Lionsgate's "The Hunger Games" has become an (as expected) monster hit, so it's no surprise that the studio is returning the film to IMAX theaters for another limited run on the giant screen. The film received a similarly limited IMAX run in its first week, racking up $13.2 million in ticket sales just from IMAX theaters alone (the film has currently grossed $533 million worldwide)

The film will return to IMAX screens on April 27, with the run completing on May 3. The film will play in over 100 IMAX theaters across North America, and will likely continue to pull in the dough for the film. Though not shot on IMAX cameras, the film has been digitally re-mastered to have IMAX quality image and sound. And, well, it's big!

It looks as if Lionsgate and IMAX are going for repeat customers when it comes to these IMAX viewings, releasing a new poster today that clearly says "EXPERIENCE IT AGAIN" and remarking on bringing back in fans of the film for more. Lionsgate’s Motion Picture Group Co-Chair Rob Friedman said, “It’s wonderful that so many fans have expressed interest in seeing The Hunger Games in the immersive IMAX format, and many of these are repeat viewers...We're delighted that IMAX has been able to accommodate them through this special one week re-engagement.”

Are you a fan of the film? Did you see it in IMAX? Will you see it in IMAX now?

沪江娱乐快讯：虽然本周单周的全球票房“大船”《泰坦尼克号》汹涌夺冠，不过狮门影业的《饥饿游戏》依旧坚挺地处在第3名的位置，赚尽了眼球。来到第四个周末，《饥饿游戏》的累计票房依旧是全球第一，达到了5.3亿美元(准确数字为$530,666,363)。这是在《阿凡达》和《蝙蝠侠前传2：黑暗骑士》之后，首部拥有此等成绩的影片。

对于这样的好成绩，狮门决定，将这部由加里·罗斯小说改编的影片进行IMAX重映：从北美时间4月27日起，《饥饿游戏》将进行为期一周IMAX版本限定放映。除了时间，这次参与重映的IMAX影院也是经过筛选的，全美只有100家IMAX影院参与。狮门还发布了一幅特别版海报，来宣传此次活动。

最初，《饥饿游戏》并未确定上映IMAX版，不过在距离上映还有50天时，狮门突然宣布，影片将在3月23日影片公映时起，于IMAX影院同步上映一周，虽然影片并不是以IMAX的方式拍摄，但却经过数字转制成巨幕格式。IMAX重映这样的限定活动，自2007年的《变形金刚》开始，在《阿凡达》、《盗梦空间》、《黑暗骑士》、《变形金刚3》等火爆影片身上都发生过。不过《饥饿游戏》却是首部获得重映的青少年题材影片。狮门也凭借它的好成绩，重回公众视野，好莱坞影业公司的势力格局将重新洗牌。

如此猛烈的效应使得《饥饿游戏》成为今年十分值得关注的现象级影片，火爆程度直追《暮色》系列。其续集《火星燎原》已经在物色导演，计划在今年8月开拍，詹妮弗·劳伦斯将继续领衔主演。《饥饿游戏》也有望引进中国内地。
