Last week, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures (Pixar's parent group within The Walt Disney Company) and IMAX publicized a new five-picture deal to bring Disney films to the giant-screen format in 3-D starting in 2009. The arrangement, Disney's first with IMAX in a several years, came about as a result of IMAX's adoption of digital 3-D technology (IMAX Digital 3D).The deal is expected to cover mostly 3-D live-action films but, according to an IMAX spokesperson I talked with yesterday, it will basically be up to Disney to decide what movies would be released in IMAX.
This, at least in my mind, raises ever so slightly the wonderful possibility of one of Pixar's future projects being presented in IMAX alongside a traditional and regular digital 3-D release. Ever so slightly because as recently as this past September, Pixar general manager Jim Morris said that Pixar is not "talking about an IMAX release at this point in time".

A pixar film wouldn't work in IMAX, it's too overwhelming. The only film I've seen that's worked in IMAX was 300, because it was all about the visuals, story came second haha.
But then again, I'm from sydney and the only IMAX i've been to is our supposedly "world's largest screen", so it may be totally different elsewhere.
hello!!
