FC Bayern Munich vs SC Preußen Münster
Has the FC Bayern Munich ever played against the SC Preußen Münster? --84.61.131.18 (talk) 07:51, 16 July 2010 (UTC)


 * According to this forum, there was a friendly game in 1994. Bayern Munich won 7:0. Someone asked the same question in the forum I'm quoting, and "Skeletor" actually e-mailed SC Preußen Münster and got the above information as a reply. The link they gave in that forum doesn't show this information anymore, however . ---Sluzzelin talk  09:19, 16 July 2010 (UTC)
 * The website must have been redesigned. The page about that game is now here. Indeed the result is 0:7 (0:1), and the game on 28 January 1994 is the only one ever to have taken place between the two teams. Xenon54 (talk) 13:40, 16 July 2010 (UTC)

Why hasn't the FC Bayern Munich ever played a league match against the SC Preußen Münster? --84.61.131.18 (talk) 19:24, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
 * To answer simply, they have never been in the same league at the same time.


 * Preußen Münster was a founding member of the Bundesliga, however the 1963/64 season has been their only one in the top level so far. They spent 1964/65 to 80/81 and 89/90 to 90/91 in the old Regionalliga West, and later the 2. Bundesliga Nord (the first iteration of the 2. Bundesliga, when there were 2 leagues of 20 teams each). Between 81/82 and 88/89 and since 91/92 they have been in lower levels, slipping most recently to the now-fourth-tier Regionalliga West.


 * Perhaps ironically, Bayern München were not selected to take part in the Bundesliga's first season. In 64/65 they were champions of the new second division Regionalliga Süd and therefore have participated in the Bundesliga since 65/66.


 * Before the creation of the Bundesliga the top divisions were the Oberligen. Bayern Munich played in the Oberliga Süd, while Preußen Münster played in the Oberliga West. Xenon54 (talk) 20:39, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

Why is the SC Preußen Münster the only club which has ever be played in the Bundesliga, but has not played a single Bundesliga match against the FC Bayern Munich? --84.61.131.18 (talk) 07:52, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
 * It's probably just turned out that way. Why would you expect there to be others? --Viennese Waltz talk 09:05, 18 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Assuming you mean the top Bundesliga division, Bayern Munich have played all but the first two seasons, so they will have played every team which has competed in it in or after the 1965-66 season. Only three teams were relegated before that season: Hertha BSC and 1. FC Saarbrücken managed promotion back to it in later years, so that leaves only SC Preußen Münster.  Several teams in the 2. Fußball-Bundesliga have never competed in the top league and have, therefore, never met Bayern Munich in the Bundesliga. Warofdreams talk 14:56, 19 July 2010 (UTC)

FIlm Copyright on The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas, & Inglourious Basterd (2009)

 * It is illegal to show them to the public without expressed written consent from the film distributor. Inglourious Basterds is from the Weinstein Company.  The Boy in the Striped Pajamas is from Mirimax films.  Since both are on DVD release now, you will need to work out a release to show it through both the main company and the DVD distributor - which will likely take many years and end with a refusal. --  k a i n a w &trade; 22:13, 16 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Maybe not so much, depending on where you are: http://www.film-center.com/ppr.html. 72.2.54.34 (talk) 23:59, 16 July 2010 (UTC)


 * Notice that the Weinstein companies are not in the list of phone numbers to call at the bottom of the page. My negativity about getting permission to charge people for a public performance (which is what the OP stated he will be doing) is not based solely on Hollywood's money-thirst.  It is based on the Weinstein's extreme unquenchable money-thirst. --  k a i n a w &trade; 01:09, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
 * Mirimax is now Disney-owned. The Weinsteins are out of the picture there. 72.2.54.34 (talk) 01:56, 17 July 2010 (UTC)

 * It's perfectly possible to hire films for public paid showings in many jurisdictions, provided that you A) have the appropriate public performance licence from your local governmental authority*, and B) that you hire the films from a company (who may require payment in advance and/or other sureties if you are not a regular customer) that is licenced by the film's owners to provide them in this way, and who will pass on part of the (not insubstantial) fee to those owners. This document (found in seconds by googling "film hire") explains the requirements (and lists some suppliers) in the UK, as an example.
 * [*Addendum: the public performance licence usually applies to the venue rather to the individual, so if you were to hire a hall which has such a licence for your screening, you'd be covered.] 87.81.230.195 (talk) 16:09, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
