Ocean Oasis has been released before (I bought the DVD 2 or 3 years ago), but it's worth watching in the big screen. The video was stunning, wish I'd seen it first time 'round.

'Course *I'm* no point of reference, 'cos I like ALL of the underwater IMAX flix. This one was particularly pretty, as I'm also a big fan of the desert... :)

Well I missed this the first time around then too. I hope our IMAX will plan on playing it at some point! Right now all they are showing is Superman Returns and Greece: Secrets of the Past until September.
