Disney and Warner Bros. agreed Monday to evenly split digital Imax showtimes this weekend between "Avengers" and "Dark Shadows," leaving the Marvel pic in all 275 digital-only Imax screens from which it collected a record-setting $15.3 million last weekend. Originally, "Avengers" was slated to lose 200 of those Imax locations to "Dark Shadows," as dictated by a pre-existing, three-year pact inked between Imax and Warners in April 2010.
