I'm going to go a bit off-topic, but I'm just so curious. Does anyone know how The Wizards of Oz's IMAX 3D re-release did in terms of box-office success? I'm asking, because I didn't find out anything about this on Google.

The Wizard of Oz IMAX re-release has made $5 million. I guess that's decent enough. It made more than the recent IMAX re-releases of Top Gun and Raiders of the Lost Ark, to make the necessary comparisons.

It did very good, considering the fact that it only had a one week theatrical release.

Raiders was a non-3D Imax release though. I'm sure had it been converted it would be up there, if not more than Oz.

I wish they could do Aladdin, just imagine the carpet ride sequence in 3D.

Ratatouille in 3D should be pretty amazing. I never saw The Incredibles (only bits and pieces), but I'm sure it would be amazing as well.
