Today, I went to see Order of the Phoenix at the IMAX theatre in the West-Ed Mall. They had remastered the print specially. This was a relief as the CG on Goblet of Fire was painfully obvious on a screen twice the usual size, when I saw that on an IMAX - I think Ray Harryhausen would have done a better job.
Also, they did the Ministry Battle sequence in 3D, so it was a case of don the funny glasses with the polarizing lenses. All in all, it was scarily immersive. Though a 40 foot Richard Griffiths/Vernon in dribling, spluttering outrage mode is something I'm going to try hard to forget.
Oh yes... as this was an afternoon, school-day showing, near the end of the run, there where seven people there. The ticket chappie said if I had gone to the 12pm show, I could have had an IMAX to myself.
