Complaint Review: YORK ENTERTAINMENT - SHERMAN OAKS California

     Wow. Almost 3 pages on something totally off topic. You are have a bug up your butt regarding Joe Guinan, don’t you? This isn’t about the con man Joe Guinan, it’s about York Entertainment.

So why are you crapping in my pool? I am not the first one taken in by York Entertainment, nor will I be the last. So your pompous holier than thou attitude doesn't impress me one single bit.

The last person who lectured me, was my father and he’s long since gone from the world.

Therefore, your lecture is unwelcome and irrelevant in my view.  More importantly, why are you diverting the issue away from it's main subject: Tanya York? No one ever said Joe Guinan was an angel. What you fail to understand is my point! "game recognizes game".  

      My mention of Joe Guinan, was not so you could bathe in your own self edification, it was to relate my surprise that a rip off artist like Guinan would reveal such an insight about one of his proteges. However, regardless of your off topic rant, Tanya York and her crew of con men rip off filmmakers of all types.

After all, all of us are not  rich enough, or connected enough, or brown nosing enough, like your entitled arse to get big film deals at the press of a button! 

My God! Forgive me for being an dumb old unknown black filmmaker who does not have rump kissing buddies in Beverly hills! That silver spoon eluded me!

     Look, you can save the bantering for someone who gives a crap. I am a grown Black man with Master's degree in film. How dare you, you bigoted clown.

    You don't know jack about what I do, or what I've been through and you certainly don't know who you're talking to. The bottom line is, Hollywood is full of scam artists, and Tanya York got me. She got a lot of people.

Do you troll everyone who got taken by York, or am I your "Special boy".

For the record, I made more money through my association with Mister Guinan.  Even without his knowledge.

But, just so you don't yell at me again, for the record, they’re all rats.   SMH.

Your condemnation of me may make you feel better, but it don't change a d**n thing. Instead of berating the victim, my not show some guts and take on these bums like me. Disparaging my character makes you no better than the rats who ripped me off!  

Good luck with that!

I appreciate the earnesty in your complaint, but ultimately you have no one to blame except yourself.  

Now it all makes complete sense.  If Joe was truly Tanya's mentor , then obviously Joe is just jealous and outraged that his student was more successful than he.  This is a similar situation to the position he finds himself in again with another con artist and scammer named Erick Hansen. It must be so embarrassing and humiliating him for a man of Joe's stature, to have an even bugger scammer then he is take advantage of him and scam him.   

While I am no fan of the crappy B and C grade level movies Tonya is involved in, that you clearly have made one of, I am more than confident that you were the one who signed her contract. Therefore, it was your legal and professional responsibility to own up to your own shortcomings by not having your legal counsel present when you signed a document that was potentially exploitive to you.  

Regarding Joe Guinan, which can be verified many via many credible places, his felony previous drug charges, semi recent and presently UNPAID fine for securities fraud by the state of California, and outstanding arrest warrants California and New Mexico, are only the beginning with this guy.   When called on his own it reprehensible conduct towards others both personally and professionally, such inquiries are met with libelous defamation of character, homophobic attacks, and outright harassing, and psychotic unstable behavior.   

In short,  Joe Guinan is no saint, and makes even lower grade level "films" than Ms. York. The ultimate reality is that the apples do not fall too far from their trees.   If he trained her, then all you have to do is look at his ethics first and foremost.    Therefore if you were an intelligent consumer and motion picture producer, you would've properly done your research and homework before signing what you consider to be an unfair document without negotiation, or legal representation.    

I do not support or trust, for obvious reasons, any person that was mentored by JOE GUINAN. His methods are both unsound, oftentimes illegal, and are always met by psychologically disturbed response.   

The only person here who has done anything wrong is you.   You made a poor choice. If you're ever given the luxury, and not the expectation to make another film perhaps you will remember that if it sounds too good to be true, it always is.
