I thought I’d make a thread specifically for discussing the (awesome!) 70mm print IMAX screenings since previous discussion had been scattered around in various other threads.

Anyway, I’d like to start out by asking if anyone here has seen it at the Omnimax/IMAX Dome in Saint Louis, or any of the other dome theaters that have shown it? I’d like to know how bad the distortion in the image is when projected on the dome screen. Was it really bad? Did you even notice?

I might have a chance to see this in 15/70 a second time in Saint Louis but I’m trying to figure out if it’s worth the trouble it would be to get to the theater (I won’t have a car and I’ll be way across town from the museum/theater). Part of me of course says, “absolutely! You may never get to see another Star Wars film in 70mm again!” But the other part of me says “eh… I’ve seen non dome-formatted IMAX documentaries on a dome screen before and it kind of sucked…”
