I already bought my ticket weeks ago!

[–] TexasJack (12516) 5 years ago

Awesome, enjoy! Are you excited for Matrix 4?

[–] Stratego (30761) 5 years ago

Not really. I don't actually like the sequels.😬

But thanks. I saw the first movie in theatre back in 1999 and I've loved it ever since. Are you going?

[–] TexasJack (12516) 5 years ago

Yes.

[–] Stratego (30761) 5 years ago

Well, have fun yourself!😉

I wish they would have some IMAX shows.

[–] TexasJack (12516) 5 years ago

I saw Reloaded in IMAX, it was great.

Reloaded was my first experience at an IMAX.

Just saw it on a pretty big screen. Unfortunately it looked like they were literally playing the 4k bluray through the projector. Looked pretty soft on a screen that size, plus they didn't scan it in correctly. Was left with a 2.35:1 image in a black rectangle that wasn't extended across the whole screen.

Another thing that was kind of irritating was the grade! Looked crushed and the contrast seemed way higher than I remember it. Kind of like how you watch standard res Netflix and all the movies are black as coal.

Was pretty disappointing but having not seen the film for many years it was hard to walk out disappointed.
