It might not be the perfect movie, but I'm not going to pass up the chance to see what might as well be the last feature length 70mm IMAX movie. I'm going tonight, hour drive to get to 1 of the two 70mm IMAX theaters that show it in Ontario.

Ya, definitely recommended. I thought all screens would be 70mm but than again i don't fully understand the tech behind that. Saw it in IMAX at Colossus Vaughan. I see now that only two theatres are the ones with 70mm, Scotiabank (Downtown) and Coliseum at Square One. 

Enjoy!

I'm going to Coliseum at Square one in tonight. Most IMAX theaters are digital now, either dual 2K projectors or recently upgraded to 4K, however those are not the norm yet. A pristine 70mm print is closer to 8K. Nolan insisted on filming on that because of it's still unrivaled quality. The list of feature length 70mm films isn't very long, and Interstellar is only the 2nd sci-fi movie next to 2001.

The tech behind it:



A great chance to view both the past and future of cinema visual quality. And something I definitely can't reproduce in my home theater :)
