Discussing camcording here, it is very illegal to camcord a film inside the cinema here in my country the Philippines they'll make you charge a very heavy fine. While in China, it waa unfair that most of them camcorded Avengers: Endgame and upload it on UA-cam.
I saw Endgame in Dolby and that was my first time seeing a movie in the new Dolby theater. It was the most immersive, epic movie experience I've ever had and now I only see movies with Dolby. However some movies can be a bit too loud that it's almost unbearable. That was the case with the newest Godzilla movie but I have a feeling that that was more the movie than the theater's fault.
Movie theaters set the speakers to a calibrated level. The movie makers decide the loudness when making the movie. Monster movies are supposed to feel big and loud.
Dune was like this. Saw it in an Atmos theatre. Absolutely incredible sound design but massively loud. The film lost sound twice and blew a speaker from the sound system being over stressed. Dune pushed state of the audio to its limits and it was awesome.
I watched Interstellar in analogue IMAX. I have never seen anything as incredible. 5 mins before the end of the movie the film reel broke, the projection stopped and they switched to IMAX digital after a brief wait. I was lucky to be able to compare Digital vs Analogue IMAX and the difference in quality between the two fornats was insane.
I work in a movie theater. What really interesting is, the movie file itself for IMAX is often a lot smaller than even a standard 2k format. They seem to have better compression than any other format.
I would say imax because I took my friend to a DOLBY CINEMA and said he wouldn’t have known a difference if they hadn’t shown a comparison before the movie started
The theater I go to most of the time only has one option (unless they are showing it in 3D which I can't see due to vision problems). All 5 theaters in the cinema use "Barco laser projection" so the only difference is between the one with the massive screen or the 4 with the smaller screens. They dont have any of the Dolby stuff unfortunately (which is a pitty since Dolby Atmos in a properly set up theater is way better than regular surround sound audio)
And Dolby usually is a better choice than IMAX. Better sound and visuals. IMAX is usually LieMAX where it’s a smaller than the full IMAX screen and the sound is just turned up to 11. Dolby is clean audio.
@@namgyallharipa8206 If you go with AMC A list. 20 bucks a month for 3 movies a week. One dolby ticket basically covers the cost. Its called being smart with money ;).
Pixar makes movies to add contributions to the cinematic world. Toy Story 3 was supposed to be the final film of the franchise in 2010, until 4 years later John Lasseter had a crazy "what if?" situation with the Toy Story world. He couldn't stop thinking about it and he eventually had to make a secretive screenplay treatment with the other writers. Pixar is extremely strict with sequels because they feel as though creating them totally ruins the magic of the initial film (which is why Ratatwoille or Wall-E 2 won't ever exist) . They only create movies unless there is heart behind them. If anything, Pixar wants to make you cry and witness something heartwarming more than they want your money.
The big problem is when theaters take existing regular auditoriums and "upgrade" them to Dolby or IMAX. The improved picture and sound really don't make that big of a difference when you're watching it on a tiny screen. A true IMAX screen is 100 feet wide, but there are theaters passing off 50 foot wide screens as IMAX. Also, I've found Dolby's bass below the seat to be incredibly annoying and distracting.
I learned so much more than I was expecting to with this video. EXCELLENT work, INSIDER. Thank you for this. I thought people were going to theaters less and less. I'm learning that the theater industry is still very much alive and stronger than ever. I haven't been to a theater in over a decade (when I was 20 or so)!
My city use to have Real IMAX til the company decided to get a downgraded Imax projector and a slightly smaller screen . I noticed it when i saw Far from Home
You should talk about 4DX and IMAX SAPHIRE which are offered by VOX cinemas in Dubai. They are the absolute cinema experience. As a matter of fact VOX cinemas are the best. Especially IMAX SAPHIRE
Malak Potter well my friend VOX cinemas is also in Saudi Arabia or at least jeddah I haven’t been in the cinema but I heard it was a fantastic experience
I allllways pick Dolby whenever the option is available at AMC! I just love how grand the sounds and I think the visuals are very vibrant and just pulls me in! And the beginning Dolby intro at the start before the movie is always fun for me too! It's a treat every time I see a movie ^^
I just watched Across the Spider-Verse in Dolby - my first time in a Dolby theater. It's a game-changer. Not only was the sound phenomenal but the picture was indeed super crisp. Definitely a greater and more complete experience than IMAX.
