Shades of Harry Potter (do they protect against spoilers?)

Talent_with_imax_3d_glasses

Hooray! Harry Potter aviator sunglasses are here!

Oh, wait. My bad.

Turns out Emma Watson, Rupert Grint and Daniel Radcliffe are actually modeling special IMAX 3D glasses to celebrate (woo-hoo, par-tay!) the record-breaking box office opening for the IMAX version of  "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix."

The film has shattered all IMAX records; it's the largest opening in IMAX history, showing on 91 domestic and 35 international IMAX screens for a record-breaking worldwide total of $9.4 million.  It also broke IMAX's largest single-day worldwide record with $1.9 million.

You'll be handed these shades to experience the film's amazing 20-minute 3D finale. But the only way to keep the cool eyewear - which is totally nonfunctional outside of an IMAX 3D film -  is to pocket a pair as you leave the theater. Good luck with that. (Hint: Use the Cloak of Invisibility).

I can't help but wonder how the actors feel about the recent HP spoilers posted on the Web. What, you haven't read them yet? Then click here and weep. But don't say I didn't warn you.

Wow! Everybody should see the film at an Imax theatre! The special effects are even greater in 3D.
Not to mention the comfortable seating. Outstanding !
