read the complete script, look at the images and the wording for the
Chapter 27 promo. Tell me that this will not help lead to sympathy and the eventual parole of John Lennons murderer.

Just posted in the forum, IN TIME




This message was just found posted in the forum of our partner site ( www.boycottchapter27.com ), thought it was worth reposting, it gives a sense of the outrage many are feeling at the very thought of the latest "work of art" being released by Peace Arch Entertainment.

IN TIME

Posted on May 10, 2006 at 01:01:30 AM by aoe1981
A while back I was someone who thought fame was what I wanted. In certain ways and earning it the right way. If there was anyone I wish I could be like or have their essence, not a doubt in my mind, it would be John. I feel miserable when I listen to some of his songs now. It really didn't dawn on me how beautiful this man was. One day I saw a documentary on his life called Imagine. And then I really got hooked on this man. His music was flawless. Then I started to listen to Beatle music non-stop. I bought the Imagine Dvd and watched it everyday. I can't watch it anymore. It hurts alot. As magnificent a life this man lived. All that replays in my head over and over is that he was killed by a spineless coward. Who is alive and well. Oh I'm sorry he's in prison. In maximum security living the life of a peaceful librarian. He's a "born again christian" who thinks John Lennon would say that this yellow piece of scum should be released and free. I don't think so. I'm so furious that no one gave this guy the chair. He's living proof of injustice. And no one will ever harm him ever. He's protected for the rest of his life. These idiotic guards who are doing their "job" won't so much as let this sorry S.O.B. catch a flu. I read in this article just how bad our innocent murderer has it. He had an interview with Larry King a while back stating how bad his "justified" prison sentence was going. Usually you'd expect someone who goes to prison to get what's coming to them by another prisoner right? Not this guy..oh no we can't have that. Then all these idiotic guards wouldn't be doing their job of keeping "justice" in order. These are some quotes of just how bad our murderer has it.Don't worry I'm not gonna say his name but let' s just call him "coward". I'm not making any of this up, these are real quotes by the coward and larry king .
Go to this site or cut and paste it to see. http://transcripts.cnn.com/TRANSCRIPTS/0009/30/lklw.00.html
KING: Yes. How are you treated at that infamous place? Attica, while maybe it got its rap badly when they had the riots, but Attica is known as one of the tough-duty prisons.

Coward: It's a maximum-security prison. It's not the same prison as it was those years ago. I'm treated humanely. I'm eating well, as you can see. I am treated -- once the officers get to know me, they see I'm just like everybody else, if that can be imagined, and I'm treated decently. I don't have any problem here in that area. I'm not beaten or tortured.

KING: Are you in a cell alone?

Coward: Every prisoner in Attica has his own cell. That's one of the good things about Attica.

KING: What kind of room are you in now?

Coward: I'm in a probably a 6 by 8 cell. I'm -- by the way, I have a job. I'm let out every morning at 6:30, and I work throughout the day.

KING: Doing?

Coward: My job is called kitchen man. I help set up the meals for the inmates that are here in this particular building. And I do other things, too, but basically my job is in the kitchen?

KING:The treatment by the other prisoners -- good?

Coward: I'm upstairs with three other inmates, and they're carefully screened. And most of them are going home very soon....

KING: They're nice to you?

Coward: They're very nice to me.

KING: You haven't had any brawls or anything.

Coward: No.

KING: How about homosexualty attacks?

Coward: None, zero.

KING: None at all? None threatened?

Coward: It doesn't happen in this building.

KING: Because it's tightly secure?

Coward: Tightly secure.

Oh no, heaven forbid anything bad should happen to this man. And this fat walrus has been eating well. Just look at his mugshots. I must warn you he looks like a hideous sideshow circus feak. The elephant man was ten times better looking than this fat blob.I can't stand the fact that this scumbag is now getting what he wanted. I'd be willing to bet a million dollars that he will reap the benefits of the film. Perhaps he'll even get to see what is obviously his life's work first hand. A nice air conditioned room where they may even throw in some popcorn and a soft drink .You know what the hell, again christian" so that makes every thing ok. Jared Leto is an even bigger jerk for taking the role for this film. Which is why I think he's perfect for the part of a lame actor playing the role of a pathetic loser human being. That's a perfect casting in my book. It's so obvious why Leto took this role. He just did it to try and win an oscar. He's copying what Charlize Theron did in Monster. He gained some weight to try and be a "serious" actor. Same for Lohan. Lame actress as well. They don't care about the grief of Lennon's death. All they want is to get a stupid award of them benefiting on someone's grief. And they'll hold that award up and smile thinking they did something great. It's sickening to my stomach. They even re-did the whole shooting scene in the exact same spot. They don't care if Yoko is still living their. They're money hungry morons who could care less. And the idiot who funded this produced and directed this is as much to blame as anyone to. I pray for justice. Leto just wants to win the stupid oscar.I hope they boo him if he gets nominated till he goes deaf. Same for Lohan. What gets under my skin even more is that when films are usually finished... they have what is know as a wrapping party.So let me get this straight. They are going to celebrates film about a man who killed someone in cold blood. They are actually going to have their glasses of wine and toast to this film and to the death of John Lennon at their party.And this coward will have his long sought after fame and is alive and well in o harm what so ever in his "justified"prison sentence. While Julian and Sean Lennon are fatherless and Yoko Ono is without her husband. While 50,000 or more people were crying their hearts and souls out for a beautiful human being that sad day.Somebody please answer this question:
"Where is the justice in all this?"
In time, this coward will get his.
All in time.

