Disney also announced today that Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland will also be released in IMAX 3D on March 5, 2010. Read the full press release after the jump.

Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures and IMAX Corporation today announced that Alice in Wonderland, directed by Tim Burton and starring Johnny Depp as the Mad Hatter, Anne Hathaway as the White Queen and Mia Wasikowska as Alice, will be released to IMAX® theaters simultaneously with the film’s wide release on March 5, 2010. The special IMAX® 3D release will be digitally re-mastered into the unparalleled image and sound quality of The IMAX Experience® with IMAX DMR® (Digital Re-Mastering) technology. This is the third film confirmed out of the five-film agreement between IMAX and Disney, which was announced on November 19, 2008.

Commenting on the announcement, Mark Zoradi, president, Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures Group, said, “If ever there was a film that cried out to be presented in Disney Digital 3D and the premium IMAX 3D format, Tim Burton’s fantastic interpretation of ‘Alice in Wonderland’ is that film. This is going to be an eye-popping cinematic experience as Tim takes moviegoers down the rabbit hole and into the dimensional world filled with incredible characters, sly humor, and wild adventures. Disney’s partnership with IMAX is taking shape with two amazing films already on the schedule. We look forward to working with them in bringing exciting new experiences and quality entertainment to IMAX screens around the world.”

“We think that Disney’s new ‘Alice in Wonderland’ is exactly the type of 3D story telling that will resonate with IMAX audiences,” said IMAX Co-Chairmen and Co-CEOs Richard L. Gelfond and Bradley J. Wechsler. “We believe our worldwide commercial theatre network will be approximately 50 percent larger by the time this film is released, giving more and more people a chance to experience the magic of Disney in IMAX.”

“‘Alice in Wonderland’ is a fantastic addition to our 2010 film slate,” added Greg Foster, Chairman and President of IMAX Filmed Entertainment. “Combining a beloved Disney classic re-designed through the imagination of Tim Burton’s creative vision with these incredibly outrageous characters and world class actors certainly makes for an event-status film, and we’re pleased to add another level of excitement to this highly-anticipated movie.”

Visionary filmmaker Tim Burton will put his distinctive touch on the combination live-action and performance capture version of Lewis Carroll’s classic tale “Alice in Wonderland.” The all-star cast includes Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway, Helena Bonham Carter, Crispin Glover, Alan Rickman and Mia Wasikowska as Alice.

Not sure how many liked Sweeney Todd, but I loved it, for being a musical. When Burton does his movies the right way they are usually pretty good.

Tim Burton is bar-none the most overrated Director of all time.

And I thought I was the only one who thought this.

He tried to branch out with The Demon Barber but ehh.

Maybe I'm a film snob but I would like to see him tackle some new ground. Do a movie about 1920's artist who migrated from Europe or on Curt Flood being the first Free Agent in baseball or Sputnik or the stories behind The Beverly Hill Hotel.

Just branch a little Tim come on..

      Deep Ball in Cyclical Decline

      AI Analysis on ideal round to draft certain positions.

      By strato · Posted

      Too much to ask picking in the middle of the third round. Unless you are historically lucky. Hell you need luck in the 1st to get that.    The devaluation of the position is hard for me to understand when I look at the difference great MLBs have made to defenses over the years.  Defense needs a good QB too. MLB is the QB of the defense.

      Deep Ball in Cyclical Decline

      By NAS · Posted

      Across the league.  5 straight years of decline. Deep pass attempts have fallen to just 7.7 per game in 2024, down from that 2019 peak. Air yards per attempt are at 7.7 yards this year—the lowest in over a decade. Overall passing yards per game have tanked too, from 496 in 2020’s early weeks to a  403 in 2024.    This trend is a result of defenses playing with two-high safety schemes designed to prevent deep passes, forcing offenses to seek yards after the catch on shorter throws.  Two-high safety calls are everywhere now—up from 44% of dropbacks in 2019 to 63% in 2024—forcing QBs to take shorter throws instead of risking picks on bombs. Add in more presnap disguises, faster pass rushes (QB pressure up to 30.1% of dropbacks), and lighter, quicker D-linemen, and it’s a nightmare for deep shots.    Offenses have adapted with emphasizing power run games to counter deep coverage and fast but leaner pass rushers.  Rushing attempts per game are up to 27.9 per game average with top teams significantly in the 30+ attempts.  QBs are emphasizing more short and intermediate throws so that the few deep passes they attempt have a higher completion percentage overall than in years past.    So to everyone who is frustrated with lack of deep passing, it’s all cyclical and right now emphasis on the run and taking more calculated shots is the way to go.