Our local amc barely has any showings for the new releases in the “standard” format, essentially forcing you to pay more per ticket. I don’t mind if it’s Dolby, but the 3d I mind since I don’t want to watch it in that format, and most others don’t either.
very well explained, now this is quality info unlike other vids that sound like rubbish when explaining things. I think 3_D isnt as popular because people prefer the in ur face pop up effects that would pop out of the screen rather than just in depth look. I think having both in depth and pop out effects without the screen looking dim when wearing the glasses would be nice. I do like wearing glasses and nothing wrong with the look and feel of the plastic glasses, its just sucks it dims the screen.
James Cameron is working on a theater system for glassesless 3D. And like a lot of things that also depends on the filmmaker. If you get a director that doesn't really care much for the 3D then it's going to suck. It could also depend on the theater you have. A lot of theaters only have their bulbs at 50% to save on lifespan. If the theaters do things correctly and you won't really notice much of a difference in the image brightness.
Dolby Atmos isn't just more speakers for more accurate sound location. It's using all the speakers in tandem to simulate a soundsource in 3d space. Previously, multiple channel speaker setups either have the Left/right/back/back left/ back right/ Top right/ etc. either ALL ON or ALL OFF, meaning that if the theatre had 8 Left channel speakers and the sound was going front to back on the left side, the speakers would be ALL ON, while with Atmos the left channel speakers would be producing sound one at a time, maybe two, maybe three, depending on where the sound is, its size, and its volume. That's why they often demo a fly buzzing around before the movie starts. This makes it really scalable. It works whether you have a 5.1 sound system at home or up to 128 speakers in a theatre.
Stop using words like LieMAX. IMAX doesn't just mean 70mm. It can also mean projection and sound by IMAX themselves, Having said that, you are more likely to have a better viewing experience than a standard screen because of the IMAX quality control.
Im just here trying to figure out which format i should see AVATAR: The way of water in. The descriptions online dont do a good job of telling you exactly what youre in for and i was wondering why one show of the film was in 3D priced at like 13.99 and another showing at the same time also in 3D comes out at 15.99 theyre both literally the same 3D format from the looks of it. Imax has 2 different 3D listings as well. Can anyone explain why theres 2 prices for the same times for the same format?
3:50 As far as I am concerned, any digital IMAX projection is LieMax. If I can’t get a seat behind the front half of the theater seats (which are hundreds of seats) then I can count all the pixels even on an 8K projection. And digital features are rarely shot and mastered on 8K, usually just 4K, 6K, 2K, and sometimes even 1080p that’s then cropped through the film editing process. So a lot of the time we are just watching an upscaled movie, stretched wider than normal. On a home HDTV that’s fine, but on a giant screen sitting close up I sometimes experience a screendoor effect. So it’s often better to see it on standard. On film, that’s a different story, then I’ll feel like I can see every pore on a face and every grain of sand and that’s it’s higher res than reality. 70mm film or bust!
THIS... the fact that I will never see this in IMAX again baffles me... everytime I purchase a new cutting edge tv, the first thing I watch is this movie.
I used to work at a theater and ours had a real 6 story IMAX screen but other theaters even in the same company did not. Their IMAX screens were half the size, make sure to check if you can cause either way its $20.
If you watch Dunkirk closely the black bars will appear and disappear in the middle , thats where they changed the way they shot the film, imax and standard
I enjoy both IMAX and Dolby but for me personally, I prefer Dolby. The sound is just so perfect and the images are much better that I take Dolby as an ride at an theme park. It’s that awesome.
I recently saw Oppenheimer at the Dallas IMAX. Let me tell you, it was the soundtrack coming through their speakers that made it a whole new film, from when I had seen it a few weeks earlier in standard digital!!!!
Thank you. Very informative because if I do treat friends and myself to a movie, I try for the best but can’t afford the real IMAX theatre. Great content.
