Monster House
Australian movie audiences will have the chance to experience Steven Spielberg's US blockbuster MONSTER HOUSE in the revolutionary Real D digital 3D format on the same day as it's 2D release on September 14, 2006.

In a progressive move, Australian exhibitors are embracing digital 3D by rolling out additional Real D screens in time for the release of MONSTER HOUSE. "We are delighted that Australian cinemas are taking such a pioneering position in the roll-out of Digital 3D, and enabling us to present MONSTER HOUSE to audiences in such an immersive and entertaining format. It's an amazing cinematic experience!" Ross Entwistle, Managing Director of Sony Pictures Releasing.

MONSTER HOUSE can be seen in digital 3D at the following cinema locations from September 14th: Greater Union Castle Hill Megaplex, Campbelltown, George St, Innaloo Megaplex, Marion Megaplex and Birch Carroll and Coyle Chermside Megaplex and Indooroopilly Megaplex and Village Jam Factory, Knox, Southland and Sunshine Megaplex.

The systems are provided by Kodak and will include the latest Kodak JMN3000 CineServers, driven by the company's unique software and Barco projectors, equipped with the REAL D Cinema solution.

About Monster House
In Sony Pictures comedy thrill-ride Monster House, three kids cross over to the other side of the street to unlock a mystery and experience the greatest adventure of their lives. DJ the kid across the street, has the plan. Jenny the newcomer, has the brains. And Chowder, DJ's best friend, doesn't have a clue! Monster House is an utterly unique and cleverly conceived animated feature from visionary executive producers Robert Zemeckis and Steven Spielberg that brings together a stellar cast of actors including Steve Buscemi (Monsters, Inc.), Nick Cannon (Drumline), Maggie Gyllenhaal (Secretary), Kevin James (The King of Queens), Jason Lee (The Incredibles), Catherine O'Hara (The Nightmare Before Christmas), Jon Heder (Napoleon Dynamite), Kathleen Turner (Who Framed Roger Rabbit) and Fred Willard (Waiting for Guffman). Directed by Gil Kenan.

About Kodak and Real D
Kodak in conjunction with Real D, delivers digital 3D cinema to Monster House audiences. Unlike previous 3D technology, which worked with two projectors side-by-side, the REAL D digital 3D system uses a single projector only that launches left eye and right eye frames in sequence. A unique Z-screen? modulator, developed by REAL D, is placed in front of the high frame-rate projector. This Z-screen? alternates polarisation from left to right in sequence with the projector. The projected image works in tandem with a special high-gain silver screen, which increases image brightness and maintains the polarisation. This technology enables the audience to enjoy the 3D experience simply by wearing very light-weight polarised glasses.
