Ask me shit!
About the author(s): MjH grew up in the suburbs of Encino, CA, born into a family of hilarious Jews. His mother, a witty New Yorker with a sharp tongue, set the bar pretty high in terms of what he looks for in a wife/Jewess.
Forever wearing glasses and on the hunt for Jewish cunt, our man wants you to know that he once schtupped a dame at DIVE! in Century City.

I’m reading this now. Glad to see the Basterds in good spirits last night. QT will forever be the Mickey Mouse to Harvey’s Walt Disney, no matter what company the Weinsteins take over, nor what said company is named.
Look - The Weinstein Bros are animals…this is not new information. However, take into consideration that this company, which was founded for their love of cinema and named after their parents, Miriam and Max, is their baby.
Seriously. These two are the Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse of Miramax. (Quentin Tarantino is REALLY the Mickey Mouse, but hey…for argument’s sake).
As you may know, Disney is accepting offers for Miramax, because, well, the Mouse House no longer has a need for niche-films. Disney wants to re-brand itself as the home of family films, theme parks, and home entertainment. They want to sell this sucker real bad.
Daniel Battsek, while an adept business-man, was really brought in to streamline the company after Bob and Harv were ousted and forced to form TWC and ease the transition from indy powerhouse to ——- I really don’t know what. Battsek did his thing, and had a string of memorable films, but it’s not his baby. He has since found a new home at National Geographic Films. Ross Richie and Bob Iger are done with The Max. I understand why — the days of making $100M on Pulp Ficition, winning Oscars for art-house pics, and being able to intimidate people into getting what you want is pretty much over. There’s still foul-play at some levels, but not the kind that was written about by Peter Biskind in the Miramax tell-all, DOWN AND DIRTY PICTURES. Disney wants to focus on being Disney, especially now that it’s restructured. This is just another piece of deadweight in their eyes.
Who knew having a film library with some of the most memorable and thought-provoking movies in the past two decades was a burden? Hey, that’s just the way the Hollywood cookie has crumbled.

Thanks for making this happen, Dad. Love you.
It’s the official end of an era.
Bob/Harv - I’m weaping for ya, but something tells me you ain’t going down so easy.
In all honesty, thank you for distributing some of my all time favorite films, many of which shaped the man I am today.
