IMAX DIGITAL, LASER AND EXHIBITOR PLF OPTIONS In IMAX theaters, for example, things shot with IMAX film cameras will expand vertically to fill the entire screen.
The sequences projected in IMAX 70mm really “come to life” on those screens, and vice versa for the 70mm sequences on those specific projectors. “The two formats are sort of different and I love them both,” he said. There will also be over one hundred 70mm prints (“a fabulous presentation,” Nolan said) sent to theaters around the world, with over 77 (and more to come) on sale in North America at major chains and many independent locations like the Music Box in Chicago and the AFI Silver in Washington D.C. “We’re able to do things with picture now that before we were really only able to do with sound in terms of an oversize impact for the audience-an almost physical sense of response to the film.” “We knew that this had to be the showstopper,” Nolan said.
Nolan and his effects teams recreated the blast, with all its blinding brilliance. Robert Oppenheimer, the theoretical physicist who oversaw the development of first atomic bomb during World War II, this will be especially pivotal in viewing the Trinity Test, the first detonation of a nuclear weapon.
It really is just a great way of giving people an experience that they can’t possibly get in the home.” “We put a lot of effort into shooting the film in a way that we can get it out on these large format screens.
“You rarely get the chance to really talk to moviegoers directly about why you love a particular format and why if they can find an IMAX screen to see the film on that’s great,” Nolan said. Knowing that even those words can get overwhelming and technical, Nolan went a step further: In an exclusive interview with The Associated Press, he offered a guide to his favorite formats, explaining why it matters and even where he likes to sit so that audiences don’t feel like they need a film school degree (or one in theoretical physics) before settling on a theater. That’s part of the reason why Universal Pictures has made “Oppenheimer” tickets available early for over a thousand “premium large format” (or PLF) screens, with options including IMAX 70mm, 70mm, IMAX digital, 35mm, Dolby Cinema and more. But not all big screens are created equal. It’s no secret that Christopher Nolan made “Oppenheimer” to be seen on the big screen.
