Thanks for the article. I think IMAX is the wrong way to go for most shows, especially things like Survivor
IMAX benefits from content churn. They get paid from renting IMAX cameras out, processing the film, and doing conversions. They'll make more money with multiple small events, compared to having one or two big movies a month. Exhibitors suffer as a result.
We should be using standard screens for most TV and special events. Exhibitors would probably much prefer that (especially during the week), TV studios would save money, audiences would have more choices, movies filmed in IMAX would get more IMAX showings, but IMAX wouldn't be happy.
