    I get it. If I was looking at that seating chart, I’d be thinking:
    “Screw it. If I have to sit in the front, I’m going to sit in The front.”

      Yep the first three rows at my local (fake) IMAX are flat and all.pretty similar next straining look up at screen so might as well get the leg room and less restricted view.

    Honestly, as I get older, I appreciate seats with lots of leg room more and more. I got “theater knees” that would bother me more than the neck pain and retinal damage that probably comes with that seat.

    It’s Nolan, so it’s going to be unbearably loud…it might as well be unbearably bright, right?

      If you don’t leave Oppenheimer without full-thickness burns, retinal damage, and blown eardrums–are you really watching the way Christopher Nolan intended?

    Best guess would be C. Nolan.

    70mm print on opening night will look absolutely amazing. This is likely the only chance many people will have to see an actual film print that was not digitally altered.

    Nolan uses chemical color and manual film assembly. This just doesn’t happen anymore.

    It’s a Chris Nolan film. That’s the only way to get the dialogue.

    …Seriously though. His films have such poor sound mixing. Thank the heavens for dynamic compression.
