Thursday July 27th at 6:45pm at the "true" 70mm IMAX off Webb Chapel in Dallas.

Upset I'm going to have to go dark on this thread for a week. But that's half the fun, watching the movie and then coming back to hear Texags reactions...

Reminds me that when told my stepdad that I had seen Titanic, he asked if the boat sank.

Yep, I said.
Thanks, nothing new to see there, he said.

I think he came out ahead in that conversation.

On a somewhat smaller scale boat sinking, I remember walking out of my parents house to see The Perfect Storm and my mom goes "what a sad story, I can't believe they all died". Since I didn't have any clue about the real story at that point, I was pretty irritated. We still joke about that occasionally.

This is basically what I'm seeing for every local IMAX screening I click on from tomorrow through Sunday. The Chinese Theater even had to add 6 AM screenings. At this point I'm convinced it does $50M+ this weekend...

Lincoln Square in NYC is sold out from Thursday to Sunday, pretty much every showing.

One of the largest IMAX theaters in the world.

This is one of the things I most miss from living in New York. Saw Interstellar in this theater, amazing experience.

Cinemark 16 in Dallas is the same way, but longer. It will be August if I want to see it in 70mm with a good seat.

The multiple Sorkin/Social Network comparisons I keep seeing are the icing on the cake. I need this movie ASAP.

Why the quote marks on "true"? Something wrong with that theater?

Nothing wrong. It is the legit 70mm imax projector. One of only 2 in Texas.

Where's the other one? And what's the difference between a not "true" one and a "true" one?

I heard they've got him in there, but they just reused the footage from The Dark Night of him saying, "Some men just want to watch the world burn."

Using quotes on "true" wasn't appropriate. It is a literal 70mm IMAX screen - there is one in Dallas and one in San Antonio.

Using this site: https://www.oppenheimermovie.com/tickets/ you can find all the different formats available anywhere in the USA. Use the filter in the very top right of the screen to choose which type of projection.

Quote:

Only seventeen theaters in the United States are screening Oppenheimer in 70mm IMAX print. Two of them are in Texas: the AMC RiverCenter in San Antonio and the Cinemark XD and IMAX in Dallas. Other IMAX theaters in Texas, including the state's largest, the 84-foot screen at the Texas Spirit Theater at the Bullock Texas State History Museum in Austin, project their films digitally.

Yeah, I'm in SA and was thinking about heading to see it at the IMAX. Didn't know if that wasn't a "true" IMAX for some reason.

When I go to that tickets site, all I see are theaters in Kansas and Oklahoma with no discernable way to search by ZIP. Clearly I'm doing something wrong?

Against all odds, Oppenheimer is starting to feel like it has just a bit of that Top Gun: Maverick juice. Another war/dad movie that's getting all kinds of crazy positive buzz, bringing people to theaters who haven't been in years/months. That its opening weekend is tracking higher than Dunkirk, Interstellar, and Inception is just crazy to me. $68M as of now.
