Apparently, $633,952,680 just wasn't enough money for the Transformers Movie to make prior to the DVD release later this fall. SuperheroHype.com is reporting that the Transformers Movie will debut at the giant IMAX theatres around the country 5 weeks from today on Friday, September 21st.

Yay, the closest Imax is still 3 hours away...

I wonder what they'll cut from the film, usually when the bring a movie to Imax, they must edit it rather heavily. I remember when Attack of the Clones came to Imax, they cut a good 30 minutes out of the movie...

Closest IMAX to College station is at Paramount which is near St. John and Adelaide. You'd be better off getting off at Osgoode.

This is news? I saw transformers twice, and my second time was Imax at Mall of Ga. All I can say is it actually hurt my eyes when they transformed there were so many parts moving it literally hurt.

My sentiments exactly. I think the nearest one is a couple hours away in Niagara Falls.

That's because most IMAX theaters in 2002 were still using the actual IMAX film format. Those reels couldn't hold more than about 120 minutes of film, so they had to chop up longer movies to fit. Now, however, IMAX formats aren't restricted to that time format. Take Harry Potter, for example; the recent movie (Order of the Phoenix) is still on many IMAX screens. That film is *well* over two hours long, probably longer than even Transformers, not even considering trailers. I would be surprised if they had to edit *anything* out of this film.

The only thing I'm worried about is how bad the 'shaky camera' filming technique will make me nauseous on that big of a screen...
