Bubba, Did you watch this at the Seattle Center Imax? If so I may have go to check it out; curious as to how much they're charging. Thanks
B) In regards to it not being cut I think I figured out why it was able to run the full length. When you watch it you notice that it doesn't take up the full screen like a normal IMAX movie. Even though it was shot in Super 35 it was shown in its OAR. This would allow you to have more frams per lenght than before. So with that in mind you could fit (and these are arbitrary numbers) 140,000 frames where as before you could only fit 100,000 frams on the same lenght of film.
Bet the Imax version rocks.
Decent guess. But can't be one of the possibilities. Reason being is this, while standard 35MM & 70MM is run vertically through the projector, IMAX is run horizontally through the projector. IMAX is actually 15 perf 70MM run on it's side. So the space not being used top & bottom on Reloaded & other IMAX DMR releases is not taking up any less space as the full width of the frame is still being used. As such the film is still the same length whether you use the full vertical space or not.
