A 2020 UPDATE is on its way with exclusive quotes from Dolby Labs themselves!
In this video I explain what Dolby Cinema is and what separates it from the rest of the premium movie going options out there. Below are some links to additional videos I've made explaining other topics including what IMAX is and what Dolby Vision is (Dolby's version of HDR). There are also some links to official press releases by Dolby Laboratories and AMC Entertainment regarding the expansion of Dolby Cinemas around the world. Be sure to follow me on Instagram and Facebook @movieuniversitycentral Hopefully at the end of this video I will have answered the questions of dolby cinema vs imax, what makes dolby cinema better and why is dolby cinema good.

I work at an AMC and have spent a lot of time in our dolby theater. The dolby theater is by far our most popular and I personal think it's the best way to see a horror/action movie (comedies, romance, etc. look good but theres no reason to see it in such high def). I also agree with many of the things in the video. The only thing he got wrong was the projection hallway. Not all dolby cinemas have that.

I just been to a Dolby Cinema movie theater last night for the first time and I was blown away. Picture and sound quality was superb. I watched Black Adam (2nd, time) from the 4DX version (1st time). I'm a fan of 4DX because it "keeps me awake" due to movement, but it does shake your popcorn all over the place. On the other hand Dolby Cinema keeps the classic movie experience, but with high quality cinema and audio experience. And your snacks stay put. Dolby Cinema keeps you emotionally in tuned to the movie with the awesome audio. I'm looking forward on going to another movie with the feature of Dolby Cinema in the near future. 😁🙌🏽

I first experienced Dolby Cinema when Alita: Battle Angel came out and I now only watch movies in Dolby. I did not know what it was at the time and I quickly looked it up and after the movie I was really impressed. I have always been into A/V whether it be in my car or home and now that Cinema is finally able to keep up and surpass homes again it makes me happy.

James Cameron is one of the few film producers (not the director on this film) that core understands how to produce natural perspective 3D cinematography experiences with deep artistic angles in Native 3D , most other producers convert 2D native content over to the format and have not done there homework making there films visual cognitive stressful to watch ,, I will also leverage that cinema owners not adhering to 3D film presentation standards are in large part to blame for the formats decline. There is technology developed by Dolby that Enables Glasses less 3D.

Great overall video. Over here in Canada we don’t have Dolby Cinema as AMC went out of business here. We have AVX and IMAX. The good thing, most of the IMAX theatres have been renovated and they have Laser IMAX screens with new comfy seats as well. They all use Dolby Atmos for sound. Movies like Avengers: Infinity/EndGame, I would recommend in IMAX as they are fully shot with IMAX cameras. I do hope Dolby Cinema make their way to the Canadian market one day! Want to experience it badly!

Hi Carlos, I'm always glad to answer questions, especially from a subscriber =D The to projectors are their for brightness and black levels NOT for resolution. To my understanding of how the projectors work, they are mounted side by side. One is set for optimal brightness and the other for optimal black levels. This ensures you are getting the best contrast/colors possible on screen. Below is the original link of which Christie projectors are used and a the PDF or the technicals www.christiedigital.com/en-us/cinema/cinema-products/digital-cinema-projectors/christie-duo-digital-cinema-projection-solution www.christiedigital.com/SupportDocs/Anonymous/Christie-Duo-FAQs.pdf There is also some very complicated software put in place to assist in giving viewers the perfect HDR image on screen and to sync the two images. If you would like to read more in detail about the software here is the original paper published by Dolby on the topic of the software involved. www.dolby.com/us/en/technologies/dolby-vision/the-art-of-better-pixels.pdf Hope this answers your question.

Now, I'm close to both a Liemax (and a real Imax, Dome to boot, but that's a museum dome that I doubt would show an action movie like Avengers,) and a Dolby Cinema theater. I'm wondering... Which would you recommend, given that the movie is completely filmed with IMAX cameras? Thank you for the time.

One of the few things the midwest can proudly proclaim is being on the cutting edge of theater technology. I live in Kansas City and with AMC being headquartered just a few miles away in Kansas. We've gotten pretty spoiled being some of the first to experience the new tech. I still can't ever decide if I want to see something in IMAX or Dolby Cinema. My only movie going stipulations now are having reserved and reclining seats. It's nice knowing you have a seat and can show up 15 minutes late if you don't care about any of the trailers.

