Imax is one of the big movie theater businesses right? They have a special craft for making 3D look half way decent I hear. Not a bad idea I think since ALL movies have to be in 3D now. -.-

The new Batman movie isn't going to be in 3D. They say they are instead opting for an all out IMAX experience.

C. Nolan filmed some sequences in the dark knight using IMAX cameras but of course not for 3d but for better resolution. They even managed to smash one.

Honestly i've seen The Dark Knight in IMAX, and the IMAX footage is incredible. imo IMAX is the future of cinema, especially with films like Avatar, so i think this is an excellent move. Sony are in the film buisness already, so i'm guessing they know about how awesome it is!
