IMAX is much better than 3D, and the 3D hype is starting to wear off big time, happy that it's not in 3D as if it was, over here, they only show it in (IMAX) 3D if it's in 3D, the cinema's here nearby don't bother in showing different formats. So if it it were in 3D, i'd hate it as i would be forced to view it in 3D, gladly, that isn't the case as it's in IMAX.
there is a 'normal' viewing too closeby, but the price difference isn't worth it to me to skip imax for it, it's about 1 buck difference, and then the cinema is old, small, smelly, and the sound quality is abismal. I'd rather do a 15 minute ride to a bigger town with a IMAX cinema (quite a big one, really) that's also having magnificient audio. I'm gonna have to reserve pretty early as it's crowded fast and the good seats get reserved online like crazy.
