D-cinema Deadlock

At least 10 3-D digital features are planned for 2009, but the clock is ticking ominously when it comes to the deployment of digital theater installations.

DWA's Monsters vs. Aliens is slated for release March 27. But with that date less than a year away, out of an estimated 39,000 screens in North America, there are now just 5,000 d-cinema screens -- including a little more than 1,000 with 3-D capabilities.
