Palace Cinemas Brings 3D To Central Europe

Palace Cinemas 3Digital

Central Europe will soon be able to experience 3D digital releases the way filmmakers had intended thanks to Palace Cinemas.  Tomorrow the exhibitor will announce they will be adding twelve 3D digital screens to their circuit just in time for Dreamworks Animation’s “Monsters vs. Aliens” to premiere on March 26th.

Palace, which is the largest exhibitor in the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Hungary, will install three screens in Prague, two screens in Brno, two in Bratislava and an additional five in Budapest, where the company is headquartered.  The news is a bit of a coup for Masterimage.  The Korean company’s 3D technology has been selected for 11 of the installations.  Palace, which already has one RealD system, will install an additional RealD screen at West End, one of their premiere venues in Budapest.  Recently RealD and Dolby have stolen the spotlight when it comes to making announcments about new 3D installations.

“We like Masterimage, said Palace CEO V.J. Maury of why they chose the technology.  “It’s a combination of great 3D on the screen and the right price.  And we wouldn’t add another RealD screen at West End if it were not for its excellent 3D picture.”
