Batman 3 and Superman Part of WB/IMAX Deal

Posted on Wednesday, April 28th, 2010 at 1:13 pm by TeddyBlass

Warner Bros. and IMAXWarner Bros. Pictures recently signed a partnership deal with IMAX Corporation to release 20 films over the next 4 years. The two companies have had many successful collaborations in the past, with both IMAX Experience and IMAX 3D Experience films making big bucks at the box-office.

“Our track record with IMAX has been incredible, and incorporating 3D into this collaborative effort will serve as the ultimate experience for our audiences,” said Dan Fellman, President, Domestic Distribution, Warner Bros. Pictures. “We are extraordinarily proud of our forthcoming slate and eager to offer these films to audiences in the most premium of movie-going experiences.”

Mentioned among the 20 films are the next Superman and (the first official acknowledgment of) Batman 3. Since the deal is for films planned for release before the end of 2013, it’s probably pretty safe to assume we can expect to see both of the superheros on the silver screen before then. You can check out the full details of the deal at GlobalNewsWire.

A ShoWest Roundtable Interview w/ Christopher Nolan

Posted on Friday, March 26th, 2010 at 1:09 pm by TeddyBlass

Chris Nolan on Insomnia SetOur friends over at Collider got to participate in a round-table interview with Christopher Nolan this past weekend at ShoWest. On the table for discussion was Inception, shooting in IMAX, the recent 3D boom, and much more. Most interesting of all was when Chris talked about shooting select scenes on Inception with 65mm and even VistaVision as a substitute for shooting IMAX.

We shot key sequences on 65mm and we shot VistaVision on certain other sequences. So we’ve got a negative – a set of negative – that’s of the highest possible quality except IMAX.  We didn’t feel that we were going to be able to shoot in IMAX because of the size of the cameras because this film given that it deals with a potentially surreal area, the nature of dreams and so forth, I wanted it to be as realistic as possible. Not be bound by the scale of those IMAX cameras, even though I love the format dearly. So we went to the next best thing which was 65mm. So we have the highest quality image of any film that’s being made and that allows us to reformat the film for any distribution form that we’d like to put it in. We’re definitely going to do an IMAX release. We’re excited about doing that and using our original negative 65mm photography to maximize the effect of that release.

Pretty interesting stuff, eh? Well there is a whole lot more over at Collider, so be sure to read the whole interview! Thanks to courtney in the forums for the tip!
