RE: Star Trek
*sigh*
I am very obviously not talking about projecting a 35mm on a 25m high imax screen.
Neither am I talking about projecting a 70mm film on a 8m high normal screen.
:rolleyes:

For each size there is an 'optimum' resolution. A 35mm on a 8m high screen is just as good as a 70mm on a 25m high screen so to speak, provided you sit at the optimum distance for 'normal' movies.

And with a normal action movie there is not much point in sitting 30m away from a 15m high screen with a big resolution than sitting 15m away from a 8m high screen with a lower resolution.... You would see exactly the same stuff flashing by, equally big in size.

Imax isn't inferiour, I said it isn't _that_ much better compared to the big screens we have here in _our_ cinames for normal action movies. I also said it is another story for still images and stuff especially made for Imax to show its benefits.

If the movie is a non-action movie with lots of scenes which are almost static and not much movement then you would notice a bigger difference way more quickly.

But there is probably not a single blockbuster movie which is exclusivly made for Imax. Which makes that there isn't any blockbuster movie which actually takes 100% advantage of the Imax system and which 100% benefits from its resolution. Which means you wont miss that much when you see the movie in 35mm on a big screen (and I mean a big screen, not a crappy 4x3m screen) compared to seeing it on an Imax screen with a 70mm reel.
