Remove the %20 from the url and it should then work.

Nice to see it coming from industry leaders. I understand AMC pulled out of NATO over its position.  |  IP: Logged Ted Costas Expert Film Handler Posts: 119 From: Hollywood, CA, USA Registered: May 2000 posted 09-24-2002 02:22 PM                     Michael K. always seems to put the situation in the right perspective. Maybe that's why the number of D-Cinema screens has not grown much since May 17th, 2002. Even the Studios have "backed off" a bit on the D-Cinema push for releases. Is the slow approach the better approach? Hmmm... I guess that's all still TBD.

The Banger Sisters got a full-blown DLP opening in the New York area: AMC Empire, UA Farmingdale, Loews Jersey Gardens, Crown Marquis. In fact, the Loews Jersey Gardens is playing it only in DLP.  |  IP: Logged
