Extremely few ppl care about giving specific technical specs of theatres the way you do. And there are tons of pll like me even though we may be in minority but we really absolutely care for these specs. You rock

Keep up the good work, mate. There are some of us cinema enthusiasts with a flair for the tech specs still out there, and we're loving your vidoes❤️🥂

I always appreciate these videos bro. Don't undermine ur effort ever. I am equally enthused about theatre qualities all the time. I do it in Bangalore always everywhere. Great work

Hey Cloudy, first of all, thanks for making this video. This is exactly what I was looking for. I travelled to Mumbai recently for Mood Indigo (meh fest) and I was confident I would have the time to watch Avatar 2 for like the 6th time but finally at an Imax with Laser and most importantly 4K (the entire point of laser). Unfortunately I didn't have the time. I was planning on travelling back to Mumbai again just to watch the movie again at those specs. Yes I am obsessed with it. Are you 100% sure it's not 4K? Because if it isn't, then I don't really care, I'll just wait for the 4K bluray version and watch it on my TV, sitting really close to get that big screen experience.

My old theater I used to go to is now upgraded with Laser. On my last visit to the theater they had upgraded the size of the imax screen before they upgraded with laser and the screen was really huge. I will be going to go see Ariel this coming weekday

which seats are best for full immersion ?

I watched 3D version in bangalore swagat shankarnag onyx LED cinema today and and surprise surprise mind blown it was the IMAX aspect ratio. Very interestingly 2D version for 2 shows at onyx is playing in the scope 2.40:1 ratio and then 3D version for 2 shows uses its full potential and end to end utilizes entire LED. In my opinion, just like prasad, no one can beat this unofficial IMAX aspect ratio 3D experience at onyx led cinema. Must watch at any cost. Sound is the only drawback of this theatre being weaker than any imax else image is miles and miles ahead of any imax. The sharpness the colors the brightness and more than anything the contrast man the contrast is like true Dolby vision HDR image on 4K UHD disc's. Absolutely blown away.

Imax have digital projectors across India apart from few places u mentioned. After watching some imax digital and reel movies in HYD prasads . I felt bad that rest of the digital imax projectors and screen sizes damn low or liemax screens they are. Yes seating at pvr is better but the normal screens have pulzz speakers and some bekar sound system like supersound system(no dolby or dts). Very few pvr and inox screens have dolby 7.1 speakers system. We can count 4k dolby atmos screens( especially corporate maintained multiplexes PVR & Inox) on fingers in different cities. We don't have proper DCP compliance and theater monitoring systems in India .state govts prefer to tax the patrons more for watching on silverscreen. Movie buffs like us love to watch stories on silverscreens. But the bad thing is Cinema exhibitors are in the hands of Corporate lobbies. I have grt memories from HYD , Vishakapatnam single screens in my teenage. SANGEETH 70mm was 70mm screen in secundrabad with xenon light platter screen . I enjoyed many Hindi and English movies there and Anand70mm nearby parade grounds . I have tons of memories with the theaters . For me theater is kinda of cathedral where I rejoice and relish myself. Thank u for taking time and making videos on Cinema 🎥 projection and technicalities

@KDCloudy I found your link from r/IMAX and wow, what a great video. I was searching for exactly something like this, but it's sad the search results don't have this one. I'm from Kerala, and I'm planning to visit Bangalore to see this film in IMAX, but realized they have the older xenon projectors. Likewise, I am confused now. Do you recommend the IMAX theatres in Bangalore ? Or is it better to go to a 4k laser + Dolby Atmos theatre near me? There's also the IMAX in Trivandrum, Kerala - is that better than Bangalore IMAX(s) ?

Great video. I talked to the PVR and Cinepolis Saket managers and both said they only got 2K DCPs of Avatar. The Cinepolis Saket manager said the only screen they were showing a 4K print in was the Onyx screen (which was in 2D though). Is it confirmed that the xenon imaxes are also showing in 48fps?

IMAX theatres in Singapore got laser upgrades and man it was damn noticeable at their first location where the batman was not clear but after the upgrades, Avatar 2009 remaster rerelease was just amazing in IMAX 3D.

Bro so trying to book openhimer on book my show , some theatre says imax , some says imax screen , and one theater say imax lazer. Obviously the lazer one will be better but what is the exact difference between all this.

