What is this shit with IMAX in The Odyssey etc? Can an American explain us?
If they need a new ratio why they don’t make it a new standard?
My CRT TV back then was 4:3 but for some reason it was too square for the modern industry…
First off theres like 4 different versions of IMAX I’m not gonna get into the nitty gritty of each one and just talk about the relevant one. “True” IMAX is a proprietary film standard that needs a specific projector, screen, film, and theater size to be properly displayed. The projectors are no longer manufactured and there are an extremely limited amount of true IMAX theaters in the world like double digits limited. The big draw for IMAX for someone like Nolan and viewers is how much detail on a massive screen you can get. As to why they dont make a new standard theres a meme you can search for that summarizes when you make a new “better” standard it just becomes a standard. 16:9 is afaik a middle ground standard that most industries have settled on. Aspect ratios are a complicated topic with a lot of subjective expression especially in the world of cinema. In my opinion the outrage is a nothing burger cinema is art if Nolan wants to display it a certain way its his prerogative if someone feels that it diminishes the experience for them imo just dont watch it. They can also complain its none of my business what people do I just find it a bit ridiculous to complain about.
the most common type of IMAX nowadays is “just” running two 4k laser digital projectors, overlapping eachother so you get double the pixel density, at a much better contrast, and at 60fps.
Unfortunatly, that’s still less than half the resolution of the “old” 70mm horizontal film projector. But it gets rid of the absurd arc-lamp they have in the film projectors, which would be the envy of ww2 searchlight operators.
I heard the saying “Watching Interstellar on an Apple Watch”. I almost want to get an Apple watch JUST to try it
Fake, the scene is well lit
The shadow.
CREEEEPY
Perfect room to find the hat man

Normally I would agree, but if this is a bedroom and they’re lying down, I think the angle works. I actually want to raise my living room TV a bit (it’s on an entertainment stand, not the wall) because when I fully recline my recliner to stretch my legs, I’m looking down too much to be comfortable.
Needs a projector that can be rotated to project onto the ceiling.
Time to mount the TV on orbital rails.
Would be even better if it was mounted above a fireplace
I know someone that’s done it like so.
Not good enough, he demands people watch this film on a 70mm screen. So get out your GBA SP.
Too high to be a Travelodge TV surely
What’s the opposite of IMAX?
IMIN? I CRY?
ISQUINT
UMIN?

You have no idea the physical toll, that three vasectomies have on a person.
I came to post an image from this scene as well. I see that’s been taken care of.
I gotta give the showrunners credit. “Dinner Party” was both the most cringe-inducing episode as well as one of the best of the series. That’s really hard to achieve.
This image triggers my PTSD.
A lot of people in the room? You need more space? *moves TV 2 inches* Voila. Right into the wall.
Reminder that he didn’t give a fuck about controlling outbreaks of pre vaccine COVID and that he wanted to force people to see Tenet in cinemas.
You know, jam hundreds of people into a closed room for two and a half hours so that you can have super spreader events multiple times a day.
I watched that shit on my phone while sick in bed. Thank you for reminding me that all his films deserve the same treatment.
Covid was just an offshoot of a cold.
And shit is just an offshoot of food. Why don’t you eat that?
How to show everyone, for not reason, that you’re incredibly dumb and ignorant. Well done.
Brother he’s a film director not a politician.
Yea, the wealthy have no power, and therefore, no responsibility.
I mean, fair, but he’s not “head of multiple mega corporations with massive political sway” wealthy, he’s just “very successful film director for many years” wealthy.
Looking it up, he’s worth $250 million, or about 1/3200 the worth of Elon Musk.
He still controlled (heavily influenced) how the film was released. That sort of influence in your own industry is control.
It not only affected the safety of everyone employed own chain (eg. theater workers), is put public safety at risk. The attitude of “well it was not illegal, so it’s governments fault, not his.” Is part of the problem.
Following a negotiation between Nolan and Warner Bros. executives, the studio arranged for the film to be released in seventy countries, with a run time of 150 minutes, on August 26,[105][106][107] following preview screenings in Australia and South Korea on August 22 and 23.[108][109] The film opened in select cities in the United States on September 3, gradually expanding in the ensuing weeks.[105] On September 4, it was released in China.[110] The lack of available movies afforded it more screens per multiplex than would otherwise have been possible.[111]

them dates are before the vaccine became available. He drove a bargin as hard as he could, to get as many people to see the film as he could.
Yeah, he’s not a politican, but neither was Typhoid Mary.
Eh, still better than AI-riddled CG slop.
David Lynch is going to haunt you.
Calling a little computer that does everything ever a “telephone” is such an incredible move.
what’s the Nolan meme here, OOTL
The Odyssey is the first film shot entirely in IMAX film. (1.43:1 aspect ratio)
Ohhh… I see why cinemas might find that hard. Though why didn’t he just crop it?
It is cropped to fit specific screens. Went to pull a graphic showing it and found they actually have a page on the Odyssey movie page showing how the film looks in different aspects
As Nolan intended
The sound better be mono.
2.5” cones in that tv make it sound amazing. Like listening to it through a tin can I imagine
