Author Topic: United Artists Sean M. Grimes Expert Film Handler Posts: 247 From: Lunenburg, MA Registered: Apr 2000 posted 09-18-2000 03:03 PM                        Well in the mail today I got a notice of Chapter eleven filing of United Artists and all of it's entities. I guess that all of the giants are begining to fall. I am just happy that it started there and not here  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 09-18-2000 05:42 PM                     Do you work for UA? Please elaborate.  |  IP: Logged Sean M. Grimes Expert Film Handler Posts: 247 From: Lunenburg, MA Registered: Apr 2000 posted 09-18-2000 06:55 PM                        Nope I work for an ex-Regal theater that used to rent out auds. for United Artists Satellite Events and in the mail today I got a United States Bankruptcy Court notice from the District of Delaware outlining the procedures for their filing of Chapter 11 The date of the proceedings is September 5, 2000. This came as a shock to find in the mail because my current theater chain has no ties with UA at all anymore but to the best of my knowledge they are sending this out to anyone that may be owed money to U.A.  |  IP: Logged Rob Brooks Film Handler Posts: 57 From: NY, U.S.A.

I know a projectionist who worked for them 1 day two years ago who got the letter.  |  IP: Logged
