According to imdb.com..."Twentieth Century Fox and Toronto-based IMAX are teaming up to present a giant-screen version of Star Wars: Episode 2 -- Attack of the Clones at more than 70 Imax theaters beginning Nov. 1. The reformatting will employ a new frame-by-frame conversion process developed by Imax called DMR, the same technology that was recently used to make an Imax transfer of Apollo 13, which opens on Sept. 20 in 22 of the giant-screen theaters. Disney has developed its own proprietary technology for converting films to Imax that it used for Fantasia 2000 and will be using again for an Imax version of The Lion King and its upcoming Treasure Planet later this year.

It offers the opportunity to mute the sound so you wouldnt have to listen to the insipid dialog or hear the monotonous delivery of the lines. Then you could just focus on the visuals.I suspect this would give a small sense of what it's like to be in George Lucas's head.

What's on the screen, I can deal with.It's the crap that goes on around you, with the moron's jamming their knees into the back of your seat, the stupid talk...."What's that ? Why is he doing that ?" etc....the cell phones, the babies crying!
This movie had it's moments, the scenes involving the clone army on the water planet stands out, but it was certainly one of the worst acted films with some of the worst dialogue in recent memory. It was PAINFUL to watch at times, and some of the action was pretty sub par as well. I guess it sold toys, and will sell DVD's.
The story behind this subject title, is that, apparently, Lucasfilm "leaked" only disc one of the set, even though they maintain that it was stolen.As long as it comes out..who cares how it got into the hands of the reviewers !
I can't help but be reminded of Sony's made-up newspaper reviewer.Tom §.
Here's the story from digitalbits.com....."Finally today, we're getting reports that there are now pirated bootleg discs in circulation, mastered directly from Disc One of the official Attack of the Clones DVD, which was apparently stolen from the replication plant. A number of readers have reported seeing these available both online and in person in parts of Asia. Here's what one had to say:
"I don't know how secure the plants Lucasfilm uses to make the discs but over here in Kuala Lumpur, the pirated first disc is already selling. From the looks of it, it seems that they copied it from the original disc. How'd they get that original disc, I have no idea. But it's out and it's being replicated by the thousands. I only saw it being played by the vendor... and they were very cautious over people who asks too many questions. These kinds of leaks have happened before on various titles - Blade II, Session 9, Lord of the Rings and perhaps the other bigger blockbusters. It just sounds like the pressing plants have a habit of missing discs."
And here's another report:
"The original disc is a DVD-9, but the "pirated" disc doing its rounds on the net is a DVD-5 (as are the DVD-R discs used in PC DVD-R/RW drives). Therefore, the pirates have downsampled, or better yet, re-encoded the MPEG-2 data to fit the movie on a DVD-5. Because of that, one should expect some degradation of the picture quality compared to the official release... the pirated DVD has the original Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround EX soundtrack as well as the commentary track. All other audio tracks have been removed. DVD credits featuring some outtakes are present, but other possible extras have been removed.""
What a Mess !!!
