According to the Columbus Dispatch, Marcus Theatres has stopped showing IMAX films until at least the release of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, and possibly permanently. Quite simply, they make more money from a conventional film than the IMAX films. Marcus has laid off its group sales staff. I'm not surprised. There just isn't any decent product out there right now suitable for a commercial theatre. ALL ACCESS did very poorly. I had more than a few "private showings" at this IMAX theatre. For details, go to this link (should be available until 8/21): http://www.dispatch.com/business-story.php?story=dispatch/news/bus01/aug01/800552.html Mark Lensenmayer
