Funny thing happened tonight, while building up the Fast & The Furious, our DTS discs we noted, were for Crazy/beautiful. I've never had this happen before, and have figued that they must have a good track record for shipping the correct discs, anyone else ever encounter this problem?

It happened to us once in six years. Not too bad.

TES has been calling theaters this afternoon that were slated to receive prints of Fast and Furious today about whether they got the correct discs. At least they're on top of it.

Yes, as soon as I got to work Wednesday morning, I got some coffee, sat down at the computer, and boom, the phone is ringing...it's TES and they're shipping the correct ones. I'm very happy with how the handled it.

I want to be sure that you all understand that DTS supplies discs to the film distribuator and they put the discs in the can with the film.
