A New Distributor Enters the Field?

Crash Media Group Inc., A.G.E. Inc., and Sony’s RED Distribution have partnered to announce the formation of Anime Crash, which promises an “exclusive internationally known Anime Crash DVD line which will be a launch-pad and showcase for animation from Japan and beyond.”

“From post-apocalyptic worlds where the biological and mechanical merge into one, to deadly fatal flying fists, to wood sprites with furry side-kicks and everything in between!” “Many of the companies who represent A-pop in the U.S. have only relied on the traditional fan-based model… in the next 24 months we will alter that situation using new and patented technologies that will bring Asian pop-culture to the bleeding-edge potential that has not even been slightly realized in the U.S.”

Crash Media Group Inc. is the “parent company of Crash Cinema and Anime Crash, the nation’s first full service Asian pop-culture retail chain.”

A.G.E. Inc. is an industry renowned entertainment think tank and the company behind the Micronauts franchise.

Sony’s RED Distribution handles “such diverse titles as Marilyn Manson, The Man Show, and Tony Hawk.”
