 PROFILE
Forget Mothra, Godzilla, and King Kong: Imax gives a new meaning to the term "monster vision." The company makes and leases projection and sound systems for more than 220 giant-screen IMAX theaters in 28 countries. The theaters (owned by museums, science centers, and commercial operators) are licensed to use the Imax name; operators pay maintenance and royalty fees to Imax. Formats include IMAX Dome and IMAX 3D, and the screens reach heights of up to 80 feet. Imax also produces special format films such as "Fires of Kuwait" and "T-REX: Back to the Cretaceous" that are shown on its projection systems. Merchant banker Wasserstein & Co. owns about 30% of the company.
