The above limited-edition image will be given away at specific IMAX theaters for the midnight showing of the film. The print is done by Oscar-winning production designer Robert Stromberg and will look pretty swell in your home as you dream of going over the rainbow.

Yeah, my theater doesn’t seem to even list a midnight show yet, but has a 9:40 show Thursday. Which would get out SOOO close to midnight I don’t think they’re doing one at 12:01.
My movie theater is listed but I was planning on going to the 9pm show that they have before the midnight show. Any idea if they’ll have these at both?
