From Fox Malaysia: This movie is rated P13 and has been passed clean with NO cuts.

Not a marketing factor A few reasons. This is the first wide release movie this year that opened with another wide release movie Madagascar at the same time. As such, screens are limited as cinemas had to accommodate both. Prior to this, all other big movies opened on their own eg Avengers, MIB3, Wrath, Journey2 etc so every cinema can play them. Both Prometheus and Madagascar has 3D thus again cinemas had to choose between the two. There are only about 130 x 3D screens in Malaysia at the moment and these has to be shared between Prometheus, Madagascar, Avengers and MIB3. Due to this congestion, cinemas had to decide on 3D only or 35mm only or both(if they have enough screens). As for digital 2D it's even worse as most of the 130 digital screens are used to show 3D.

The reason Madagascar has more show times is because Prometheus is a 2hr plus movie. Madagascar is a 1.5 hours movie. Thus per screen basis, the cinema can squeeze in more shows for a shorter film per day. For eg, if you noticed for Titanic which is a 3 hr film, per screen can only play 3-4 show a day.

As for IMAX, there is only 1 in Malaysia at the moment and the cinema chose to play Prometheus.

By end of the year, Malaysia would have tripled the number of digital screens so you can definitely get to see more movies in digital 2D or 3D. It's forecasted that by end of next year Malaysia will be nearing 100% digital screens.

As for IMAX, the 2nd one is targeting to open with The Dark Knight Rises. The 3rd one hopefully by year end or next CNY.
