redfirebird2008 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 It's digital now, but it looks like it might've been a true IMAX screen, albeit a smaller one. Manufacturer: IMAX Format: D Film Type: 3D Screen: Flat Screen Size (HxW): 43.6 x 68.9 feet / 13.3 x 21 meters That's around a 1.58:1 aspect ratio. 15/70 presentations must've been pillarboxed slightly. Where did you find that information? Can you look for the same information on the Regal Tall City 14 digital IMAX in Midland, TX? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dementeleus Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 It's from LF Examiner. Unfortunately, red, they haven't updated in awhile and Tall City must be too recent: it's listed, but not the screen dimensions. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a cool site but I'm pretty sure none of the theaters I go to are on here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 So only 2 movies in the next 16 months are actually being shot using IMAX cameras - Star Wars 7 and Batman v Superman. I think IMAX will definitely be giving these movies preferential treatment and a longer 5-6 week run in IMAX screens. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And both will be converted to 3D, which takes a big shit on the original IMAX photography. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grim22 Posted November 14, 2014 Share Posted November 14, 2014 Wonder which movie among Seventh Son and Jupiter Ascending will get IMAX for their release. Both movies had IMAX releases planned when they were distributed by WB, but now both release on the same day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw MI4, STID, and TDKR there, and the filmed in IMAX scenes looked legit Pillarboxing is the reverse of letterboxing: it's more of a home-video term, I guess the theatrical equivalent would be masking the edges of the screen. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's weird. I've never noticed that my IMAX (I have noticed that shot in IMAX films do leave a slight bit of screen at the bottom of the screen though) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blankments Posted December 6, 2014 Share Posted December 6, 2014 Actually, when I saw Interstellar in IMAX, I was pissed off. It was still fine aspect ratio wise, but they letterboxed it. Even the IMAX shot scenes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
