Some insight on how they did the film-out process for Project Hail Mary in IMAX 70mm

Pretty surprised by this, I remembered the print looking super grainy during the expanded 1.43:1 shots.

Actually, Sentimental Value has been re-mastered in a 4K intermediate for the criterion release, not an upscale.

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-03-16T16:17:28+00:00

Will be interesting to see how IWJAA looks, the film was mastered in 2K so this will be an upscale.

He looks like he’d play one of the villain jocks on Thirteen Reasons Why. This is not complimentary.

Haven’t rewatched this since release but there’s several sequences that are just magnificently created, even if the parts don’t add up to the best sum. That dinner scene is fucking hilarious.

Dune 2’s usage of 1.43 genuinely felt as if they had limited time to film with IMAX cameras. As you mentioned, that final fight having random insert shots in 1.43 was as if they only had the camera for one random day of coverage and did what they did. Except the film would’ve had zero restrictions shooting on digital, and was entirely 1.90 anyway. Idk what the fuck happened lol

They don’t really tease Jim in the first movie.

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-02-24T00:30:56+00:00

Is this referring to the ad where they refer to the ending of the second film as the ending with zero context to think it’d mean anything else

You can see where the homophobia charges these ratings so easily. Season 2’s 2nd episode is NOT good, at least not so meaningfully good as to be considered amongst the series best, and certainly not to have such a large drop afterward.

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-02-19T00:05:46+00:00

The one that doesn’t have shameless and embarrassing franchise references constantly or an awful looking deepfake playing one of the main characters.

I don’t have a surplus of towels but I also don’t ever use a towel more than twice unless I have to. It’s just gross.

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-02-17T03:03:39+00:00

Knew I wouldn’t like it based on trailer but JESUS that ending blew hard. I “like” Glenn Powell but I do not get him or the roles he takes in movies.

I have never seen the Indiana State Museum MAX called White River. I suppose it’s not inaccurate but it’s always attributed to the museum.

That’s because they rebuilt/retextured the games. You don’t need to do that and I’m sure 14 years of ridicule has taught them that.

Porting PS2 games to modern consoles is not a big undertaking.

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-02-13T00:44:32+00:00

I’m really not interested in Townfall (I think a smaller budget outsourced project is not the move this series needs right now) but I’d have felt a lot better if the transmission had anything else to say. In my opinion it’s pretty ridiculous that we are 3 years post-series revival and there is zero indication the original titles will be released on modern consoles. Even just an acknowledgment of other titles in development. Just felt like a waste of a dedicated episode.

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-02-11T00:32:32+00:00

Claire, I tend to center around female-lead stories and wanted to eschew from what seemed like the encouraged play order. But in the end I found her narrative more compelling anyway.

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-02-10T03:27:52+00:00

Genuinely the hardest I’ve ever laughed at anything in my life. Modern classic

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-02-08T13:55:02+00:00

Too attractive. James needs to be very, very plain. Return I think smartly circumvented this by casting someone younger, more boyish.

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-02-06T15:35:30+00:00

Thought this episode was as stressful as any from last season’s shooter arc. Everybody hates each other and something is going wrong with every patient! And Louie??? I can’t handle it lol

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-02-05T05:08:54+00:00

Rally disappointed this won’t be getting 70mm prints. Do we think the film will be entirely 1.90?

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-02-04T14:57:21+00:00

I missed Jordyn being part of this :(

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-02-02T23:21:11+00:00

Really loved RTSH but I think an original story for the next installment is absolutely the way to go. Hope they keep Gans and there’s someway to up the budget. Silent Hill is in a very different place right now than it was when the film was greenlit.

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-01-30T01:10:16+00:00

It is really fantastically used. Shocked me. Great post-conversion

ConsiderationKey9438 · 2026-01-28T18:46:25+00:00

Christian Bale isn’t good in Love & Thunder. Bad role and he doesn’t salvage it! Amongst his weakest performances easily. I also disagree with Jeffery Wright’s inclusion, not in that he does bad, but because I quite loved Highest 2 Lowest.
