  • IMAX CEO to FoxBiz-Davos: "Rumors of a Disney Takeover Aside, I Want IMAX to Remain Independent."

    Published January 27, 2011

    December 31st the stock of IMAX began soaring. Rumors floating in from overseas that Disney or even Sony might acquire the 3-D screen movie theatre company suddenly ran rampant. IMAX ceo Rich Gelfond showed up at our Davos broadcast center to dispel that rumor. Perhaps just as interesting, I asked him about 'the next Avatar.' Will it be "Mission Impossible?" "Tin-Tin," a Steven Spielberg 3-D extravaganza?" "Super 8"? See if you can tell from this interview below. No 3-D glasses required! [fbvideo 4511993]

    Published January 18, 2011

    Please don't act shocked. This is the 33rd quarter IN A ROW where Apple has beat estimates/guidance. It's the company's modus operandi: under-promise, then over-deliver.