Ahh finally the imax one

I also watched this movie in Select City Walk , my 3rd experience of imax after Dune and Brahmastra It was awesome 😃😃 The main thing is that in India people don't care about experience much its only the few like us who do care about the experience More than 60% population in India can't afford to watch a movie even in multiplex and Imax prices are way out of reach for normal person those who can afford I think multiplexes should reach to Village people , I have friends who want to watch a movie in theatre but they don't go and rather watch it in mobile phones because of high money What's your opinion??? 😅

That's a cool video ! Excuse me, do you happen to know about the sound format in the DCP content? Is it IMAX12 (12.1 ch) for the IMAX with Laser ? Thank you

Thinking of catching Avatar 2 in IMAX. Which one do you recommend between Select Citywalk and the Noida Logix IMAX theatres?

Prasad imax used to have film projectors till Interstellar it was amazing i was blown away with film quality then they switched .its good but there is something missing

Was your theter dual laser or single laser? This may be relevant to the demished quality you noticed. Also full imax ratio is 1.45:1 avatar 2 is 1.78:1 in imax. I went to a dual laser theter wirh a 70' screen that is 1.45:1 and avatar 2 did not fill the full screen. I did have issues wirh my 2 sets of 3d glasses where the right lens bleed alot from the left immage. You can check one eye in the previews. My glasses also did not fold or have laser branding. Edit lfe exzaminer shows select city walk as being single laser. Edit 2 Imax GT dual laser systems could only do 2k and hfr or 4k and hfr. Although the immage should be a bit brighter and not as bad as expected due to the wider aspect ratio and dual laser being dual 2k

what about screen of Akshardham Delhi

I was under the impression that the Saket one plays at 4k.I was planning to go there for Oppenheimer but I guess Logix Noida will do. Appreciate your efforts for making this video bro.

Can anyone tell me is XT laser better than commercial 3D laser imax?

Me watched first time in some local theatre in Bangalore in Hindi. That theatre was just too big and we were seating in the back and mostly we were unable to hear the sound. And yesterday I watched same movie in English in Delhi IMAX and the experience were over the top. 😅

I watched the movie in IMAX kolkata.The experience was not so great as the sitting was not comfortable and the screen was not as big as I expected.3D effects were immersive but in high frame rate it was very distinguishable. btw your video is awesome,Not many youtuber have a clear idea like u do,keep up your good work. I have a small request can u please make a video on pvr pxl? I have heard they show IMAX certified movies in their theaters.

does imax in bengaluru[pvr kormangala] has laser projection

The After effects of Prasad Large Screen made a huge impact on this video.

I think they did the same thing (2K DCP) for Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part 1. It didn’t feel like it was in 4K. I watched it in Broadway Cinemas IMAX at Coimbatore

Is Chennai pallazo have 2k digital IMAX or 4k IMAX?

Bro. Would Prasads be able to show other IMAX movies in the same tall aspect ratio or was this just exclusive to Avatar? Do you know by any chance? P.S Being in Hyderabad, I unnecessarily went with AMB Cinemas (4K Laser) thinking it would provide the best experience💔(wanted to avoid the possible top and bottom black bars at prasads) Didn't know at the time that Prasads showed the full aspect ratio even without being an IMAX, and had dual laser projection too. The sound at AMB was a bit underwhelming.

Same experience watching Gaurdians Of The Galaxy at Saket :/ Bro should I choose Logix Noida for Spiderverse, Flash and Oppenheimer?

Prasad correctly not IMax. One screen in Aries plus in trivandrum. Amazing experience Dolby atmos 64 channel and one of the biggest screen in india and most advanced Barco projecter 52k luminus is amazing.

💯🔥🔥🔥

Is the delhi laser one 1:43:1 ratio?

In Prasad's, I had a slight blue tint to left of my eye with glasses

I would suggest you also check out LED cinemas which are extremely few in country. There is one in mumbai one in delhi and one bangalore . In my experience of all imax in Bangalore and all regular theatres In bangalore they all can't even stand in front of LED cinema picture quality. It's kind of like an OLED technology I.e. the contrast level is insane because at pixel level the light gets turned off and we get absolutely deep pure black. The aspect ratio is certainly a benefit we get only and only in imax but if purely care about reference grade colors, reference grade contrast and brightness, LED cinema is the ultimate in bangalore. So I am guessing it should hold equally good in mumbai and delhi ones as well

Hey man, do you have any information with regards to whether IMAX in Bangalore is playing it in HFR? Since there's a lot of confusion with respect to this

If possible please do a video on Best theatres in the world.

