Thanks for the info on this, Luke! :)

You know, I don't know whether it just never came to the MN Zoo IMAX theatre, or I just spaced out completely while it was here, but I don't remember Sacred Planet released theatrically. Despite the lack of a giant screen (;)), I'd still like to check this out, since most IMAX docs are worth it...

I've virtually ignored 'Sacred Planet' until now but reading that, well it really sounds interesting but that is just based on their press release. I'll have to see the review. :)

edit: Sadly there is no review. :P

Having never been to any of the places they showed in the film, I don't know. But I'll take their <strike>word</strike> images for it.

I haven't been many places... only three different countries (Canada, USA, England) but theworld sure is pretty darn cool. I would recommend everyone travel! There's no real reason to be afraid to travel if you know where youa re going. :)
