What is "the UK"? Did you see the latest picture of Earth from NASA?

Here's the old one.

Here's the new one.

At least they took the picture of the FRONT of the Earth this time!

and if you look really carefully you can see my house... [Big Grin]

I'm sure it's not the case, but didn't Sarah Palin say that she could see the Earth from her porch?

I'm so sorry. All right doctor... I'll come quietly...

Actually it was Tina Fey who said the original thing that's led to all those related Sarah Palin jokes.

Not much good the site is. Biased, too much information taken word-for-word from other better sites, couldn't even find a real strip of IMAX film for its comparison to 35mm picture, and the strangest spelling of "opposed" I have ever seen ("a-pose").

I know we are getting it on 35mm but it's not clear if it will be 2d or Tech 3d?

The twin projector IMAX 1570 systems , such as our SRs,can run 158 minute of 3D . You can't do changeovers on 3D .
In many local cinemas around here we have a magical, old fashioned solution to this: intermission!

I guess, many people will love you, if you give them a short break halfway around the movie. Most real IMAX theatres were never designed for people hanging around almost three hours anyway [Wink] .

Forget seeing it in 3D Imax, Jump on a Plane to Belfast (where it all began) and see the DVD "Big Screen" Screening on a Barge! [Eek!]

IMAX Sydney will be playing it in 15/70 and will be having an intermission. I wonder where it goes?

Ugh. There's still an original 5/70 print in Australia that we show from time to time but of course it's on embargo now.

Fox (TITANIC's distributor down under) have at least assured us that they won't junk the print, and their word is worth slightly more than Paramount's...

That website is so bad, its almost good. Glad I could add to the traffic for Pablo. Think he had 22 visits now.

Looking like we will be doing the same as Sydney. Good thing we have two QTRU's, one for each eye. Plenty of room for both parts of each eye. Can't wait to see who will be the first person to thread up Part 1 of Left Eye and Part 2 of Right Eye. Should be fun times.

The intermission could probably go right about where tape 1 of the VHS version ended.
