PART I
ITEM 1. BUSINESS
(a) GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
The Company develops, produces and markets various entertainment properties,
including without limitation, the intellectual product(s) of entities engaged in
the motion picture, television, and theatrical state productions,such as
creative writers, producers and directors, for the motion picture, pay/cable and
commercial television markets and, until September 1995 through its then 50.1%
owned subsidiary, Willy Bietak Productions, Inc. ("WBPI"), produced and operated
small touring ice shows and theme shows appearing in theatres, casinos, and
major amusement parks and arenas. On September 29, 1995, in consideration of
guarantees of certain bank debt of WBPI, provided WBPI by its minority
shareholder, the Company transferred 65,900 of its shares of WBPI common stock
to such minority shareholder, thereby reducing the Company's interest to 30%.
Until December 1998 a wholly-owned subsidiary, International Theatres
Corporation ("ITC"), of the Company operated the Chanhassen Dinner Theatre in
Chanhassen, Minnesota which the Company acquired in 1993.
On December 17, 1998 the Board of Directors passed a resolution to transfer the
Company's interest in ITC and its remaining interest in WBPI to the Company's
CEO as repayment of $100,000 on account of advances made to the Company by the
Company's CEO. In setting the $100,000 amount the Board of Directors obtained
and relied upon an independent market analysis of ITC and WBPI by Lingate
Financial Group, a Minnesota corporation.
The Company may be unable to continue as a going concern without raising
additional funds from outside sources. Management is uncertain as to the
likelihood of raising additional funds. (See Liquidity and Sources of Capital
for Further Discussion.)
The Company was organized under Minnesota law in 1983. The Company's executive
offices are located at 4701 IDS Center, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402 and its
telephone number is (612) 333-5100.
(b) FINANCIAL INFORMATION ABOUT INDUSTRY SEGMENTS
The Company's operations are attributable to one business segment. The
ownership, production, and operation of entertainment attractions.
(c) ACCOUNTANTS OPINION
PAGE 2
The Company's independent auditors issued their opinion on the Company's
financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2001, which included an
explanatory paragraph as to substantial doubt about the Company's ability to
continue as a going concern. This doubt was raised primarily due to recurring
losses from operations and due to the Company's stockholders' deficit of $
1,032,516 at September 30, 2001.
(d) NARRATIVE DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS
(i) International Theatres Corporation
As previously discussed, on December 17, 1998 the Board of
Directors in reliance upon an independent market analysis transferred
International Theatres Corporation to the Company's CEO as partial repayment of
$100,000 of advances. (See Footnote 12 to Financial Statements)
(ii) Motion Pictures, Pay/Cable, and Television
In producing entertainment properties for motion picture,
pay/cable and commercial television, the Company has limited its costs to those
incurred prior to the commencement of principal photography, either at a studio
or on selected site(s). It has been the Company's intention to produce or
co-produce and arrange for the distribution of primarily feature length motion
pictures with production financing derived from third party sources. The Company
has reported no revenues from motion pictures, pay/cable and television during
1999, 2000 and 2001. At September 30, 2001, the Company had two (2) properties
of which only one of which was substantially completed. All entertainment
properties have been charged to expenses.
The profits of an enterprise involved in the entertainment
industry generally and, particularly, the motion picture, television and music
industries are greatly dependent upon the audience appeal of each creative
product, compared with the cost of such product's purchase, development,
production and distribution. Competition is intense both within the motion
picture and television industry and other entertainment media. The Company is in
competition with major film studios, as well as with numerous "independent"
motion picture and television production companies for the acquisition of
artistic properties, and the services of artistic, creative and technical
personnel. The Company is unaware of any recognized approach to determined its
or any participants' position in these industries. Moreover, the Company's
financial resources does not suggest that it would be considered a "major
participant in these industries.
PAGE 3
ITEM 2. PROPERTIES/Real Estate Related
The Company leases, as its headquarters, 1,941 square feet of office space at
4701 IDS Center, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402. The Company's motion picture and
television operations lease 160 square feet of office space at 3575 Cahuenga
Blvd. West, Los Angeles, California 90048. Affiliates of the Company are
presently advancing the rent for this space. Management believes that there is
adequate space available in the Los Angeles area to accommodate its California
operations.
ITEM 3. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Company is not involved in any material legal proceedings.
ITEM 4. SUBMISSION OF MATTERS TO A VOTE OF SECURITY HOLDERS
No matter was submitted to a vote of security holders during the fourth quarter
of the fiscal year covered by this Report.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
THE RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
OPERATIONS
YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001 TO YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30 1999