I have the real deal IMAX at Lincoln Square (AMC Theaters) (1570 format) in my area and it's absolutely amazing, and worth having my foot stepped on, but the other IMAXes aren't adequate. Saw the Dolby Experience at the same Lincoln Square theater and I loved it too. I wish there were more 1570 IMAXes and Dolby Cinema duos around considering in I am about to move out of NYC someday. But the only silver lining is Dolby is expanding aggressively, so much so perhaps I can have better access to great deep colored picture and superb sound either ways.

in Burbank we have both a REAL IMAX & Dolby Cinema. Burbank was one of the first few cities to get the Dolby Cinema upgrade back in 2014 when the ETX room got upgraded to AMC Prime which was partnered with Dolby. i got invited to the 1st opening when Godzilla released but then was rescheduled due to faulty equipment but i still saw Godzilla in IMAX which is great & i always prefer IMAX but only if its Specially Formatted or Filmed With IMAX Cameras, i dont do Optimized aka IMAX Port. anyways after the reschedule i was invited back for the opening of X-Men Days Of Future Past & i knew from that experience Dolby Cinema is the best Large Format compared to XD & others. since then i only see movies in Dolby Cinema for movies that arent Specially Formatted or Filmed with IMAX. so far this year ive seen Tomb Raider, A Quiet Place, Deadpool 2, The Incredibles 2 & Jurassic World 2 in Dolby Cinema & im happy with that

how big on average would a Dolby Cinema screen be then?? Compared to the 28ftx58ft LIEmax screen?
@MovieUniversity
@MovieUniversity Жыл бұрын
It depends on a variety of factors. I've been to DC's that are massive and are bigger than liemax's and then I've been to some that seem average for what you'd expect from a premium screen. It comes down to how much the local AMC theater wanted to invest in the auditorium. Typically, your AMCs that are close to big cities will have the bigger screens.

@Ale12, Kevan Yang is correct. It's been a while since I've watch the video, but apparently I misspoke or did not convey the information as I had intended. This is my fault. Dolby Cinema is indeed capable of 3D, and several movies have shown in it (The Martian, Titanic). However, as 3D sales were already falling when the Dolby installs were wrapping up, AMC and Dolby elected to feature 2D versions with very select exceptions. It's a mission statement, not an equipment limitation- all Dolby Cinema installs could show 3D if they wanted to, but they rarely do. The problem is that during non-3D Dolby, both projectors work together to give you the best image. With 3D each projector has to supply the image for only one eye, so instead of getting the combined effect of two projectors in one eye, you get individual projections on a per eye basis. AMC and Dolby have elected to feature 2D versions with very select exceptions. It's a mission statement, not an equipment limitation You'll be hard to find a Dolby Cinema that plays movies in 3D on a regular basis. I suspect the next Avatar movie will be one of the last 3D movies in cinemas in the US because of their unpopularity (in my opinion). Here's an article talking about the decline of 3D at the boxoffice that you both might find insightful. www.hollywoodreporter.com/behind-screen/is-golden-age-3d-officially-1025843

Yea, I just learned about the whole LieMax thing. I never really cared about it because I had AMC's A-list, which enables me to watch 3 movies a week on any format I wanted with only $21 a month, $23 if you want to enable this membership in big cities such as NYC. So I always watch both Dolby and LieMAX at AMC. But recently due to personal financial reasons, I had to cancel my A-list membership because I can't afford it anymore, and will pay actual money to watch the movies. This made me finally think about which format is better, which led me to learn about the whole LieMax thing. I been to the LieMax theater in AMC Empire 25, the location in Time Square for those of you who is wondering, and honestly, I must say, that is the probably the nicest LieMax theater I had ever been to, there is leather seats with some slight degree of recline. But it is still LieMax. I just brought a ticket to see Godzilla vs Kong in Dolby at the time of this comment, can't wait. But if I were presented with a real IMAX screen, I probably would not watch it, this is purely due to the fact that I get motion sick easily, and with that big of a screen, forget it, not worth the trouble. It is also interesting to note that Dolby 3D in AMC exists, I had been to a few screenings of Dolby 3D in an AMC theater in Hampton, Virginia. But this is VERY rare, and the 3D glasses used for those screenings are a rare sight by itself, it works differently than traditional 3D glasses used in normal screens and IMAX 3D. Now, if we were to compare premium screen formats other than Dolby and LieMAX, here is my order, 4DX>ScreenX>Dolby>IMAX (Real)>LieMAX. I put 4DX on the top of the list because it is a format that I heard so much about, but never got the chance to been to one. C'mon, moving seats based on what is happening in the movie? That sounds like a real treat. ScreenX is the premium format that first started in South Korea I think, which has an extra screen on both side of your seat, so you get some more in depth story telling from those extra pictures. One last thing, I personally owns a Samsung Q50R TV, which is a 32 inch QLED TV, they boasts that the picture this TV shows has at least 1 billion color gamut, has the accuracy of an OLED screen but without the burn-in issue. Now, going back to Dolby theaters. I can definitely say that Samsung were not kidding about this TV having accurate colors. I watched some of the movies I saw in Dolby theaters on this TV after it got a digital release at home, and the picture quality is pretty much the exact same thing as I first saw it in Dolby theater, did I mention that it also has 4K 60fps? So if you want to buy a small TV with accurate pictures, this is the one you should get, or you can get Samsung's QLED PC monitors, which has the same QLED technology, but also with higher refresh rate AND 4K, but be warned that a normal PC monitor do not have any speakers, while a full fledged TV has one.
