studio stupidity aside, i’ve never understood imax. on a very basic level why are we making hoyte van hoytema walk around with that stupid fucking camera just for the movie to be majority seen on dcp. and, do audiences by and large know or care what imax is? i think they think it’s what science movies are from children’s museums of their youth. challengers is my favorite movie of last year but i saw it in imax and was like why is this an imax and also guess what the theater was empty. idk just like what are we doing just watch the fucking movie this battle over format is over
WRT people buying tickets as social protest, I’m reminded of that Silver Jews line:
“Punk rock died when the first kid said ‘Punk’s not dead!’”

I love it personally, and I think more and more audiences are paying attention to film formats.