Continuing operations consisted primarily of administrative
expenses and interest expenses. Administrative expenses were
$15,569 for 2001 compared to $14,149 for 2000. Interest
expense were $51,500 for 2001 and 2000. During 2001 the
Company recorded a gain on extinguishment of Pike debt of
$302,179. (See note 13 to consolidated financial statements.
The gain was reported as an extra ordinary item.
YEAR ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2000 COMPARED TO SEPTEMBER 30, 1999
Continuing operations consisted primarily of administrative
expenses and interest expenses. Administrative expenses were
$14,149 for 2000 compared to $15,530 for 1999. Interest
expense was $51,500 for 2000 compared to $ 51,497 for 1999.
Year ended September 30, 1999 compared to September 30, 1998
Due to the disposal of ITC and WBPI as discussed in Item 1(a),
their respective revenues and expenses have been classified as
discontinued operations. Continuing operations consisted
primarily of administrative expenses and interest expense.
Administrative expenses were $15,530 for 1999 compared to
$221,883 for 1998. The decrease is primarily due to the
elimination of expenses related to ITC. Interest expense was
$51,497 for 1999
PAGE 5
compared to $ 98,313 for 1998. The decrease was primarily due
to the elimination of interest expense attributable to the
Pike in 1999.
LIQUIDITY AND SOURCES OF CAPITAL
Cash used by continuing operating activities for the year ended
September 30, 2001 was $14,733 compared to $7,415 in the comparable
prior year period. Cash provided by financing activities for the year
ended September 30, 2001 was comprised of $14,700 in advances from the
Company's CEO.
Management intends to continue to restrict expenditures with respect to
the future development of entertainment properties and to market its
completed properties. The Company has two completed properties. The
costs of development have been written off. Accordingly, the Company
will incur little, if any, costs of marketing. Management believes
these actions may contribute to the Company's liquidity. The Company
had no material commitments for capital expenditures as of September
30, 2001 and capital expenditures for fiscal 2002 are expected to be
immaterial.
During the fiscal years ended September 30, 2001, 2000, and 1999, the
Company incurred substantial losses from continuing operations of $
67,069, $65,649, and $ 67,027, respectively, and has a working capital
deficit as of September 30, 2001 of $1,032,516. The impact of these
losses is to limit the liquidity and available cash resources for
operations.
During the fiscal years ended September 30, 1999 and 1998 and 1997, the
Company's CEO made cash advances to the Company in order to meet cash
flow needs. These advances were secured by the Company's shares of
stock in ITC and WPBI. In December 1998 the Company's management, with
approval of the Board of Directors, transferred the assets and
operations of ITC and the Company's investment in WBPI to the CEO as
partial repayment of the advances made to the Company. There can be no
assurances that the Company's CEO and major stockholder will advance
any amount(s) either as loans or capital contributions in the future.
See Note 12 to Financial Statements This left the Company with no
on-going operating business or operating assets.
The Company's operations subsequent to the disposition of its
subsidiaries consist of acquisition searches and certain administrative
costs, both of which could be scaled back and/or financed by the
Company's CEO and major stockholder. There can be no assurances that
the Company's CEO and major stockholder will advance any amount(s)
either as loans or capital contributions in the future.
PAGE 6
The Company intends to continue to seek out potential acquisitions,
However, potential acquisitions are in the early stages of
investigations. Since the Company has no bank lines of credit it
intends to finance any acquisitions with to be negotiated senior bank
financing of approximately 60%, and the remainder with a combination of
other debt and equity instruments. There are no assurances that the
Company will successfully identify these or any other potential
acquisitions or that, if identified, it will obtain financing under
terms acceptable to the Company. Management presently considers an
acquisition or a merger of the Company a viable alternative.
The Company raised during 1996 financing from outside sources of
approximately $400,000, due to inadequate cash flow and insufficient
funds of the Pike. Such financing was due in December, 1996, and is
secured by the common stock of the Pike. Management anticipates the
majority of the financing will be converted into the Company's common
stock. Management attempted to sell the Company's interest in the Pike,
but was unsuccessful. There are no assurances that the financing will
be converted into the Company's common stock. During the year ended
September 30, 2001, the Pike was legally dissolved. The Company's
consolidated balance sheet includes $302,179 of liabilities of the Pike
as of September 30, 2000. These liabilities were removed from the
consolidated balance sheet as of September 30, 2001 and a gain on
extinguishment was recognized. (See Note 13 to the consolidated
financial statements)
The Company's independent auditors issued their opinion on the
Company's financial statements for the year ended September 30, 2001,
which included an explanatory paragraph as to substantial doubt about
the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. This doubt was
raised primarily due to recurring losses from operations, the Company's
stockholder's deficit of $ 1,032,516 at September 30, 2001, and to no
ongoing operations.

