Klipsch Audio - your out!!! Supporting Chapter 27...Disgraceful


Klipsch Audio, your on our list. How could such an "intelligent" company support Peace Arch Entertainment and Chapter 27? We your consumers are very disappointed on your decision. Consider for a moment how many great John Lennon songs are played on your equipment. How much more additional speaker systems would be sold if John Lennon was still making music today? Bad Choice Klipsch.
Sundance -- Klipsch Audio Technologies announced today that it is hosting the upcoming post-premiere parties for two of Sundance Film Festival's most anticipated films: "Black Snake Moan," starring Samuel L. Jackson, Justin Timberlake and Christina Ricci, and "Chapter 27," with Jared Leto and Lindsay Lohan. The post-premiere party for "Black Snake Moan" will be held on January 24 and "Chapter 27's" will be held on January 25 in Park City, UT. Both events promise to be main destinations for top stars, and will serve as a celebration of Klipsch Audio Technologies' growing commitment to organically supporting cinema's most compelling independent films.

"Klipsch Audio Technologies has chosen to support 'Black Snake Moan' and 'Chapter 27' because these two extraordinary films and its stars echo our core values of power, detail and emotion," said Judy Klipsch (you suck...poor decision), Vice Chairman of the Klipsch Group. "Partnering with these films and supporting their releases is a natural fit for the brand, as the stars in these films have made successful crossovers from film to music, music to film, just as Klipsch has expanded beyond its core strength of audio technology to achieve greatness."

The collaboration between both films and Klipsch, a leader in home entertainment and audio technology, is part of the company's ongoing involvement in the entertainment industry at large. As part of their commitment to supporting the film industry, in 2005, Klipsch outfitted the historical Aidikoff Theater in Beverly Hills with a state-of-the-art cinema sound system in order to provide the ultimate sound experience for screenings for celebrities, industry influencers and the press. In addition, Klipsch has executed numerous entertainment marketing initiatives in both film and music at marquee events such as the MTV Video Music Awards, the ESPY Awards, the Grammys, and the Sundance Film Festival.

Chapter 27 should not have the support of any company involved in music.

About the Films:

"Black Snake Moan," a Paramount Vantage film, stars Samuel L. Jackson, Justin Timberlake, and Christina Ricci. Set in a small Tennessee town, "Black Snake Moan" tells the story of two unlikely souls who are about to be drawn together at the sticky crossroads between rage and love. It will premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on January 24.

"Chapter 27" is set in New York City, December 1980 and tells the story of a young man, Mark David Chapman (Jared Leto), who arrives in New York with the intent to kill John Lennon. A depressed and unstable soul, Chapman is torn between his love and awe for John Lennon's persona and his desire to kill Lennon in order to gain notoriety for himself. Scheduled to premiere at the Sundance Film Festival on January 25, "Chapter 27" also stars Lindsay Lohan as Judy, a fan of John Lennon who makes friends with Chapman.

A fantastic essay written by Frank (one of the big boycottchapter27.org supporters)

Are We A Nation Obsessed With Murderers Of All Kinds?
Current mood: Hopeful,Confident & Optimistic
Category: Hopeful,Confident & Optimistic Movies, TV, Celebrities

With the movie Chapter 27 now premiering at Sundance,I have been seeing that we in the USA are actually obsessed with murderers.In the past 50 years,we are seeing in more ways than one,that there are quite a few movies about murderers being made and released into theatres and even on TV of all kinds be it network or cable.It seems that Hollywood and independent film companies are making these movies to whet the appetite of the people in this country.With Jarrett Schaeffer making Chapter 27,he is simply trying to make money off of this obsession and try to become rich of the misery of fans,admirers and loved ones of one of the greatest men who ever lived,John Lennon.

Case in point;Has anyone here ever seen the movie by Oliver Stone entitled Natural Born Killers?Is anyone here even aware of it?It doesn't matter which version,be it the R rated version or the Unrated version.If anyone here has,then you know what I am saying here.

Oliver Stone made this movie with a message.The message is that the people,mostly the media and certain cult like individuals,are indeed obsessed with murderers.Stone made his point really clear when he took the daring move to make this movie and bring this age old truth to our eyes and ears.In that movie,Mick and Mallory Knox were notorious serial murderers who went on seemingly unending killing spree and were glamorized in the media and by people.One person actually held up a sign honoring them saying "Murder Me,Mickey!!" The media even asked Mickey "What Do You Have To Say To Your Fans?" Mickey answered "You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet!" and they achieve what they are hoping for.They have fame and celebrity styled notoriety.All the while,nobody and I mean NOBODY even considers the families who lost their loved ones all because of Mickey And Mallory Knox killing them.One of the taglines for this film was: "In The Media Circus of Life,They Were The Main Attraction!" On the poster itself it said as follows: "Director Oliver Stone Brings You A Bold New Look At A Country Seduced By Fame,Obsessed With Crime and Consumed By The Media!"

That poster was right on the money.Stone only made this movie as a statement about the USA's obsession with people who really do not deserve to be in the limelight.Killers truly do not deserve any fame or celebrity styled notoriety.Though the film's story is fictional,Stone claimed that the film was "Inspired By Actual Events" from the past and the present.Stone made this film as a way of pointing out the shortcomings of this country and the people who make stars out of monsters such as the characters in that film and that this country has always had an obsession with these types that is as old as time itself.Plus,a certain amount of folklore is always made around these types.It seems that North American's have a murder fetish that has now gone overboard with no end in sight.Yes the movie was controversial.Yes the movie was overly graphically violent.Yes the movie was shocking.But the shocking thing is that murderers are always getting everything that they do not deserve and are also smiling all the way to the bank(so to speak).Examples are Charles Manson,Ted Bundy,Richard Ramirez, John E.List,Dennis Rader(BTK),Joe Hunt and Jeffrey Dahmer.Many movies and documentaries have been made about them and they are well known on the internet with many articles about them.

This hopefully proves my point.

Jarrett Schaeffer is only making Chapter 27 as a gamble.He's gambling with the notion of the USA's obsession with murderers and is actually hoping to make a lot of money off of this venture regarding this obsession.Not only that,there is also a musical play called Asassins and many well known murderers are showcased in this,including the man who murdered John Lennon who shall remain nameless.The worst thing about Chapter 27 is that Mr Schaeffer claims to be a fan of both The Beatles and John Lennon.I feel that if he truly were a fan of them,he would not have made this worthless excuse of a film to give THAT MAN notoriety that he truly does not deserve.Besides,who really wants to know what was going on in Lennon's murderers mind anyway?Who the heck really cares?Certainly not me,that's who.

The only thing that we can hope is that this move by Mr.Schaeffer BOMBS and that he rolls snake eyes with his gamble and not make anything off of this disgusting commercial venture.

Again,I hope that this proves my point.

Frank...Thanks again...nice work....PEACE

So someone (person/company/organization/corporation) supporting something contrary to your belief or opinion is automatically wrong or making a poor decision by offering their support? In this case, supporting organic cinema and core independent film values? I'm sure it's not the storyline they are directly supporting, but regardless, I'm not so sure close mindedness was something that your Mr. Lennon would be singing about.
