FAT32 SHAMER posted:speaking of 2001, does anyone remember what old movie it was where they venture into a black hole? I remembered it the other day but I’m pretty sure it’s not the 1979 one. I can’t find a clip of them going through the black hole and just remember it being super trippy and weird, but I also don’t remember the android slave stuff either was it altered states? it's not a space movie tho

one of the big selling points of marvel movies (and all superhero/scfi/special effects blockbuster films) is that they are supposed to bring the sort of big screen spectacle that you can only see in a proper movie theater (and not just wait for it to show up on streaming) having the "big screen spectacle" look like absolute rear end when seen on the big screen strikes me as not the wisest move

the last two movies i saw that i felt absolutely deserved the theater picture and sound, and benefited from it, were top gun 2 and dunc. marvel movies aren't breathtaking like those two films were. they're just a noisy colorful mess. watch them on your tv at home and it's a lot easier to track what's going on.

Hoping they finish rebuilding the imax near me by the time dunc 2 comes out. Also hope they do a double-header with dunc 1, that'd be sick

i'm crossing my fingers that the imax i can walk to is back open before dunc 2 comes out since i'd rather go there than the one i have to drive an hour and pay $15 to park at

my gf wants to watch dunc but i'm trying to convince her that it's worth holding out until it's shown again in imax. gently caress was that the best imax experience since fury road

imax is lame especially when the movie doesn't even fill the screen go dolby cinema

imax is great when the film was shot in imax (or at least 65mm with some other process) otherwise meh. it's just a movie theater

I hope the good theater near me 1.) still exists and 2.) does a rep run on dune the first before the second one comes out since I watched it at home

the licensing status of hong kong movies seems to just be all over the place, I think during the vhs/dvd/ days they just sold the rights to whomever's check didn't bounce

the score is famously just random bits of classical music Kubrick used to get the mood right while editing. there was supposed to be a bespoke score added later but he decided to release the classical. the score was also eventually finished and released separately