executive officer (CEO) provided short-term advances of $14,700 and $7,419,
respectively to the Company. These amounts were required to be reported as
additional paid in capital in the accompanying financial statements. The
advances contained specific repayment provisions and, as such, when repayments
occur, a corresponding reduction additional paid in capital would occur.
On December 17, 1998, the Board of Directors passed a resolution to transfer the
Company's interest in its subsidiaries ITC and WBPI to the Company's CEO as
repayment of $100,000 in advances the Company's CEO had made to the Company (see

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND STOCKHOLDERS
CENTURY PARK PICTURES CORPORATION
MINNEAPOLIS, MINNESOTA
Independent Auditors' Report
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of CENTURY PARK
PICTURES CORPORATION as of September 30, 2001 and 2000, and the related
consolidated statements of operations, changes in stockholders' deficit, and
cash flows for the years ended September 30, 2001, 2000, and 1999. These
consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these consolidated
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in
the consolidated financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the
accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well
as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present
fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position of CENTURY
PARK PICTURES CORPORATION as of September 30, 2001 and 2000, and the
consolidated results of its operations and its cash flows for the years ended
September 30, 2001, 2000, and 1999 in conformity with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America.
The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming
that the Company will continue as a going concern. As discussed in Note 10 to
the consolidated financial statements, the Company has suffered recurring losses
from operations, and its total liabilities exceed its total assets. Those
conditions raise substantial doubt about its ability to continue as a going
concern. Management's plans regarding those matters are also described in Note
10. The consolidated financial statements do not include any adjustments that
might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

CENTURY PARK PICTURES CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANICAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001, 2000, AND 1999
1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND CONSOLIDATION:
CENTURY PARK PICTURES CORPORATION (the Company) is engaged in the
development, production, and marketing of entertainment properties.
International Theatres Corporation (ITC) was a 100 percent owned
subsidiary, which owned and operated the Chanhassen Dinner Theatres in
Chanhassen, Minnesota. During the year ended September 30, 1999, ITC was
transferred to the majority shareholder (see Note 12). During the normal
course of business, ITC granted credit to its corporate clients. ITC
performed on-going credit evaluations of its customers' financial
condition and generally required no collateral from them.
Minnesota Arena Football, Inc. dba Minnesota Fighting Pike (Pike), a 100
percent owned subsidiary, was an indoor professional football team that
the Company obtained the rights to during the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1996. The Pike ceased operations on August 31, 1996.
During the year ended September 30, 1999, the Pike recognized income of
$627,835 due to forgiveness of debt to a shareholder and a related
company. As of December 31, 1999, Minnesota Arena Football was legally
dissolved. During the year ended September 30, 2001, all outstanding
liabilities of Minnesota Arena Football were written off (see Note 13).
Investment in common stock of WBPI:
The Company had a 30 percent investment in Willy Bietak Productions,
Inc. (WBPI), which produced touring ice shows and theme shows
appearing in shopping malls, theaters, casinos, arenas, and major
amusement parks throughout the United States. During the year ended
September 30, 1999, WBPI was transferred to the majority shareholder
(see Note 12).
The Company used the equity method of accounting for its 30 percent
investment in WBPI. Under this method, the Company's equity in the
earnings or losses of the investee was reported currently in the
Company's earnings. However, losses of the investee were reported only
to the extent of the carrying amount of the investment plus any
Company advances or commitments.
Principals of consolidation:
The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the
accounts of the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary, the Pike. All
significant intercompany transactions and balances have been
eliminated in consolidation.
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
Use of estimates:
Management uses estimates and assumptions in preparing financial
statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America. Those estimates and assumptions
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported revenue and
expenses. Actual results could vary from the estimates that were used.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANICAL STATEMENTS (CONTINUED)
YEARS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2001, 2000, AND 1999
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED):
Property and equipment:
Property and equipment consists of furniture and fixtures and is
stated at the lower of depreciated cost or net realizable value. All
assets are fully depreciated at December 31, 2001 and therefore, no
depreciation expense has been recorded.
Income taxes:
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported
in the financial statements and consist of taxes currently due plus
deferred taxes recognized for accrued expenses and operating losses
that are available to offset future federal income taxes (see Note 6).
Advertising costs:
Advertising costs are charged to operations when the advertising first
takes place. Advertising expense for the periods ended September 30,
2001, 2000 and 1999 were $0, $0 and $201,346, respectively.
Earnings per share:
The Company's net income (loss) per share is computed based upon the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the year
using the treasury stock method. There are no dilative common shares
outstanding because the exercise price of outstanding stock options
exceeds the current market price of a share of the Company's common
stock. Therefore, normal earnings per share and dilutive earnings per
share are the same.
3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:
During the years ended September 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company's
chief executive officer (CEO) provided short-term advances of $14,700,
$7,419 and $2,700, respectively, to the Company. This amount was
required to be reported as additional paid-in capital in the
accompanying consolidated financial statements. During 1999 the advances
contained specific repayment provisions and when repayments occur, there
will be a reduction of additional paid-in capital.
As of September 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999, the Company owed the Company's
CEO $227,500 for cumulative accrued salary. This amount is included in
accrued expenses on the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
4. INVESTMENT IN UNCONSOLIDATED SUBSIDIARY:
During the year ended September 30, 1999, the Company's investment in
WBPI was transferred to the Company's majority shareholder as partial
repayment of the advances the majority shareholder made to the Company
(see Note 12).

