Si, creo en el cine, como en todo lo que nos rodea, claro siempre, alguien se fija como podria tener algo perfecto? es superior a todo, un agradable momento que nos deja a nosotros, los cultores con una esperanza.

I have a question. I have never been inside the IMAX theater at Cinemark Theaters. Do they have stadium seating in IMAX? Is the sound too loud in IMAX?

IMAX and 3D are 2 different things, IMAX is filmed in 70 mm film (about twice the size of regular 35 mm film,) When film negitaves are larger you can put more information on each cell making the picture you see have amazing clarity, it's like hi-def TV) however, 3D is filmed with the idea that each eye when using special glasses can see a different depth, it's created with a tint that shows up only when wearing tinted glasses, try wearing 3D glasses watching a 3D movie and closing one eye and then the other, the 3D effect goes away as each eye closes, now if you use the larger IMAX film along with 3D you get an incredible picture quality along with life like 3 dimension as opposed to regular TV reception which is normally 2 D (dimension)..

I am no techy by far, but I understood just fine. Instead of regular one projector they use two which enhances everything times two. And of course the screens are so much bigger and with 3D the things that jump out of the screen do not come out a little bit. Instead they come right out and into your face. Then with the Imax domes the movie screen is exaclty 360 degrees around you...put that with some 3D and your going to feel like your standing in the middle of the movie.

I work for a theatre that had an IMAX built on. I am in charge of projection, and understand the differences. First off, IMAX has both digital and film projectors (film is a pain in the a$$, but it IS better than digital IMAX). 2D IMAX plays through one (but sometimes two) of the two projectors. 3D IMAX plays through both, with a polarizer in the light's path creating the 3D effects. The glasses are polarized to match the polarizers on the projectors (try tilting your head to the side while wearing the glasses or wearing the glasses and look at a normal tv). 2D does not use polarizers. Each projector uses a 6000 Watt bulb (as opposed to 3000W-4200W in our regular auditoriums) and (ours) has 15000 Watts dishing out the audio.
We raise our glasses to the screen souses we can't forget, even after a few shots.