Small acts can lead to big change



If you found this site searching for pictures of Jared Leto or Lindsey Lohan, please take a moment, stick around and continue reading. This event may begin to shed some light on the man whos memory this site is devoted to protecting.

Had to pass this event along, yes it's in Japan. This is what we should be striving for, events like this remember John Lennon as the man that he was, and always will be to the people that care. Please visit the John Lennon Museum (or at least the website).


JOHN LENNON MUSEUM

At the John Lennon Museum (Junichi Mizusawa, General Manager of the Museum/ Chuo-ku, Saitama-city) (yes, Japan), visitors will receive acorns from June 15, 2006, in commemoration of John and Yoko's Acorn Event on June 15, 1968, in relation to the planning exhibition "John and Yoko's Love & Peace Activities 1968 - 1970 - Acorn Event, John and Yoko's Art, Live, and Love & Peace" held from April 1 to July 31, 2006.
It was the "Acorn Event" on June 15, 1968 that John Lennon and Yoko Ono first showed the message of "Love & Peace" in public appearances. The idea of this event of planting two acorns in an east-west direction was developed as their collaboration work intended for display at the contemporary sculpture exhibition at the Coventry Cathedral in England. A pair of acorns was a symbol of meeting and love of John, born in England, and Yoko, born in Japan. At the same time, it was expressive of their hope for uniting east and west. Though the sculpture exhibition's organizer was reluctant to display the living acorns as a work, the two buried the acorn pot in the grounds of Coventry Cathedral with a shovel in their hand, and the planting ceremony was carried out with no problems. Considering John's thoughts that everybody would understand John and Yoko's feelings when looking at a big oak tree in 50 years, a white bench was placed as a spot to contemplate the growth of the acorns.
At the John Lennon Museum, we will give acorns to visitors from June 15, in hope that they will bring them home to plant and that John and Yoko's message of
Love & Peace continues to be handed down.

Date & Hour: From June 15, 2006 12 p.m. - 6 p.m.
- Giving a pair of acorns to visitors to the Museum (1 pair to 1 family)

* There is a limit to the number.

Beatles Fans - Join us at Meetup.com




We are entering phase two of our campaign, as interest grows, it's time to take the boycott of "Chapter 27", Peace Arch Entertainment, Leto, and Lohan to the next level. We are asking everyone interested in pursuing our common goal to login to www.meetup.com and join one of the many meet-up groups listed for the Beatles. Rather than starting from scratch, we will be using the "Beatles" groups to get our supporters together and plan for future action. This will be a super way to get together and meet people that are as interested as yourselves in stopping the coming disaster, giving MDC the fame that he desires. As well as helping his bid for parole, Imagine if this movie causes the parole board to let this monster out of prison. How would that make the people associated with this film feel? I suppose they wouldn't care, so long as they make a few bucks for themselves and the people sick enough to be stockholders in PAE. After all, what could be more important than money? Apparently nothing as far as this company is concerned.
How we could use John now, as more young people die each day. How long until our young men and woman are dying in Iran?
Give Peace a Chance!!!

We have surpassed 1400 signatures and 200 hits a day



The blog you are reading (only in our second week) is now generating over 200 unique visitors a day. It would certainly appear that we are making some serious progress in growing the support for our boycott of "Chapter 27" and Peace Arch Entertainment. Congratulations to everyone working hard to spread the word and linking us to their sites. We are now being found on Yahoo, MSN, and many of the smaller search engines. We have been Dug, Noted, and appeared on various news websites. Our last press release has really hit a spot with activists in the US and around the world.
As we see Bruce Springsteen and Tom Petty getting active on the anti-war political scene, consider the difference that John could be making, had he not been taken from us by a "man" about to be made famous by a "teen idol", as a poor mentally ill individual. We should all feel "bad" for the poor deranged schizophrenic.... are you kidding me, he was and always will be nothing more than a murderous animal.

Just want to thank everyone again for helping us to surpass the 1400 signature mark and helping to keep the dream of peace alive.
