Now this is intersting, why is YE OLDE TIMES Still listed as one of Cinimax's movies?? They even posted the following saying Quote !! ALL INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY POSTED ON THIS SITE IS EITHER OWNED BY OR LICENSED TO CINEMAX PICTURES AND PRODUCTION CO., INTL. INC. and falls under both Canadian and US Copyright Protection Laws and the Writers Guild of America and Canada.

YE OLDE TIMES Staring : Jack Black It?s a romantic comedy about the adventures of a pair of mismatched young lovers who meet while apprenticing at a dysfunctional Renaissance Faire theatre troupe, and their quest to help save it from extinction at the hands of a rival company. Bob White is attached to direct. In addition to his extensive theater experience, Bob directed FRANK'S BOOK, an award-winning comedy short starring John C. Reilly.
Jack Black is attached to play the mysterious and possibly unreliable narrator, Gordon Shockworthy. He's a young Elizabethan literature professor out to teach an over-privileged student an unconventional lesson about life and love. Scott Reed and Ron Singer are co-producing with their production company, that?s Hollywood Studio Productions.
With approximately 40 "major" renaissance fairs in the country (each attracting an average of between 100,000 and 300,000 people each year), the core audience for this film is substantial (4 million, conservatively). This alone will justify its production and marketing costs. Furthermore, a loyal audience, galvanized to promote the film within its own community, will become the flashpoint for mushrooming word-of-mouth which will carry the film beyond its communal radius into an even larger market.?
What I would love to know is just who is BS'ing who here???
Re: Cinemax taking 'Ye Olde Times' off their website, per Kimmel Intl's attorney,
Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2007 15:18:04 -0800 From: "R. Mendelsohn" To: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Subject: Re: Cinemax, Ye Olde Times &The Whole Banana
Hi XXXXXXXX:
I don't know how to respond to your email except to inform you that we have had no affiliation with or interest in Cinemax to date.
My client, Patriot Pictures, LLC is producing "Ye Olde Times" without any involvement from Cinemax.
I only recently became aware of Cinemax because someone queried as to whether Cinemax is involved with our production of "Ye Olde Times." They are not. It is my understanding that Cinemax appears to have agreed to voluntarily and immediately remove any reference to "Ye Olde 'Times" from their website. I await their compliance.
Cinemax has expressed interest in investing in "Ye Olde Times," but we cannot begin to consider same unless and until they remove any reference from their website and we receive proof of funds and a recommendation from a well respected Canadian Law firm, which to date has not occurred.. I don't have any information regarding "The Whole Banana."
It sounds like you may want to hire counsel to help you with this matter.
I hope that the foregoing is helpful.
Randy

I can't believe it! We're talking about a company that seemed so credible! The fact they were using the name of a large American cable company NEVER made me suspicious at all! And ANY business enterprise involving Lloyd Fan is ALWAYS so on the up-and-up.
