Nope... my small city of Ottawa has it playing at our only IMAX theatre.

Our IMAX in Memphis never has any of the new movies like Dark Knight or now Star Trek. Only educational movies and documentaries.

The IMAX in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania doesn't have it either and it is literally right across the street from my office downtown. The IMAX is keeping Monsters and Aliens instead. My guess is this is school field trip season to the state capitol and a lot of schools take the kids to an Imax movie after touring the Capitol.

I'm debating driving to Baltimore, but not sure.

I live a few miles away from the only IMAX in Wisconsin that's showing it.

Most of those IMAX's in the science centers and museums would never show feature films like that.

Theres about 3 places all within 40 miles of me showing it.

Since it's only a 2 week run, they're only getting prints to the highest volume areas

It's just a blowup, you're not missing anything

Like what they did with the Matrix sequels? Those looked pretty damn nice.

I have my tix already as I printed/ordered them 2 weeks ago (last row, dead center---perfect viewing for IMAX flix). And I heard it is just at IMAX theaters for 2 weeks, but I'd rather see any big event Action movie like this in an IMAX theatre than a regular one!

(Terminator: Salvation, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, AVATAR, Night At the Museum/sequel - are all listed for 2009 IMAX releases)

Lucky! The IMAX theater we are going to doesn't do assigned seating.

yea, that stinks for you guys. the one here, with the assigned seating, is a Major plus. especially when you get there and someone's in ur seat. you show them your ticket printout, and they have to move.

I got a screening of this movie this past Saturday afternoon in a regular theatre and it was awesome. Movie was great and the effects were spectacular. I am planning on seeing it again on IMAX!!!!!! The movie is so worth the 100 mile drive.
