I Finally Saw GOF in IMAX!

[starjackson1]

Well folks, I never thought it would happen. I missed GOF at the IMAX
theater at the Air & Space Museum in downtown D.C. when it played
there the last two weeks of December.  On Friday I discovered that GOF
was also playing at the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum Annex in
Dulles, Virginia!

A coworker and I went to see the 5 p.m. show today.  I have to echo
someone here who stated that after seeing GOF in IMAX, would a regular
movie screen ever do for a HP film again?  

Movies like GOF are simply made to be seen on the IMAX screen.  The
richness of detail of the Hogwarts castle was breathtaking.  Of
course, watching Harry battle the dragon in IMAX was spectaular - but
I was equally impressed with the graveyard scene on the tall screen. 
The impact of the two wands coming together and Voldemort's face as
Harry escaped yet again - powerful.  

But for me, what was even more moving and had such an impact was the
chaos at the Quidditch World Cup.  It was more frightening then on a
regular sized screen.  

Another thing which was interesting with IMAX - I could hear the
dialog much better.  Little things said that I simply could not pick 
up the first three times I saw this film, but everything was crystal
clear to my ears in IMAX.  The sound system just seemed to be better.

I have to wonder why some movie theaters don't try to have one IMAX
screen available.  Sure, they must be expensive, but films like HP,
Spiderman, Batman, Star Wars, The Fantastic 4, etc., would do
beautifully on IMAX, as would something like "March of the Penguins".
   I think this is an idea whos time has come!

I also wanted to ask a question: is GOF the only HP film that has been
shown in an IMAX theater?  

Thanks!
