I M A X

Just curious, will you be watching the IMAX that followed Tyler during
this years TDF, when it comes out? Would it be cool for a cyclist to watch
this, or uncool?

It's cool for anybody to get loaded and watch an IMAX film.

What would be coolest would be the coolest Gods of RBR plan
an event in each continent upon the IMAX release and see it together.

We could ask Tyler to speak were it to premieire in N. America.

Cool?
Hell yeah!!

Assuming IMAX films debut on the same day, which I do not believe they
do. Are there IMAX theatres outside the US/Canada? I've never heard of
them, but of course that doesn't mean they don't exist (possibly in some
Euro standard %-)

There's an IMAX about 1 mile from work, at the San Jose Tech Museum.
I'll be keeping an eye out for this feature, which should be when, about
2004 some time?

Lastly, considering TH's injury, it does seem a little macabre to be
following an injured guy around the TdF stages. Heroic, no doubt, but
considering the sound quality of these affairs, do we get to hear his
grunts of pain and gnashing of teeth? What about the body-double, did
he have to receive some coaching on riding, not just like the lactose,
sun, food, et al, are about to drive him over the edge, but he can't get
out of the saddle, etc. ("Now ride like you're Quasimodo, yeah, like
that...")

Well we have one http://www.omniversum.nl/theater.html (dome/OMNIMAX).
Brussels has a standard IMAX theater, and most of the larger European
cities have.

There's one in London, one in Bradford, Bristol and Glasgow that I know of in
the UK.

Depends, whether the movie is about cycling or will it just have 30
seconds of tour footage in a movie about the human leg.

It would be cool to see, but its dorky to have to ask whether its cool
or not.

We have one in Denmark (http://www.tycho.dk/).

The IMAX movie from Tour de France, will be about what happend in the
brain of a team/rider under a event as Tour de France, and the premier
will be late in 2004.

I've only seen one film at an IMax (University of Chicago Science
Museum, IIRC) The Fires of Kuwait. All that was missing was the heat,
but I wonder how an IMax presentation relates to the TdF experience of a
rider. Seems more like the experience of a motorcycle camera man
(Virtual Graham Watson! Woo!) Still should be cool just for the better
view of the race than I can afford (sitting on a stool at the local pub,
competing with Soccer and Giants fans because I can't get OLN or Sat. TV
where I live :-(
