Now there's rumors of a commercial theater getting an IMAX screen, but chances are it won't be as big, and it won't be playing conservation oriented films.

You know you want to see Keith Richards' nostril in high definition the size of a sewer grate.

(video bonus: The sea lion in this movie is Guthrie. You can also see Marine Mammal Trainer Jenny Montague for a split second in there)
