At long last, Technicolor has finally set up a website for exhibitor relations.
http://exhibitor.technicolor.com From there all you need is your Technicolor ID and you can order ad slicks, one-sheets, and trailers. The only drawback to the site is they do not have every movie listed. I went there to order materials for approximately ten titles and only got three. Plus, just like the real deal, many materials are back ordered.
Still, it's better than no website at all.

Wow, the JavaScript on that site is a terrible dog. Painfully and unacceptably slow. On the whole, it does seem like a reasonable site though. The "order status" section is kind of nice.
At first, I was a little concerned about security, but I guess it's just as secure as the telephone system, if not a little bit more.
Anyone know how long this has been around? Some of the copy suggests it has been there since 2001...--jhawk

jhawk,It's still pretty early in 2002. I am betting that some of the stuff was designed and tested while the calendar still said 2001.

I just got the fax from Technicolor about it today (3-2-02). So I'm guessing it's only been around for a few weeks. Also, anyone who registers from now until July 4th will be entered to win a DVD player. Not too shabby.
