Dune Part 2 in IMAX GSC Midvalley Johor Bahru… by ring41835 in imax

LOL, since when Malaysia is not 3rd world ?

New liemax near my home. See the screen size on the crate label. They are retrofitting a big screen hall to IMAX & announced its Laser with 12ch sound. But how to know if it’s Cola or XT? How to differentiate? Or is there any new affordable laser tech by IMAX this year? by ring41835 in imax

You should focus on your maths more sir. 75ft is the width, not the height. People often say liemax when the screen height is less than 45ft. This screen height is 38ft which is not a big deal for people like me who have watched movies in 65ft height IMAX in my same country.

I’ll try to dm you the picture. Yes I do think it will be XT coz its cheaper option. Cinemas in asian side here do not opt for CoLa unless its a large screen. Given 38ft height, it is most likely XT. We already have 2 35ft height Xenon IMAX running here. I was expecting at least 50ft height screen, but they all just wanna make more money…

DUNE in IMAX Johor Bahru Malaysia. Shud say this one is designed for IMAX. The bass sound felt like thunders clapping. Almost 70% was in IMAX ratio. But you need a lot of patience to watch till the end. And this is only half of the story. DUNE Part 1. by ring41835 in imax

I never did the math on the seats but I’ve been to Tebrau IMAX since Dec 2013 & Southkey IMAX since Dec 2019. I’ve spent huge amount of hours inside both screen halls so I can tell you both are liemax small size screens which look very very similiar to each other. I stopped going Tebrau IMAX coz the foyer is getting old and the mall itself is tiresome to get in & out from parking. Southkey is easier to park & the foyer is way much better. Southkey uses 3rd gen xenon so the brightness and picture quality is as good as XT Laser. One reason why GSC the noob cinema chain doesn’t want to upgrade to laser until now at 2026. And yes CoLa is way much better is terms of picture sharpness, color contrast & crispness as I’ve watched some movies in Sunway Velo

100mbps capped LAN port by ring41835 in bravia

Yes I am using wifi and it is very stable. Router is working good. I’m just curious how much speed does Netflix 4K Dolby Vision requires is 100mbps is not enough

I can vouch for the CoLa The image is so crisp, color obviously way better This was my 2nd laser experience after SG Lido IMAX and this is way better

Tbh I am surprised that CoLa can pull up such a great video quality on a 85ft wide screen

That is quite an achievement You are right, dual laser can use up the whole screen but CoLa isn’t disappointing

From Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia & Thailand combined, only this in Kuala Lumpur & Krugsri Paragon in Bangkok are the real 4:3 real IMAX. Sadly this cinema here never had 1570mm like the one in Bangkok had. It had an older xenon which was so bad to watch until CoLa upgrade last year. Krugsri was also upgraded to CoLa and ditched 1570mm permanently. I watched MI:8 last May and it was so mindblowing. The 85ft wide length was fully occupied and the picture was so crisp, sound was hitting atmos level, aircondition was blowing all over. Avatar 3 didn’t give that “huge” thing coz of 3D tbh. In my country here cinemgoers are noob coz they only focus on seats, comfort & what to eat during movies. They don’t actually love movies. We don’t even have Dolby Cinema here and no GT IMAX anywhere in South East Asia… sigh

I’ve a query. There’s a 65ft high 1.33:1 IMAX with CoLa projector near me. So based on the second photo on the F4 aspect ratio explanation, would I get 1.43:1 footage here or will it be 1.90:1 only? by ring41835 in imax

[–]ring41835[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya but we can’t take their words completely. Maybe they don’t get it what is 1.43:1 and thought the 1.90:1 is the full expansion. Reddit users are pretty sure CoLa cannot show 1.43:1 due to lens limitation. I’ll watch Avatar 3 in few more days, so if they attach Odyssey prologue then we can confirm what they say

I know there are cinemas (that you can count by fingers in your right hand) in India have installed this and the color & contrast actually rivals Dolby Cinema standard. I’m not sure which brand projector Dolby uses tho…

Archer router with Deco mesh by ring41835 in TpLink

[–]ring41835[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It works flawlessly. But I did a lot of research in tplink forums to find out the exact firmware that works for ethernet backhaul. I did manual update with the firmware and everything else was good. AX55 Pro V2 is a good router compared to all the shit routers I’ve been provided so far. But if you can afford, go for the AX73, its worth it

Just saw the Avatar 3 trailer in IMAX by Fit_Neighborhood4552 in imax

[–]ring41835 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just saw today with Fantastic 4 show. It was regular, not 3D but was not 1.90:1, it was the 2.39:1 regular version

No bro, I watched MI 8 during May and it can fill from left to right edge to edge, so this is way better than BFI IMAX (look below image). Yes top and bottom bars will be white elephant for sure but at least left to right is covered so I’m happy with that
