The way that you describe Disney's 'terms' for showing Pearl Harbor - is that the 'norm' for film distribution in the US? Do the studios always dictate to cinema chains when and how they show 'their' films? And isn't that restriction of trade? I mean studios and cinemas have a symbiotic relationship - I'm surprised that the cinemas would allow themselves to be dictated to in such a manner. Or am I being naive?
