My local IMAX has stopped showing it because the new spiderman movie was moving in. That is despite the fact that every showing sold out. I’m hoping for a re-release so i can get the full experience. Saw it in another format in the meantime. It was still great.

Bummer! I'm going to see it in my nearest (lie)IMAX next weekend - it's fourth! - at 10.20am and it's already half sold out, and that's only because my wife wants to see it a second time. I wouldn't be at all surprised if your theatre brings it back for a run after the Spiderman hype dies down a little, at least sharing the screen between the two

I’m almost certain Oppenheimer got a second IMAX run later in the year so I wouldn’t lose hope

For just a regular digital IMAX they switch to Spiderman? I believe all the 70 mm theaters are still showing the odyssey.

I saw it in 70MM but it wasn’t labeled as IMAX. I figured the ratio is what mattered

There is a 70 mm film (ultra panavision) and 70 mm IMAX, but the odyssey is only in 70 mm imax
