I'm long on IMAX. They have a good business model moving in to the chain theatres. They are offering the IMAX experience to more people than ever before. They need to focus on profit margins as they expand. In 3-5 years, this could be a stock that David and Tom are bragging about in all of their articles!

Building theaters at a fevered pitch. This company either saves the American Theater experience (as in physically going out to see a movie) or the theater industry fades away, losing out to on-demand or other in home options.

IMO the cpl extra bucks to see a blockbuster in imax is the only reason to go to a theater instead of watching from the comfort of your own home.

I've seen Dark Knight and Transformers in IMAX, two one of a kind experiences. If your going to see a blockbuster at a theater I dont see why you wouldnt spend the extra cpl bucks and do it right.
