    IMAX tickets for Oppenheimer acquired! The last time I was IMAX I was with a bunch of mates watching Inception and I remember it being such an awesome experience so hopefully it’s just as good (or better) this time around.

        Oh that would have been good to see! I watched it at home on my tv and fell asleep midway so maybe if I saw it at IMAX I would’ve stayed awake :D

      My last IMAX venture was Avatar. Cool cinema but the seats we got maybe was a tad too close.

        Yeah we had to book Tues afternoon tickets cause all there were no good seats left in the evening shows (as in seats in the prime locations)

          It looks interesting from the ads I saw. I hope you got some good seats and enjoy the film!

          Been awhile since I’ve done a midweek cinema trip though.

        That’s how IMAX is supposed to work - you’re seated close to the screen so it fills a substantial part of your peripheral vision. It works very well for content shot specifically for IMAX, but films intended for conventional cinemas don’t work so well, and you need to keep turning your head to look around the screen.

          Yep. Was a bit of a pain but someone invited me along so I didn’t get to choose the seats.

          Hurt a bit craning my neck from side to side but it was still a good watch.
