This list will contain 4K UHD Blu-rays with exclusive IMAX aspect ratio switching scenes, shown only in IMAX theaters. The list is small unfortunately, but each new 4K UHD Blu-ray is a gift.

I know. I said 4K DI film.

Someone say 2K finished in (IMAX Verizon)

Argue....

I own STID UHD is Amazing! I love it Dolby Atmos and HDR!

Adam_ME · 08-29-2016, 04:42 PM

Unfortunately BvS wasn't on this list. Hopefully Ghostbusters will be even though it's only one scene.

imsounoriginal · 08-29-2016, 05:16 PM

I have a feeling Ghostbusters will open up for the 3D but not for the 4K. Hope it's both, though.

Seems 3D only, yes. I have put that movie in the regular Blu-ray topic:

Removed 'Life of Pi' which I mentioned yesterday. All venues had the switching as well. Nothing exclusive for IMAX.

I watched Ghostbusters 4K last night and it had the screen breaking effects and the portal scene opened up to fill the screen.

Pieter V · 10-13-2016, 09:32 AM

Added. Also got word the regular 2D Blu-ray does have the IMAX switching as well.

Excellent, now I can sell the 3D disc out of the UHD pack and get a few quid back.

Confirmed somewhere at 17.00.

pottyaboutpotter1 · 07-09-2017, 12:20 PM

I'm hoping the various rumored Disney releases (GOTG2, Beauty and the Beast, Pirates 5, The Force Awakens) all have their IMAX Aspect Ratios on UHD.

Shouldn't The Last Knight not count for the same reason as Life of Pi- that it's VAR was part of the normal DCP.

toasted · 09-12-2017, 07:47 PM

Yeah, and Ghostbusters had the VAR on the DCP as well.

Firebear · 09-12-2017, 08:23 PM

The Last Knight was awful with the switching. Every second it would change.

Pieter V · 10-29-2017, 04:16 PM

Removed: Ghostbusters & Transformers. Not being exclusive to IMAX.

xSAMCOx · 10-29-2017, 06:12 PM

IMax screen shift is more effektive on 3D blurays when there action it goes full screen.

adds to the exsperience. In Uhd its

not the same effect

mrjr101 · 10-29-2017, 11:15 PM

Now this, i don't just get why not make the movie original aspect ratio for the non IMAX shots 1:85:1 so that the screen shift is not as disappointing when we don't get the IMAX scenes.

Because in cinemas, scope movies are wider. But at home, it's "shorter".
