I was sad when Jeff Goldblum didn't die. His character sucks, his dad is even worse. I actually wanted the actor playing him to die. Same with Randy Quaid, but I still feel that way about him. God damn I hate that movie.  |  IP: Logged Lyle Romer Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1400 From: Davie, FL, USA Registered: May 2002 posted 10-08-2008 02:00 PM                     quote: Brad Miller 37 times??? I assumed it was a once or twice during the movie gimmick for IMAX...but 37 times? I would've been yelling at the manager of the IMAX theater had I seen it there. That is just flat out ANNOYING Strangely you barely even notice the aspect change back to 'scope. Although the 'scope ratio in IMAX really seemed like 2:1 or so. A lot of times it went from an establishing shot in IMAX to a dimly lit interior scene so the letterbox just kind of blended in. Going from 'scope to IMAX ratio was noticeable but it was noticeable in a good way. I hope they make this an option on the Blu-ray. IMAX aspect is impressive in an IMAX theater with 60 foot tall screens. It will not be impressive pillar boxed on a widescreen TV.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 10-08-2008 06:21 PM                        It won't be pillar boxed. It will be 16:9.  |  IP: Logged
