Advance Press Screening for New IMAX Theatre Film "Air Racers 3D" in Los Angeles on April 3, 2012

LOS ANGELES, PARIS and LONDON, March 27, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- 3D Entertainment Distribution announced today that it will be hosting on April 3rd at 9:30 am a special press screening of its new IMAX 3D theatre film Air Racers 3D narrated by Paul Walker at the Rave Motion Pictures IMAX Theatre in the Promenade at Howard Hughes Center in Los Angeles. This press screening is for press only (with one guest if desired) and comes in advance of the twelve-month roll-out of Air Racers 3D  in the US beginning on April 5th.

Air Racers 3D, narrated by Paul Walker (The Fast and the Furious franchise, Takers), is the first-ever IMAX 3D theatre film devoted to the fastest race in the world: the legendary Reno National Championship Air Races. Audiences will  join today's elite pilots as they fight for position, wingtip-to-wingtip, and skim 50 feet (15 m) above the ground around an oval course at twice the speed of a NASCAR race. They will discover this ultra-competitive world through the eyes of rookie pilot Steve Hinton as he attempts to fly his P-51 Mustang fighter plane to victory in the most highly-anticipated and unpredictable race class.  With stunning aerial photography filmed entirely in 3D and unprecedented access granted to the course, Air Racers 3D takes audiences into Nevada's Valley of Speed to experience the intensity and high-speed thrills of a sports event like no other combined with spectacular air show entertainment.
