OK, Brad or someone. Got my copy of Whipped to open Friday and it was used. Did NOT have attached Buying the Cow, but DID have Woman on Top - still loose in the can. Who do I call to get the attached trailer or find out who kept it. I NEVER remove attached trailers and a great majority of the time leave the trailers in the can if I do not use them. We wont go into the bad things I do.

What's the big deal? It was probably a screening print, and AFAIK, they don't run any trailers on a trade screening print (do they?)- I wouldn't unless I was specifically instructed to...

Trying to reunite the attachment with the print, IMO, is a big waste of time and effort... Just find another trailer to place in its place or order another 'Buying The Cow' trailer if you absolutely MUST have THAT trailer at the head of the film.

If you didn't get it, don't play it. Or, if the attached trailer is damaged (scratched or other problem), don't play it. That's what I do.

Was your print "integrity inspected"? I'm curious to know if they let it out of the warehouse WITH an inspection but WITHOUT the attached trailer.
