Or 1994? Because 1992 was “bigger” than 1993 and ’94 both in number of first-run titles issued in 70mm (ten in ’92 to eight in ’93 to two in ‘94) and in number of 70mm prints struck (’92, in particular, had two titles - “Far and Away” and “Hoffa” - with print runs exceeding 100, whereas ’93 and ’94 had zero titles with a 70mm print run that large). The 70mm releases dwindled thereafter until the twenty-teens mini renaissance (and none had a huge print run until 2015’s "The Hateful Eight"). Notably, three overlapping trends contributed to the “death” of 70mm as an exhibition format: (1) digital sound, (2) stadium seating, (3) megaplex theater construction. Of all the entries in this series- 1960, 1970, 1985, 2015 - Present - this ’92 listing is the largest and offers a snapshot of the 70mm infrastructure at its peak…right before it all came crashing down. Nineteen ninety-two was the final “big year” for 70-millimeter as an exhibition format, so this particular entry in the series of reference listings focuses on the 1992 calendar year and details the known North American cinemas during that timeframe equipped to project 70mm prints.