IMAX proving again that they are lieMAX, the only 2 IMAX with laser in India charging 500-600 minimum ticket price while the rest of the digital IMAX's in India charging above 1000 which are less boxoffice capable cities than the 2 IMAX with laser situated cities

Can u please tell which cinemas u visited in Noida for IMAX with 70 feet wide ?

Bro, where are you planning on to watch Oppenheimer & Dune p2? Also, PVR LOGIX NOIDA vs. IMAX SAKET, Do both these theatres play movies in full imax aspect ratio?

Ya but I have observed that 2D quality is better than 3D. So I always prefer 2D. Best quality. Maybe 4K deteriorates to 2K in 3D. You say 2K. But I find it blurry rather. Specially normal 3D. I had watched alladin in imax 3D wadala . That was good.

Hey KDCloudy, is it true that old Dual laser gt can't do HDR but new single laser does? And what gen laser projection is currently used in Indian Laser Imax theatres? Thank You

Imax with lazer or prasad large screen chose one

So should I watch the new Fast movie on IMAX With Laser or should I watch it with Prime? It’s for AMC Theater

Bro which 3d did you found better. The Dolby 3d from prasads or imax laser 3d??

Planning to go to pvs select city imax with laser to watch Oppenheimer from meerut...should I?

Usually IMAX with Laser Should usually Go from 1.90:1 to 1.43:1,why it doesn't 1.43:1

Bhai kisme dekhna best rahega pvr ambience gurgaon imax 3d or pvr saket imax laser 3d or pvr logix noida

Why Prasad imax closed(converted) Imax india is planning any big screen like prasad anytime soon.

Sir i am planning to watch interstellar in theatre soon.....in which theatre should i watch it in??? PVR Priya Pvr vegas Pvr mall of noida Pvr logix Pvr ambience Pvr select city walk Are your options Planning to watch it twice/thrice sir.

You should check out the PVR : Nexus mall , Kukatpally, Hyderabad theatre they are showing the movie in 4k, 7.1 real Dolby Atmos

You spoke about the seats but not the sound. 😄

Bro Titanic is re releasing in 4k 3d remastered. Konse me dekhna sahi rahega imax laser or normal imax 3d in ambience gurgaon

I live in Noida too and was planning to go see this movie in IMAX Delhi but now I won't. btw do the subtitles in the movie really show up in the middle of the screen like that?

I Watched Frist This Movie At Inox They Are Playing At 24fps Then Second Time I Watched It On PVR PXL They Are Playing At 48fps And The High Frame Rate Is Mind Blowing

Does it make difference digital to laser projection ? .. I know laser is much better .. does in real it can be made out .. And why does other theatres can go big size as prasads?

It’s a huge difference, it’s just like watching a movie on an OLED screen the blacks are pitch dark black in the movie and colors are more punchier

The problem is: projectors are crashing around the world while screening this movie. It’s unfortunate. I watched the movie in 3 different theaters including IMAX and PXL. All theatres faced problems. In one theater that had laser projection and had a flawless image, the projector crashed twice during the movie. James Cameron has created a movie that’s ahead of projector technology at this time.

Bhai Khaana kaisa hai cinema wagera mein yeh bhi toh bata, Shipra Mall Jam mein pehle Samosa milta tha ab nahi milta. Kisi cinema hall mein Samosa milta ho toh bata.

I think prasad is not imax anymore

Bro imax with laser me 4k quality nahi chalate to kya matlab use acha digital imax better h, seat Me kya rakh h. Ye batao imax with laser me 4k quality me movie chalta h ki bas naam ka h. Me to chhattisgarh se delhi jake movie dekhne wala tha ab sab. Chur chur ho gaya😔😔

I am watch avatar in pvr bangalore and pcx hyderabad.prasad is the best experience compared than imax.

The story with IMAX always comes with disappointment in something that is not up to the advertised standard.

i dont watch 3D, that makes me dizzy.

It doesnt make sense, what the point of having dual 4k laser,3D HFR capable projector and not playing that version if its not avatar then what is it for

Wrong! It was 4K.
