GOING, GOING, GONE

BY MICHAEL DOSSIER / July 28, 2006
The DVD Dossier

CleanFlicks, which lost a lawsuit brought by Hollywood directors and movie studios a few weeks ago - but vowed to continue to fight for its right to excise sex, violence and profanity from movies - is closing up shop.

As of today, those who go to the company's homepage are redirected to a "liquidation sale" page with an animated "Going Out of Business" banner informing visitors that this is your "last chance to buy your favorite edited movies" and to "hurry while supplies last."
The sale - restricted to former customers only - may come as a surprise to Judge Richard P. Matsch, who ordered the firm to hand over all inventory to the movie studios.

Spielberg says no one has the right to impose their truth on top of his. My response to that is, he's the God of truth? We just want to watch a movie without sex and nudity.
Ray Lines, C.E.O. Clean Flicks

Sometimes a movie can be like a Trojan Horse from Satan.

A lot of people are just really tired of [. . . ] turning on the TV or renting a movie and constantly being hit by violence, profanity and nudity. A lot of people want to go back to the 1950s, before this sort of thing was routine.
Sandra Teraci, Family Flix USA

This has very little to do with protecting children. There are all kinds of religious, political and ideological biases at work.
Robert Rosen, Dean of UCLA Film

Sanitizing movies to delete content that may offend some people is an illegitimate business.
Judge Richard Matsch, U.S. District Court

I think it's stupid that Hollywood is getting all artistic and putting that garbage into films.
Dawn Gillings, Cougar Video Customer

It's sad that Hollywood finds it wrong to take out profanity, sexual content and nudity.
Daniel Thompson, Clean Flicks Dealer

People have been ordering $200, $300 worth of movies. What else can they do? They know it's the last chance they'll have. This is Satan at his best.
Mandy Botts, Manager of 3 Clean Flicks Dealerships

Audiences can now be assured that the films they buy or rent are the vision of the filmmakers who made them and not the arbitrary choices of a third-party editor.
Michael Apted, DGA

This is a typical case of David vs. Goliath, but in this case, Hollywood rewrote the ending. We're going to continue to fight.
Ray Lines, C.E.O. Clean Flicks

Once you edit Kate Winslett’s breasts out of 'Titanic,' what’s the point of the movie? It is a little-known fact that the inspiration for 'Titanic' began when James Cameron asked himself, 'How can I get Kate Winslett to take off her clothes on camera?'
Robert Stacy McCain, Opinion Columnist and Blogger

Daniel Dean Thompson . . . has NEVER been a partner, officer, affiliate, dealer, franchisee, collaborator, consultant or representative of any Clean Flicks entity in any capacity.
