Yeah, IMAX was kind of shamed into doing kids films again when they skipped LEGO MOVIE and FROZEN (yikes) and hasn't worked so hot since

Basically MARS NEEDS MOMS was what broke their desire to do kids films for a bit.  

Also from Email: Lionsgate will distribute [MEGAL] in US and Canada on Sept 27, 2024 {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jun 17, 10:07

Lionsgate retweeted Antibody Jun 17, 10:09

At least it should go wide/get IMAX screens that aren't booked for WILD ROBOT (or one or two shows) vs a handful of theatres. {nm} notfabio Jun 17, 10:18

Interstellar getting re-released on IMAX that weekend. Antibody Jun 17, 10:21

Hmm. He does have an agreement for a one week run with IMAX for MEGAL but release date does impact that. {nm} notfabio Jun 17, 11:10

thats a pretty big **** up unless he picked the date and this is a service deal {nm} Moviesnob Jun 17, 11:16

There are a lot of IMAX screens and they could be sharing. Can't imagine Interstellar would run 24/7. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Jun 17, 11:39

Theaters build their own schedule and Lionsgate has zero leverage here with the reviews and negative PR {nm} Moviesnob Jun 17, 12:25

Figure majority of screens will go Wild Robot, with splits of Intersteller/Megal if nothing moves. BUT....... notfabio Jun 17, 13:38

Nolan is getting all the 70MM IMAX Antibody Jun 17, 13:47

Kids/Family fare isnt a big draw for IMAX so I would imagine the splits will be INSTERSTELLAR and WILD ROBOT with INTERSTELLAR getting the Moviesnob Jun 17, 14:05

I dont know where they fit MEGALOPOLIS in if there are already running a split schedule {nm} Moviesnob Jun 17, 15:42