Names the video "Why are there so many movie theater formats" and proceeds to whisper a 9-minute long ad for AMC IMAX and AMC Dolby. That's pure quality right here.
*Movie Tip:* Want to see Dolby or IMAX but don't want to spend the $20 on a singular ticket, go during matinee hours and it drops from $20 to $14 which is the price of standard tickets not during matinee times
Or get an AMC A-List subscription whose monthly was actually cheaper than a single standard IMAX movie ticket when I signed up last year. You can see any movie with that three times a week including and it covers screenings that retail for more than the monthly subscription.
At my local cinema there's a room called the "Imax atmos 3d dolby seround room" and it costs the same as the standard one but it's clearly an imax screen with dolby seround (its huge)
Me watching UA-cam early in the morning in the same room as my sleeping mom: "I sure am glad this video is naturally quiet. It's almost as if he's whispering." Me after the realisation: "Wait, why is he whispering?"
Omnimax is the best though. The screen is a giant dome surrounding you and the speakers are in the wall and they are amazing. By far the best film experience
Fun fact. Yes Dolby projectors are 4K capable but most content is only 2K and dual projectors does not mean twice the resolution. It’s used for contrast and light.
In my country there’s only 2D (standard) 3D, 4D and IMAX, i think the Dolby depends on the cinema you go and the movie you are watching you can’t choose that
Important to note that “70mm IMAX” refers to the width of the image on the negative and positive print. Since the film strip is 65mm wide and is run through the camera (and projector) horizontally it creates room for a wider image but not a taller image. Also modern releases on “70mm IMAX” don’t have an audio track on the film from what I understand but a separate storage device that sync up through the projection system like an optical disc. There’s some UA-cam videos that show this very thing.
In the UK VUE cinemas are rolling out their once ‘premium’ seats as standard. I think that’s what will convince the general public to come to them instead of new sound and protection systems. It’s more tangible
The imax in philly is the best one imo, it’s in the franklin institute and showed movies and exhibits before imax was popular. It’s shaped like a globe and it feels like you’re moving
4d is good for movies like Jurassic world etc But for action movies, which are more frequent 4d doesn't worth for the pay Also 3d ,these days is reducing the contrast or brightness of the movie I may have gone into some shit theatre but I say end game and captain Marvel without 3d glasses cause it's all dark Also the real 3d scenes ( like things right into our face etc )are very few and sometimes none So now it won't matter if it's 3d
Regular 5.1 or 7.1 theaters do just that all those speakers on the side and behind you play the same thing, even though there's speakers all over the theater it's only 5 speakers and a subwoofer. Dolby Atmos has each speaker play sounds independently, it's a true "surround sound" it can go up to 64.2 (that's 64 speakers & there's two subwoofers sometimes) maybe even more I'm not entirely sure. The coolest experience with Dolby Atmos for me was Godzilla: King of the Monsters, watching the scene from the human perspective and hearing Godzilla and roaring above you was amazing.
This is one of the most informative UA-cam videos I've ever seen. Thank you! Also there's another option called "Screen X". Anyway, I just booked an IMAX ticket for The Flash which I'll watch this Friday!
You also get IMAX and 4dx combined. Also a non-popular format called Screen X. The sides of the wall have screens as well but they are pretty distracting
Hyderabad Imax is a big screen but it's not imax projection because Prasad's didn't have enough money to pay royalty to imax... So now they have normal projection slightly stretched which doesn't even cover the entire screen and they call it "big screen" which is basically a rip-off
@harshit channel - before any movie starts you might have noticed that they show one slide which says "this is not an imax projection" because if they don't do it they have to face legal consequences from imax for false advertising
No wonder Dolby was so expensive when I watched Call of the Wild with the vibrating seats. I try my hardest to get the auditorium to myself, so I go the latest/last screening on Thursday night. I got the whole auditorium when I saw The Lego 2 movie in 3D as well as The Invisible Man.
