Santa Claus is comin' to the IMAX Theatre!


Gatineau, QC — November 15, 2005 — This holiday season, the IMAX Theatre revives the Christmas magic by bringing you for the last time the animated film: Santa vs. the Snowman. The IMAX theatre delivers a bag full of laughs with a tale of unstoppable hilarity and visual magic that became the most popular, must-see holiday family fare. Combining the off-the-wall humour of Steve Oedekerk — the Academy Award®-nominated creator of Jimmy Neutron, as well as other films such as The Nutty Professor, Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls and Patch Adams — with the Academy Award®-winning IMAX technology, results in a film as funny as it is visually stunning.

Santa vs. the Snowman is unlike any other traditional large-format film. It transports kids of all ages from the theatre to Santa’s Workshop at the North Pole. Turning tradition on its head, Santa vs. the Snowman tells the heartwarming story of a lonely Snowman who finds Santa’s workshop, but is chased away when he accidentally sets off the perimeter alarm. Jealous of Santa’s popularity, he thinks up a plan to take over Santa’s empire, in order to make himself everyone’s favourite holiday figure instead. Enlisting an army of “Snow Minions”, he pits his forces against Santa’s elves and captures Santa, setting off an epic — and hilarious — polar war.

Santa vs. the Snowman captures the spirit of the season, but with a comedic twist that we know will entertain children of all ages! The film will be featured from November 15 to January 8. This is your last chance to enjoy this colorful and animated entertainment.

The IMAX Theatre also suggests an escape to the lunar surface with Magnificent Desolation: Walking on the Moon. Relive an historic and fascinating expedition with Mystery of the Nile. Also, experience the speed and heart-pumping excitement of NASCAR.

Offer your friends and family an IMAX Club membership. This advantage will allow your beloved one to see more than 10 films per year. A great gift idea that will make you remembered all year!
