Craig, thanks for the bump.

I saw "The Prisoner of Azkaban" at the Pacific Science Center IMAX yesterday afternoon with my wife, 9 year old daughter and 7 year old son.

Holy (*&%$!!! What a great ride! The picture quality was astounding, and the sheer size of the image and soundstage were impactful and immersive. It was truly the ultimate motion picture experience. Great and memorable.

IMAX should do more first-run features like this. I would happily drive farther and pay a premium to see selected movies in this format.

Sadly, we stayed until the end of the credits to find that Craig's fears were realized; no IMAX credit card at the end.

btw, the audience at the showing I saw had VERY few children since it was the afternoon of a school day (my kids had the day off). Still packed to the rafters.

NO, Spiff, not Catwoman! I was hoping for something worthwhile, not what is likely going to be the biggest turd of the summer. Damn you warner brothers!

At least Warners is supporting the format, though. But can't IMAX use your resources to do Spiderman 2 or something?

You guys going to do Oceans 12 for Warners?

I don't know who decides what we're going to convert and what we aren't. Though I'm sure Catwoman wasn't at the top of our list. LOL...

There'll be others.

It seems to mainly be Warner Brothers films, except Apollo 13. Warners also actively supports making DLP versions of their movies available to theaters.
