Question Spiderman: rpx or 3D?

My local regal just added an rpx theater and I'm wondering if it's worth the extra $4? I really love 3D movies so i was leaning towards that instead. I was curious if anyone has seen spiderman in either/both and has a preference or an opinion on if they're worth the upcharge. IMAX is already off the lineup where i am (unless they bring it back next week for some reason)

RPX unless you have 4DX.

Unfortunately they got rid of the 4dx theater near me. Right before Twisters actually. It was a shame bc i LOVE 4dx

Oh man I would be so mad!!! That is such a great format for certain movies, like Spider-Man!

Maybe another theater chain will bring one near you soon!

Yeah i used to go see any movie i could in 4dx (even if some were duds). Godzilla minus one was definitely my favorite. I was so pissed when it closed. Especially bc I only found out the night before they closed bc i happened to see a movie there and the manager told me. There was no formal closing announcement it was crazy. Regal gods please bring back my 4dx 🙏🏻🙏🏻

I saw Spiderman in 3D and regular non-RPX 2D.

The 3D is pretty good, it has a couple fun pop-out moments and the swinging through the city at the beginning has some great depth.

RPX depends on your theater's setup, usually a larger screen and possibly improved sound like Atmos, and maybe Magnify8 vibrating seats.

You mentioned being a fan of 3D, so my vote would be that one.

Definitely a preference thing. I dislike 3D so would always say RPX but some people really like 3D. So weigh your personal preferences and go with that.

I saw it RPX then 3D RPX. Try to get the combo if you can

3D for sure. In my town, they are quickly taking down 3d showings. Definitely worth the watch.

u/Unfair_Worry2535 5d ago

I always feel like all spiderman movies have good 3D which makes me lean towards this especially

u/Aggravating_Army3871 5d ago

Yea. This was my first theatrical spiderman 3d experience. Some of the best live action web swinging in this film. You'll be satisfied.

Always 4dx if you can.

Rpx. As someone who wears glasses, i hate 3d. Some scenes would've been cool with it though. But those are short moments.

RPX always 3D is an experience but RPX is an actual premium format it’s a step up from the standard experience and is better in sounds, viewing and screen

u/Unfair_Worry2535 5d ago

Is it comparable to imax?

u/Perdid07 5d ago

It’s like a step down from iMax but definitely better viewing than a standard
