I’ve made the statement before that I think the whole 3D bit is starting to be overdone. However, I have to say that, if any movie would fit 3D well, it’d be Toy Story. Well, when Toy Story 3 opens in June, it won’t just be in regular theaters– it’ll also be opening in Imax 3D.
According to Imax CEO Richard L. Gelfond, “We have always envisioned the ‘Toy Story’ franchise as an ideal fit for The Imax Experience and we’re very happy to finally turn that vision into a reality.”
Toy Story 3 isn’t the only Imax treat moviegoers in 2010 will be able to enjoy.
Just last week, Summit Entertainment announce that Eclipse, the third film in the Twilight series, will open in Imax. Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland, Warner Bros’ Inception, and Dreamworks Animation/Paramount’s How to Train Your Dragon and Shrek Forever After will all be seeing time in Imax as well.
Aside from seeing Toy Story 3 as a perfect film for Imax, Gelfond took the other Imax releases into consideration, saying of Toy Story 3 that, “This film also fits nicely into our 2010 lineup.”
Toy Story 3 opens June 18th.
