-Finally "the IMAX camera is so noisy that any dialogue needs to be looped in post production", which means no sync sound.

Don't worry though there's still directors ou there like Nolan, Favreau, McG etc who want to film a whole big movie in IMAX.
Good information here^^^. I will agree with the op that the PQ os the IMAX scenes in TDK equals Nirvana. Maybe Nolan would take the risk of doing an entire movie in IMAX.
