Rdog Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 I just saw LOTR3 on the IMAX and all I can say is wow!!!!! For all of you sub lovers, IMAX knows how to play a movi in surround sound. I definitely recommend everyone seeing this movie on the IMAX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scrambler400 Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 Where did you see it on the IMAX? I had seen both latter matrix movies ont he IMAX and was AMAZED. However I was under the impression that IMAX can only be a certain length of time, like under 3 hours or something. Do you know if this is a false statement or if they made certian cuts on the LOTR movie? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand11 Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 Flase claim. I saw all three movies in IMax. Keep in mind that these are not IMax films; they are not using the I-Max screen ratio nor optimized for it's sound setup (which is unique ot those lines of theaters), it's merely the standard movie being played on a really, REALLY big screen, usually the best speakers in the theater. I've been watching big movies in I-Max for years now (The owner ofthe Irvine Spectrum constantly shows movies on the IMAX if it's popular enough), but it must just be recently catching on. I say this because RotK was the first time the movie started with a disclaimer saying "this is not an IMAX film". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rdog Posted January 15, 2004 Author Share Posted January 15, 2004 Sorry for the misunderstanding, I meant that it was the same screen ratio, that is really not what impressed me about the movie. It was the audio that blew me away, I saw the movie in a normal stadium seating theater and the IMAX blew this one away in sound. The scenes where there is the beating when looking at the ring, almost made my heart skip a beat. Once again sorry for the confusion.

m00n Posted January 15, 2004 Share Posted January 15, 2004 I would love to see one in IMAX, but I don't want to come home to my meager little setup and cry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