I think any versions of IMAX is still good. I don’t have any 1.43 screens nearby but do have the 1.90 ones. Even those fill the screen more than regular cinemas so honestly they’re all good
I'm in Canada, and we only have one theatre chain, with 2-3 options, all of which are quite expensive. All this is still pretty cool. Actually, I've only seen Dolby Atmos in my phone settings. Apparently my Samsung phone works with over 30 speakers, although I have no idea why you'd be using a phone if you had that many speakers.
I think it would be awesome if they mixed IMAX and Dolby

When watching IMAX, make sure the movie was "shot" on a IMAX camera or else the movie won't fit the whole screen.

I disagree that imax sucks
Dolby Atmosphere is worth the $20 ticket. I live in Vegas.
I really hope AMC never gets rid of A-List
IMAX is always worth it when it is a Nolan picture.
Stop using words like LieMAX. IMAX doesn't just mean 70mm. It can also mean projection and sound by IMAX themselves, Having said that, you are more likely to have a better viewing experience than a standard screen because of the IMAX quality control.

Fun fact. Yes Dolby projectors are 4K capable but most content is only 2K and dual projectors does not mean twice the resolution. It’s used for contrast and light.
It sounds like it’s the middle of the night and he doesn’t want to wake up his roomates
In my country there’s only 2D (standard) 3D, 4D and IMAX, i think the Dolby depends on the cinema you go and the movie you are watching you can’t choose that
Same
The movie times and theaters your showing are where I watch movies in Knoxville,TN. Which is where Regal cinemas started and is headquartered.
8:02 *I'm not quite sure what is going on, but where are the cameraman's legs?*
he's sitting on a chair, it was mounted to the rig
@@albertwinawan594 Ohhhh...
Important to note that “70mm IMAX” refers to the width of the image on the negative and positive print.
Since the film strip is 65mm wide and is run through the camera (and projector) horizontally it creates room for a wider image but not a taller image.
Also modern releases on “70mm IMAX” don’t have an audio track on the film from what I understand but a separate storage device that sync up through the projection system like an optical disc. There’s some UA-cam videos that show this very thing.
$18 for one ticket imma see it in format "torrent" they keep playin
I always go Dolby. Better sound is a no-brainer for me. Additional price is not an issue.
In the future there will be 360° projectors with 360° speakers
Like Kanye’s cruel summer movie just without the 360 projection..
That's actually kind of an old technology called circle vision. It was made by Disney and was mostly just used for theme parks
It would suck tbh. "HEY LOOK RIGHT THERE'S A FIGHT"
"Where?!"
"Nvm u missed it"
In the UK VUE cinemas are rolling out their once ‘premium’ seats as standard. I think that’s what will convince the general public to come to them instead of new sound and protection systems. It’s more tangible
I love Dolby, but the sound system messes with my body for the first 5 minutes until I get used to it. It is intense.
The imax in philly is the best one imo, it’s in the franklin institute and showed movies and exhibits before imax was popular. It’s shaped like a globe and it feels like you’re moving
We have 4d. Its just like those rides however a movie long.
Get with the times people
@DINEI NUNES
I'd say it's more dumb than 3d
It’s not
Go to a movie in 4d they reply back to me.
4d is good for movies like Jurassic world etc
But for action movies, which are more frequent 4d doesn't worth for the pay
Also 3d ,these days is reducing the contrast or brightness of the movie
I may have gone into some shit theatre but I say end game and captain Marvel without 3d glasses cause it's all dark
Also the real 3d scenes ( like things right into our face etc )are very few and sometimes none
So now it won't matter if it's 3d
Geni Thank you.
Finally I understood several things about all these formats ... thanks
I actually thought he was saying Dobby instead of dobley 😂🤦🏻♀️😂
POTTERHEAD!!
It's...Dolby...
Regular 5.1 or 7.1 theaters do just that all those speakers on the side and behind you play the same thing, even though there's speakers all over the theater it's only 5 speakers and a subwoofer. Dolby Atmos has each speaker play sounds independently, it's a true "surround sound" it can go up to 64.2 (that's 64 speakers & there's two subwoofers sometimes) maybe even more I'm not entirely sure. The coolest experience with Dolby Atmos for me was Godzilla: King of the Monsters, watching the scene from the human perspective and hearing Godzilla and roaring above you was amazing.
