AMC and IMAX are on Aziz Ansari's shit list. Ansari (the guy from The Office knockoff Parks and Rec) ripped AMC and IMAX on his blog after seeing Star Trek (by the way, it's awesome) at an AMC theater in Burbank. He dropped an extra $5 to see the flick on IMAX, but the screen was barely bigger than a normal one.
Here's his graphic:
Basically IMAX is whoring out their brand name and trying to trickThat isn't he only problem with the IMAX Digital Screens. Slash Film says they're also a much lower resolution.people. These new "IMAX" theatres are really just nice digital screens
with good sound, but they ARE NOT IMAX, in that they don't have the
huge 72 ft gigantic screen which people would expect. However, they

REGAL, AMC, AND IMAX - YOU ARE LIARS!
Boycott them. Fuck them for taking advantage of people and charging them $5 extra.

completely different characters, completely different story, and doesn't even fully commit to Office's pseudo-documentary aesthetic....by your logic all documentaries are a knockoff of "Nanook of the North"
And Aziz Ansari is awesome.
