What’s better than watching a movie on a screen that’s jaw dropping big and as humongous can get? In fact, the largest IMAX theatre is known to be eight storeys long! No wonder, people love the experience promised by an IMAX movie. To add to the effect, consider the fact that these screens are curved…just to allow for a periphery vision.

Every little scene, on an IMAX theatre seems larger than life. It’s commonly believed that images on an IMAX film appear 10 times larger than the ordinary 35mm screens. Thus, even though the screen’s larger than most movies screens, the quality remains crystal clear. Not to mention the state of the art digital sound.

Ever since the Lumière brothers invented the cinematograph, movie makers have always tried their best to invoke the wow factor among movie goers. IMAX takes this a step further.

Everything about IMAX is awe inspiring big. Movies made for IMAX are known to use a 15,000 watt lamp with more than 150 IMAX films in distribution. A movie maker would need special IMAX cameras to shoot the movie, special projectors to showcase the film and an IMAX trained technician who can play it for you. In fact films made on IMAX are known to be so heavy that they are carried with special equipments.

Large screen became popular in the 50’s as people started to look for alternatives to the small screen. There were plenty of other companies that tried their best to satiate the needs of movie goers looking for the big screen. But nothing ever matched the IMAX. It is indeed the most spectacular, the most inspiring and the clearest of all movie going experience.
