Abstract

"Gloucester and Ottawa area residents are going to love digital theatre," said Pat Marshall, Vice President Communications and Investor Relations, Cineplex Entertainment. "With digital projection, every presentation looks as if it is being presented for first time on screen. Images are always bright, crystal clear and sharp." Marshall also said, "With the addition of REAL D, audiences will now be able to enjoy an incredibly immersive 3D experience. I love watching the audience wearing their 3D glasses and seeing people reach out to touch the images that appear to be floating in front of them and with our premiere film, audience members will feel as if they are on stage beside [Miley Cyrus]."

The hit Disney Channel series "Hannah Montana", enjoyed in Canada on Family Channel, is a global triumph, reaching over 164 million unique total viewers worldwide.
