The original Cinemaware went belly up in 1991.  There's an interview with the original folks here: http://www.gamasutra.com/view/news/26583/Interview_Bob_Jacob_On_The_Cinemaware_Era.php

Some guy named Lars Fuhrken-Batista bought the name and ip and had a six year run with it from 2000-2005.  

He sold it to egames.

What's interesting is that eGames.com and Cinemaware.com are using different services to hide their identity.  But can you have a "director's cut" if the "directors" (Bob and Phyllis Jacobs) are not involved?
