Star Wars: Episode VII - The Force Awakens (USE SPOILER TAGS!) - Page 948 - Blu-ray Forum

Gold Ranger · 11-04-2015, 01:08 PM

any other NY'er pissed at this:
Select IMAX theaters will be projecting The Force Awakens in 70mm film and if you have the chance to see anything projected in this format, you should leap at the chance. Nothing beats it for clarity and it never looks anything short of gorgeous. Here are the IMAX screens that will screening 70mm prints (the links take you to each theater’s ticketing page):

Alabama
McWane Center IMAX Dome Theatre – Birmingham
IMAX, U.S. Space & Rocket Center – Huntsville
California
Hackworth IMAX Dome, The Tech Museum – San Jose
Florida
Museum of Discovery & Science AutoNation IMAX – Ft. Lauderdale
IMAX Dome, Museum of Science & Industry – Tampa
Indiana
IMAX, Indiana State Museum – Indianapolis
Iowa
Blank IMAX Dome, Science Center of Iowa – Des Moines
Missouri
Branson’s IMAX, Entertainment Complex – Branson
St. Louis Science Center OMNIMAX Theatre – St. Louis
Pennsylvania
Tuttleman IMAX, The Franklin Institute– Philadelphia
International
LG IMAX, Darling Harbour – Sydney, Australia

If a 70mm screening isn’t happening near you, you can try your luck with theaters utilizing IMAX’s new Laser system, which the company claims will provide “audiences with the sharpest, brightest, clearest and most vivid digital images ever, combined with a whole new level of immersive audio.” We can’t personally speak on behalf of IMAX With Laser, but this is a company known for pushing the boundaries of new and exciting technology. Why not give it a shot with the new Star Wars? Anyway, here is where you can watch The Force Awakens in Laser, which certainly sounds appropriate:

California
TCL Chinese Theatres IMAX – Hollywood
AMC Metreon 16 & IMAX – San Francisco
AMC Universal CityWalk Stadium 19 & IMAX – Universal City
Massachusetts
Sunbrella IMAX 3D Theatre, Jordan’s Furniture Reading – Reading
Ontario
Scotiabank Toronto & IMAX – Toronto
Virginia
Airbus IMAX, Stephen F. Udvar-Hazy Center – Chantilly
Washington
Boeing IMAX, Pacific Science Center – Seattle
International
IMAX, Melbourne Museum – Australia
Event Cinemas Queen Street IMAX – New Zealand
VOX Cinemas & IMAX – UAE
Cinestar Berlin & IMAX – Germany
Filmpalast AM ZKM IMAX – Germany
Empire Leicester Square IMAX – United Kingdom
Cineworld Sheffield & IMAX – United Kingdom

Same here. I am a big Hazlenut fan.

Hey fans planning on seeing TFA then adhere to these rules.

Gold Ranger · 11-04-2015, 01:38 PM

Some Theaters ARE allowing Lightsabers, some aren't.
NO Theater is allowing Blasters!

The first season (or at least the first chunk of it) of any animated show is always lighter than the rest, probably to get the executives approval more easily.
And sincerely I don't get the "kids show" vibe that much even in the first season, the worst part was in the movie and even then it doesn't get worse than the kid character giving funny nicknames and that's a thing that gets dropped fairly quickly in the series proper.

Aye. Even the animation itself got an upgrade during the later seasons, they improved the models and changed Ahsoka's costume to something a little less trashy.

Those look awesome! Anticipation is building!

What's up with the eye covering motif?

Moviefan2k4 · 11-04-2015, 04:18 PM

Is that first one Leia? Something about her face looks a little "off"...

I like the common theme. Although I do kind of think that Leia's looks more like something from Divergent than from Star Wars. The rest are perfect, IMO.

Those are for the 2D version (someone messed up by referring to 3D)?

I like the Leia one, clearly she's supposed to be in a command centre or something.
