If you're a cinema enthusiast or just curious about what makes IMAX unique, you're in the right place. We cover everything from screen size, aspect ratio, sound quality, to the overall movie-going experience.
IMAX, known for its immersive experience, boasts larger screens, a unique square shape, and a patented sound technology that envelops you in a multi-dimensional audio environment.

Do you know if Bad Boys Ride or Die was filmed in imax?

Not sure if 'Bad Boys Ride or Die' was filmed in IMAX, but you can usually check on the movie's official website or IMDB for that kinda info. If it was, IMAX could totally make those action scenes pop even more!

Do all Hollywood films use IMAX, and can IMAX films be set in regular rooms?

@hifiaudios8101 19 күн бұрын

Nah, not all Hollywood films use IMAX-just the big blockbusters usually. And yep, you can watch IMAX films in regular rooms too, but it's not gonna have that same epic feel or crazy good sound. 😅 Worth it for the big ones though!

There are different imax technologies in different countries but i still dont see how paying 2x to watch the same movie makes sense. Regular 3D and 2D is okay at least nothing ridiculous in price, but the default 2D is still fine and seemingly standard world wide anyways.

The price jump for IMAX can be steep 😬. It's all about the experience though, right? If the bigger screen and sound don’t do much for ya, sticking to 2D makes sense. Plus, you save some cash!

Doesn't imax theater's make you feel like you're moving around with the movie as well?

IMAX does kinda make you feel like you're part of the action with that huge screen and all. Really sucks you into whatever you're watching

IMAX is definitely an experience, but Dolby I like better.

@hifiaudios8101 10 ай бұрын

Absolutely, everyone has their preferences! Dolby indeed offers a great cinematic experience, especially with its superior sound technology. But as you said, IMAX has its own unique charm, especially with the larger screens. Enjoy your movie-watching, whichever format you choose!

@@hifiaudios8101 Dolby has nothing on IMAX beyond personal preference, including its sound system. IMAX sound system isn't only louder and peaks less, but can reach an octave and a half lower than Dolby. The sand worm in Dune 2021 was unforgettable, almost completely because of the sound system IMAX offers. It costs more so everything is better, not just stuff here and there lol it is an upgrade in every sense of the word.

Well you really didnt describe the experience of watching an imax movie just the yechnical differences.

Totally, the IMAX vibe is something else! The massive screen and the insane sound totally pull you into the movie. It’s like you’re right there in the action, not just watching it. Definitely a cool experience if you’re into feeling every part of the film!

@huettvideos Ай бұрын

The sound is always awful in IMAX it's just way too loud.

@hifiaudios8101 Ай бұрын

Yeah, IMAX can definitely get super loud, right? Sometimes it feels like they're trying to blow us away with the volume alone! If it's too much, maybe bring some earplugs next time, or let the theater staff know-it could help them adjust it a bit.

IMAX...? I was deaf can't go watching. Movie ticket so expensive. I buy blu ray disc movie stay at home watching, never go IMAX.

@hifiaudios8101 21 күн бұрын

IMAX does get pricey. Sticking with Blu-rays is a cool choice, especially with home setups being so comfy. Plus, no worries about missing out on the big screen sounds

LieMax is junk imax is rubbish

@hifiaudios8101 4 күн бұрын

not everyone thinks IMAX is worth it, especially with those "LieMax" screens that aren’t the real deal. Depends a lot on the movie and the actual theater, tbh.
