Walt Disney's animated feature, TARZAN, will become the first-ever major
feature release to be produced, mastered, and exhibited digitally when it
opens today, Friday, July 30 at the following theaters: AMC's Pleasure
Island multiplex at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, AMC's Media
Center North 6 in Burbank, California, and the Edwards Irvine Spectrum in
Irvine, California. According to Bob Lambert, senior vice president of new
technology and new media for The Walt Disney Company, "TARZAN was the ideal
choice for these historic engagements; the film is unique in that it was
produced digitally from start to finish, and is being distributed
digitally, as well. The resulting image quality is exceptional." Check your

EPISODE 1: THE PHANTOM MENACE and AN IDEAL HUSBAND were the first major
features to be exhibited digitally, but neither were produced entirely in
digital form as was TARZAN.
