twilight-eclipseTeen emo smash hit Twilight will have their next sequel, “Twilight: Eclipse” released on IMAX simultaneously with the regular release on June 30th, 2010.  Unfortunately, the producers didn’t go the extra step of actually shooting the film for IMAX and will be relying on IMAX’s remastering technology:

The Twilight Saga: Eclipse will be digitally re-mastered into the unparalleled image and sound quality of “The IMAX Experience” with proprietary IMAX DMR(R) (Digital Re-mastering) technology. The crystal-clear images coupled with IMAX's customized theatre geometry and powerful digital audio create a unique environment that will make audiences feel as if they are in the movie.

No doubt the release of Twilight will create a nice infusion of cash for the IMAX theaters, but it’s disappointing that they’re simply remastering rather than shooting actual IMAX footage, like was done for the most recent Batman film.  Are you willing to pay premium IMAX prices for nothing more than what’s in the regular theater?