0:33 far from home
The only reason I came here is so I know how I can watch no way home. 😂😂😂
This is one of the most informative UA-cam videos I've ever seen. Thank you! Also there's another option called "Screen X".
Anyway, I just booked an IMAX ticket for The Flash which I'll watch this Friday!
Thanks. Very informative and simple explanation. While not too in depth but enough for average people to understand
You also get IMAX and 4dx combined.
Also a non-popular format called Screen X. The sides of the wall have screens as well but they are pretty distracting
I didn't know that. What's the format called? I've only watched most of the movies in 4DX.
The only thing I know about Dolby
*ALL AROUND YOU*
Me: I'm sorry did you say something bro?
Bro: What? That's not me.
Me: *W T F*
Nail it 😂
I remember watching a movie on 34th street at AMC at Dolby the seat moved with the sound it was amazing.
This guy whispering makes me feel like at any moment he's going to tell me the secret formula
This is such a good video, it really went into my head, I feel prepared to sell this to my family.
Watched Lion King in IMAX 3D and not disappointed lol
Is Dolby vision HDR from dolby cinema. Is it still brighter and stuff then the new lazer at amc?
Dude, I can barely hear you. Stop whispering or lower the music volume. Otherwise, good video.
2:16 "Fire becomes FIRE"
Wow take my money...
In Hyderabad Prasad's Imax (World's Biggest Imax 3d Screen 72ft high / 95ft wide ).
Ticket costs for new movie around 300rs that around ($4-5).
Hyderabad Imax is a big screen but it's not imax projection because Prasad's didn't have enough money to pay royalty to imax... So now they have normal projection slightly stretched which doesn't even cover the entire screen and they call it "big screen" which is basically a rip-off
@@TheOptimusMeridius y
@@harshitgupta7551 They stopped paying money to IMAX. So they took away the projector in 2014. They still market it as IMAX though.
@harshit channel - before any movie starts you might have noticed that they show one slide which says "this is not an imax projection" because if they don't do it they have to face legal consequences from imax for false advertising
No wonder Dolby was so expensive when I watched Call of the Wild with the vibrating seats. I try my hardest to get the auditorium to myself, so I go the latest/last screening on Thursday night. I got the whole auditorium when I saw The Lego 2 movie in 3D as well as The Invisible Man.
4DX is by far the best movie experience out there
I think any versions of IMAX is still good. I don’t have any 1.43 screens nearby but do have the 1.90 ones. Even those fill the screen more than regular cinemas so honestly they’re all good
In Indonesia, IMAX, 2D and Dolby Atmos theater cost at the same price level
yes its the same, also 3D. But not IMAX iirc.
But still, it's dirt cheap compared to american ticket price.
How can i get to know whether my cinema is real IMAX or just LieMAX, i mean does cinema XXI is a real IMAX?
Is the whole movie shot in IMAX aspect ratio format inside the theaters or just selected sequences from the film?
Everything still looks crap since I’m watching this on my 4 year old phone
Dolby is the format to go with. Seriously it’s worth every penny!
I used to know a girl that only watch in 3D. It was a pain.
Ahh I see this video is using the new Dolby Whisper format! I can’t wait for it in theaters!
I'm in Canada, and we only have one theatre chain, with 2-3 options, all of which are quite expensive. All this is still pretty cool. Actually, I've only seen Dolby Atmos in my phone settings. Apparently my Samsung phone works with over 30 speakers, although I have no idea why you'd be using a phone if you had that many speakers.
Am I the only one who found that the presenters voice is so comforting and listenable??
In the Philippines, Movies in the Theater cost like $5
They do a bunch of security checks tho just for a movie
*$4 even in some cities..
In croatia they have dolby and imax mixed so you have the best audio + imax but i dont know if its laser
He sounds like he's trying to talk after running the Pacer Test.
I've never actually gone to a movie theater before so this is a lot to take in
Dolby sound is also nice
So is the full Imax movie ratio available on home video?
