Varsity was using masking on all their screens when I was there during TIFF last fall. If that's true, sad to hear.

any one want to comment on the Dolby Atmos mix? I've been hearing it's a pedestrian (i.e, 'not great') mix. It seems like the Atmos mixes for Marvel films range from pointlessly sloppy ('Iron Man 3') to great ('Captain America: Winter Soldier') [the latter I of course missed - damn it]

I'll chime in on the 12-channel (IMAX-laser mix) after I see it next Monday night.

The Cinerama is single projection laser.
interesting - since I just got a Facebook message from them saying they have dual Christie 4K laser projectors

Jonathan, you are right (I was incorrect), the Seattle Cinerama uses dual 6P Christie laser projectors.

so I saw this, this afternoon at Udvar Hazy - both the image and sound were top notch (as it should be since IMAX is touting the crap out of laser and the 12-channel sound aspect).

as for the movie - eh... lot of action, rather soulless and perfunctory - it was okay, but not as good as the first Avenger's movie.
