July 2008 is a historic month for Imax since they will begin the transition from 70mm projection camera to digital projection. They will begin the conversion with 3 AMC theatres: 2 in Virginia and 1 in Maryland.
This coming Tuesday, 2 of the theatres would start playing KungFu Panda. The bad news for the people that lives in the area is that they won't be showing The Dark Knight movie at those 3 locations. I think the fact that these are Imax's first digital theatres, Imax want to make sure everything run smooth. It seems that the movie that that will use to launch the digital network is Madagascar2 wich will be showing in 31 Imax theatres on November 2nd. This launch will soon followed by the showing of Harry Potter 6: Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.
By summer next year Imax would have double its presence in United States and also continue their expansion globally.
