According to the film’s editor—
“It was really interesting to go from cutting this almost 4×3 image to have to basically lop the top and the bottom off. They never shot at common-center for the Imax, knowing that I would go back in later and fix it.” – See more at: http://www.studiodaily.com/2013/11/editor-alan-edward-bell-on-the-hunger-games-catching-fire/#sthash.kndyAFAZ.dpuf
I thought thats what I saw when I walked up the aisle stairs. Thanks for the investigating. I remember watching the imax countdown trailer and was curious why it wasn’t full screen width.
15/70mm is also referred to as imax
70mm tall and 15 sprocket holes long
traditional 70mm widescreen is only 5 sprocket holes creating a 2.2 aspect ratio
I finally saw Hobbit here on its last night. About a 10 week run…..pretty rare in these times.Maybe 20 people. I’m pretty sure it was digital—-not an ounce of dirt anywhere.You have to be a giraffe to see what the projector is.
they updated the tag and made it 3d imax —————with reserved seats, people will be showing up later—-I guess there won’t be long lines to manage any more like there was for dark knight returns opening day
I saw Prometheus in Lie-max 3d and it didn’t fill the width of the exposed screen and no screen masking came out. So it was pillar boxed. Is that normal here?
I recall seeing scope films lie-imax-ed here that filled the screen width.
So after complaining online to AMC, the manager called and apologized. He said that the Studios dictate the number of screens and also want advance ticketing started asap. So the studio added a screening —-so the theater has to juggle the presentations. It went from one liemax, one 3d & one 2d to liemax,2 3d’s and the 2d screening only twice opening day alternating with another title (thats 3d).
I do appreciate good customer service… so thanks AMC. I just shouldn’t order advance tix too early.
Kips Bay keeps screwing people with Advance Tickets. I purchased opening night tix for thor in 3d and now they have changed the showtime (for the 730show) to 10 minutes earlier and a smaller crappy screen downstairs. This is not the first time this has happened.
For Interstellar…. but not for Hobbit 3?
I went last night for the first time to this theater. Wow!
So worth the extra subway stops.
Do all screens here have the same seats?
Can someone please confirm for me—-Is the Dolby Atmos system installed in the Loews theater?

$21.50 plus a $2.00 fandango fee if you can’t get to the theatre.

Does anyone know if Pacific Rim Imax will run here or will it stay “Kryptonian”?
Very Nice! Good Job!
Can anyone give a review of the laser projection here for GI Joe? http://bit.ly/10oIWnI
Thank you. It was a very impressive display. Another reason this theatre gets the respect it does.

I hope Star Trek Imax comes here.
Is this Imax Hobbit presentation film or digital?

So hobbit is tagged as 2D on fandango with reserved seating in theater 13 (imax?)…..

Why no Dark Knight Rises?

Anyone have any idea when Dark Knight Rises Imax
general tickets go on sale?

I wonder if the run the bulb at max to keep the ziegfeld so bright.
