IMAX @ SM Lanang is believing

I was one of the official DavaoBloggers invited to attend the Blessing and Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony of SM Cinema Lanang and experience how fun it is to watch IMAX Lanang.

Upon entering the theatre, I received a set of popcorn and a choice of softdrink or orange juice and also my pair of 3D eyeglasses. The theater can cater 466 seats and the screen are so large it extends beyond your peripheral vision, making me feel at the center of the action. They are several times larger compared to the screens in conventional theaters. 

Some IMAX screens, like the one at IMAX Mall of Asia, stands eight stories high-allowing it to display larger that life 2D and 3D images. On top of the very large image-display, the images are also of crystal-clear quality. 

SOUND SYSTEM

The IMAX sound is producing an enhanced depth and clarity such a very realistic sound. 

3D Glasses

3d glasses are wide and big enough for my face. I keep on adjusting the glasses because it keeps on sliding on my nose.

The movie that was screened to the guests and press was the "The Avengers". The movie that's best to watch on the IMAX screen.

IMAX 3D Technology 

The 3D Imax experience is superb! The powerful cameras, special projectors, gigantic screen, steeply raked seats. The combination of these different technological innovations enables IMAX to deliver an immersive movie-watching experience. In the IMAX theatre, I'm not just a mere spectator, I become part of the movie.
