That's weird. I had thought since they were going back to the negative etc. that all the changes and CGI shot would be nowhere...but the snake reflection was gone on the 35mm. It did have the original cliff shot however, and I didn't notice any problems with the DC shot. That may be due to the over-processing done to blow the film up to 6K for Digital IMAX because I imagine they had to do a lot of scrubbing to eliminate the inherent qualities of the 1981 stock.

I don't see how this is better than the 35mm which is cheaper to see, clearer but sadly much more limited in release. Heck, you could even see their attempts to cover the damage done to the Tanis dig sequence.

Q: Did anybody see the snake reflection in IMAX? Minor quibble, but I hoped it would be back.

Also, no one by any chance ever saw the 70mm version did they? Just curious.
