By removing the attached trailer you are breaching the contract. And Fox knows that the movie is PG therefore they created a newer shorter version of the trailer targeted to the audience. Plus there have been rumors abound that Live Free or Die Hard is going to be PG-13.  |  IP: Logged Darryl Spicer Film God Posts: 3250 From: Lexington, KY, USA Registered: Dec 2000 posted 06-15-2007 03:52 AM                    quote: Ross Oba I don't think you should have removed that trailer because the theaters are legally bound to show whatever is attached to the movie.

If exhibitors have a policy about no PG-13 or R trailers on PG titles they can be removed so long as the studios are made aware of the policy. SOme studios will even make sure they get an appropriate title to put in place of the other trailer.  |  IP: Logged Jeremy Jorgenson Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1002 From: Chicago, IL, USA Registered: Feb 2005 posted 06-16-2007 09:11 PM                        oddly enough, the title on screen eliminates the word "fantastic" altogether: 4 Rise of the Silver Surfer  |  IP: Logged Jake Lafree Expert Film Handler Posts: 136 From: Valparaiso, IN USA Registered: Feb 2006 posted 06-16-2007 11:30 PM                        Our corporate office made it strictly clear for us to remove the "Live Free or Die Hard" attachment from the prints. I realize the attached trailer was shorter and "softer" and if it was up to me, I would've left it on.  |  IP: Logged
