IMAX Clones Is Bigger But Shorter Posted By Britany on September 16, 2002
The Jordan's IMAX Theater is reporting that AOTC will be cut by 23 minutes to conform to most IMAX systems:
The IMAX edition, which will be distributed by Twentieth Century Fox "exclusively to IMAX theaters," will be trimmed from its original 143 minutes to fit the 120-minute capability of most IMAX platter systems. A LucasFilm spokesperson told LFX that the editing will "maintain the integrity" of the story.
Thanks to Ross for the alert.
