Although the print has timecode, I know of at least two different theatres that didn't get DTS disks with their prints of "The Good Thief"; one of them opened this title today and the other opened it a week ago. One of them is not equipped for DTS, anyway.

So is the lack of disks at both theatres just a coincidence, or did they just decide not to manufacture any disks (for whatever reason)?

This is not a big deal (both theatres are running it in SRD and the film doesn't really benefit much from digital sound, anyway), but I'm curious.

I don't know, but Regal Natomas (where I used to work) ran their sneak preview showing on Tuesday with the masking open for scope during the entire show! [Razz]
