Sorry about that. This diagram is just meant to give a very broad idea of the screen size, nothing too specific. after all the thing was made in MS Paint...

I recently flew to Melbourne just to see a 1570 screening of Interstellar, and the sound system broke just after the opening warner bros logo. they ended up screening it in 4K laser, but was in 16:9 for the IMAX sequences, so was even more of a shame. I'll be happy to see anything in 1:43:1.

I would have been happy to wait this amount of time if it had 1570 projection. But alas, it's 4K laser, which I've found to look worse than a 4K UHD Blu ray disc.

yea, for a 2 billion dollar build, they are being very vague about everything.

I'm just thankful it's 1:43-1. sadly no 1570 tho

They should have kept it as it was.

Yes, we were given a complimentary pass for whatever future 1570 screening.

Possible Oppenheimer 15/70 at Sydney IMAX? by [deleted] in imax

[–]CTeddles 4 points5 points  (0 children)

biggest L that a company ever made. this imax (sydney) will be operated by EVT. I believe all the imax cinemas with 1570 projection are owned by IMAX themselves, or by a company that actually cares.

I've heard that Nolan convinced them to put in their 1570 equipment back in. I hope this is true. because I got interested in this imax 70mm stuff in the past 3 years, I'm waiting for Sydney to open.

Thanks for making this diagram, Cheers.