interest in the Pike. The notes matured between June and December 1996.
The notes are convertible into common stock of the Company. These notes

During the year ended September 30, 2000, certain estimates and
assumptions were changed as they related to the net operating loss
carryforwards. The effect of this change was to increase the estimated
net operating loss carryforwards.
During the years ended September 30, 2001, 2000, and 1999, the Company
recorded valuation allowances of $ 1,140,000, $1,168,000 and $922,000,
respectively, on the deferred tax assets to reduce the total amounts
that management believes will ultimately be realized. Realization of
deferred tax assets is dependent upon sufficient future taxable income
during the period that deductible temporary differences and
carryforwards are expected to be available to reduce taxable income.
There was no other activity in the valuation allowance accounts.
The Company has loss carryforwards that may be offset against future
taxable income. If not used, the carryforwards will expire as follows:

8. RETIREMENT PLANS (SEE NOTE 12):
Prior to its transfer, ITC had a 401(k) incentive savings plan covering
substantially all of its non-union employees. Eligible employees could
defer up to 10% of their compensation to the plan. ITC matched 25% of
the employees' contribution up to 6% of the employees' compensation.
ITC also contributed to a retirement plan established by the union for
its employees who were represented by a collective bargaining unit. The
required contribution was 8% of gross wages.
9. SUPPLEMENTAL DISCLOSURE OF CASH FLOW INFORMATION:
Non-cash transactions:
During the year ended September 30, 2001, the charter of the Pike was
dissolved. This resulted in a non-cash forgiveness of debt for the
Company of $302,179. Accounts payable was reduced by $279,241, and
accrued expenses were reduced by $22,938.
During the year ended September 30, 1999, the Company's interest in
ITC and WBPI was transferred to the Company's CEO as repayment of
advances the CEO made to the Company (see Note 12). This resulted in a
non-cash forgiveness of debt of $452,719 for the Company, $1,086,703
for ITC, and $627,835 for the Pike.
10. CORPORATE LIQUIDITY (SEE NOTE 12):
During the fiscal year ended September 30, 1999, the Company incurred
substantial losses of $342,711, and had working capital deficits as of
September 30, 2001, 2000 and 1999 of $1,032,516, $980,147, and
$1,224,096, respectively. Due to these losses, the Company has no
liquidity and available cash resources to finance further operations.
During the fiscal year ended September 30, 1998, the Company's CEO made
cash advances to the Company in order to meet cash flow needs. These
advances were secured by the Company's shares of stock in ITC. On
December 17, 1998, the Company's management, with approval by the Board
of Directors, transferred the assets and operations of ITC and the
Company's investment in WBPI to the CEO as partial repayment of the
advances made to the Company. This left the Company without any on-going
operating business or operating assets.
The Company's operations exclusive of its subsidiaries consist of
acquisition searches and certain administrative costs, both of which
could be scaled back and/or financed by the Company's CEO and major
stockholder. Management intends to continue to explore options to
purchase a company that will have sufficient cash flow to support
operations.

transfer the Company's interest in ITC and WBPI to the Company's CEO as
repayment of $100,000 in advances the Company's CEO made to the Company
(see Note 3). In setting the $100,000 amount, the Board of Directors

segments: ITC and Pike (see Note 12). The Company's reportable segments
were strategic business units that offer different products and
