IMAX Theater invades Cebu



The long wait is over because an IMAX Theater will going to be in SM City - Cebu very soon. Two weeks ago, when I was watching Iron Man 2, there was this ad about IMAX will soon in Cebu. After the movie, I immediately asked the lady on the ticket booth on when will be the IMAX Theater opening and she said that hopefully it will be on June, 2010.




IMAX Theater in SM Mall of Asia

WOW! this will be another exciting experience for the people of Visayas and Mindanao to see the real 3-D images of IMAX. No need to be in Manila anymore just to experience IMAX which only SM North Edsa and Mall of Asia have.

But what is the IMAX Experience?

IMAX experience captivates you in crystal clear sight and sound. It is so intense that it makes you feel like you're part of the movie. IMAX Theater screen immerses you in the center of the action. It customizes theater geometry that maximizes your field of view, putting you in the movie. Sharper images, livelier colors, massive size, and incredible depth.

Unlike with 3-D theaters that have a normal screen size which most theaters in the city have would give you limited visual of the 3-D effect.

See and experience the 3-D effect that is so real.

The screens in most IMAX Theaters are 8 stories high, but some parts of the globe, they have screens that are as high as 12 stories. Imagine the 3-D effect of these wide screens that would really blow your mind.

Bigger the screens, Larger the images, Clearer the sound

IMAX uses a different kind of projector because they use wider film frame that when it is stretched in could reach over 18 kilometers. Each is 70 mm film frame that is 10 times that the conventional 35 mm film frame used in regular cinemas.

IMAX projectors and Film frame; compare and see the difference.

IMAX Theaters are equipped with the state of the art surround sound system that keeps your senses alive. With 44 speakers that produce 14, 000 watts of power, the sound quality is so great where ever you are seated.

Latest Buzz!!!

IMAX Theater in Cebu is still under construction at the SM City - Cebu, Cinema 4. Just mark your calendar this coming June, 2010 since there are no tentative dates for its opening. I have watched movies in 3-D several times, but haven't gone to an IMAX experience. I know that this will be another sure hit in Cebu and as an attraction too. No matter how the price would cost as long as the quality is beyond comparison.
