I have seen IMAX films before and what I believe are "true" IMAX documentaries at this science center in Harrisburg, PA, but I'll be travelling to King of Prussia PA to see this one. It's at one of the LEGIT places that are one of the 30 in the country (world?) showing Oppenheimer in true 70mm IMAX, and man I am pumped. I have seriously not been to a movie theater since well before the pandemic, and I am honestly making this a little bit of a fun trip to the King of Prussia mall earlier in the day, maybe get a good bite to eat, watch a 3 hour movie, find somewhere to walk after sitting for three hours before I have to sit for three hours again, then drive home.

There's only liemax in my state and I ain't driving that far to see huge IMAX.

I also don't really buy that there's a significant difference anyway.

$26.14

Sounds a lot for a movie, but this is an experience, IMO. I think it's worth driving for.

Im pretty pumped for this movie because I love the subject matter. That sounds sweet and absolutely worth making an event out of.

Im not a film guy though. What is the significance of the 70mm part?

It's a single laser projector with a higher resolution.

Liemax is two digital projectors that combine their projections into a single picture.

It's shot on 70mm film. The film platters that these specific 30 theaters are getting weigh over 500 lbs. The image equivalent on the 80 foot fall screen would be 18k

I saw the Dark Knight Rises on a true IMAX screen. It was good, but IMO, its not really worth a long trip to see a movie in true IMAX. Great if you live close to one though.

I live 10 minutes from one of the few 70mm IMAX theaters. I didn't think I would need to buy my Oppenheimer tickets in advance but apparently people are taking long road trips and even *flying* from other states to see it.
