Studios may have announced plans to screen at least ten feature films in digital 3-D next year, but John Fithian, president of the National Association of Theatre Owners warned Sunday that there currently aren't enough theaters capable of showing them -- and there won't be until the studios and exhibitors reach some agreement on how to pay for digital projection equipment. Speaking at the Digital Cinema Summit at the National Association of Broadcasters convention in Las Vegas, Fithian said that such an agreement must be hammered out within the next two months. Otherwise, he said, "we won't have time to do the installations in time." He added, "If the studios want this to happen in time for 2009, the deals have to be struck, and they have to be struck right now."
