| Posted: | | | | FYI: The films on screen title is "Nascar: The Imax Experience". The current profile has "Nascar: The IMAX Experience" as the title of the DVD. Shouldn't it be? Title "Imax: Nascar" Original Title "Nascar: The Imax Experience" And should Imax be "Imax" or "IMAX"? |

| Posted: | | | | If "The IMAX Experience" doesn't appear on the cover, then yes it belongs in the Original Title field. I've always seen "IMAX" shown in full capitals (IMAX Corporation). A Google search seems to show that's almost always the case. It seems like the correct Title according to the front cover would either be "IMAX: Nascar" or "Nascar: IMAX". Does it show how the title appears on the spine or a back cover credit block? Then again, NASCAR (National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing) is often shown in full capitals also... | | | Corey |

| Posted: | | | | The Spine is the same as the front cover.
The back cover's credit block has "NASCAR: THE IMAX EXPERIENCE".
So it looks like it would be: Title "IMAX: NASCAR Original Title "NASCAR; The IMAX Experience"
Correct? |

Correct? Yep, that sounds correct to me. | | | Corey |

Yep, that sounds correct to me. That's how I would do it too...except that should be a colon in the original title, not a semi-colon. | | | My phpDVDprofiler collection |

Had the same thought. But just checked and have seen I got one IMAX DVD in my local. It's called IMAX: DeepSea. Hmm, I think the thought of this is, it is a kind of series. So Nascar, Deep Sea, ... would be the descriper of the "part" |

| Posted: | | | | Except bunch of different studios release IMAX titles and they title them slightly differently. IMAX is a movie format, not a series format. For my personal sort title, I title all of them IMAX: Title name, but that doesn't work for lot of them. For example
The Living Sea Coral Reef Adventure
have a header "Originally Created for Exhibition in IMAX Theatres" but does not have IMAX in their titles. | | | My Home Theater |

This would be my guess as well | | | It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up! But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

| Posted: | | | | There appear to be 229 profiles in the database that have IMAX: "Title here"
I kind of doubt it's the edition... | | | Corey |
