IMAX vs Dolby Cinema vs XD: Which Movie Theater is Best for You?

[@BowBowSiwa]

Dolby and IMAX need to collaborate and give us the best experience

[@vgmaster9]

Along with Samsung. Very tall and wide IMAX screen with Dolby Vision HDR, 48 FPS HFR, and 16k micro LED. That along with Dolby Atmos, vibrating comfy leather recliners with heating, dine-in, and the option for 3d.

​@@vgmaster9f the dine in. It only ruins the movie for actual movie enthusiasts

[@jasonw2786]

A lot of this is theater dependent. Where I live, my AMC has the smaller IMAX Digital (LIEMAX) with the old, hard seats compared to the newer Dolby Cinema with the recliner seats. No contest. I always get the Dolby Cinema tickets for new movies when they come out. Great use of AMC A-List. There is a true 15/70 IMAX screen somewhat close to me, but those seats are even harder and older. So, I just stick with the Dolby Cinema and am very happy.

[@bradgraves86]

Me too. Dolby cinema is the best.

@@lashercollette88 There's fake imax and true imax.

[@Hokie11]

@@lashercollette88 most “IMAX” theaters are fake and coined LIEMAX. Most of these are smaller than the traditional IMAX screens and use digital projection instead of laser projection. So basically the quality just isn’t as good as an actual IMAX theater even though it’s called IMAX.

[@RK-jp4xe]

Dolby Vision and Atmos in the theater is nearly perfect to me. Plus those comfy recliners are a plus. Dolby cinema for the win.

[@WillShrop]

At my theater, it's always Dolby. The PQ difference is noticeable and the screen size compared to the row we usually sit is perfect. Plus the seats in Dolby are more comfy for sure.

[@Laerrus999]

XD is the way to go in my area as the closest 70mm IMAX is over 300 miles away. I made the mistake of seeing Oppenheimer on IMAX digital, while their sound quality was great, the seats were very uncomfortable and it got way too hot inside the theater. We have seen recent blockbuster films like Ready Player One, Bladerunner 2049, Dune I and II, Avatar II, and The Northman on XD and all were very enjoyable experiences. Excellent picture, good sound, comfortable seating and air temperature. Our Cinemark turns all the lights off during the movie, you might want to file a complaint with your theater.

[@mythoti]

When I worked for Cinemark a few years back we had similar issues with our D-box seats where sometimes some of them wouldn't load right at the beginning of the movie, had it happen when I went to see Justice League, all you have to do is call the theater and let the person at the ticket desk know it's not working and what seat your in and they'll radio the booth to let them know to reset your seat, usually boots it right up afterwards, btw love the crazy sideways goatee!

[@moongu]

Dolby Cinema for the comfy, plush, and reclining chairs at AMC. Can’t stand the stadium style stiff seats of IMAX.

[@bob_cherhoniak]

My wife won’t go to a theater that doesn’t have comfortable seats. We have an IMAX near us and haven’t tried it for that reason. We saw Top Gun Maverick at Cinemark and enjoyed it. I noticed the film grain a little. We saw Jurassic World Dominion at Regal in RPX and enjoyed the visual and audio but the luxury leather seats don’t recline much. We’ll be going back to Cinemark XD for Thor, unless my wife wants to try out IMAX. AMC is not close enough to me.

[@JesusMartinez-mk6fc]

FOMO, you're lucky as the IMAX theater in Irvine, according to their website, is equiped with the IMAX with Laser that produces true 4K images. Mind you, this is a digital projection system, so it can't show traditional 15-70mm IMAX movies on film but it can project to the traditional oversized IMAX screens with the original 1.43 aspect ratio. IMAX 15-70mm film projectors are a species on the verge of extinction due to the high cost of film production and distribution versus digital projection. I saw Dune twice at the same Cineplex theater complex in Canada, both in regular IMAX and under their UltraAVX banner. Since there are no theaters in the major metropolitan area where I live that are equiped with the IMAX with Laser 4K digital projection system, my first screening was on a regular IMAX digital projection system with a 1.90 aspect ratio that is substantially inferior to the former according to the specifications. I felt that the picture was of the soft side and lacked some sharpness and detail while being overly dark. The regular IMAX digital projection system uses two 2K projectors where the two 2K images are projected superimposed on each other with a half-pixel offset to increase the perceived resolution to approximately 2.9K. So much for the advertised "The IMAX Experience", that's what has come to be referred to as "LieMAX" by some people. The Cineplex UltraAVX theaters on the other hand use Cristie 4K digital projectors. This second 4K screening on Christie definitely produced a sharper picture with higher brightness helping to bring out more detail, specially in those darker scenes, which there are plenty on this movie. Where the IMAX screening was superior was on the sound front with deeper and richer bass; the UltraAVX theater unfortunately not being equipped with an Atmos sound system

[@cinemapigeon4898]

I'm having a similar situation for Avatar 2. I have a true massive IMAX theater, 60x75 foot screen, real film IMAX projector (which isn't relevant for A2 and most movies), but older Xenon dual 2k projectors. I saw original Avatar at the IMAX, it was a great experience, but since then there has been major Cinemark renovations/new Cinemark theaters. Cinemark XD has dual 4k projectors and recliners (IMAX no recliners, and I think recliners may be big for a 3 hour 10 minute movie), still a large screen, 70ish feet wide but definitely shorter than the IMAX. IMAX will probably have better sound and a bit larger although softer image. I think the newer XD projectors will be have better brightness (big for 3D glasses), contrast, and all that jazz. My XD theaters are pretty dark, so I don't think washed out blacks should be much of an issue. I think the overall experience will be better with the XD.

[@vote4ulvio]

Bass bass bass. I'll go for IMAX

[@robertobuatti7226]

Thank you for highlighting this topic, as a huge movie lover since I was a little kid in the 80's everytime I go to the theaters I think to myself what would be the most immersive theater experience visually and auditory, and I always come to IMAX would be really immersive with that giant screen and the Dolby Atmos surround sound.

[@mykal.7424]

I know Cinemark XD has gotten an upgrade in it's theater here in Cincinnati, Ohio a few years ago (THX certification )and got to visit the theater last week seeing Alien Romulus and i was totally impressed with it's sound quality. XD use to be lower volume and now the sound is right there with IMAX. Picture was good and yes it's still with black bars at the top and bottom . Films like Romulus that are shot in 2.39 : 1 or 2.35 : 1 you will get those bars . Now if the film is shot 1.85 : 1 it will fill the screen. Usually if a film is formatted in IMAX you won't get bars. I feel IMAX still has a slight edge in picture quality . The best movie theater (to me) in the city belongs to Showcase Cinema. They have IMAX which I've been to many times and we have AMC theaters with Dolby Vision and IMAX in the same building. But Showcase Cinemas has a few very large auditoriums that the screens are so big and wide you'll very rarely get any bars of any kind regardless of the aspect ratio. and the sound rivals IMAX. It's without question my favorite movie theater . One auditorium particular is a variation of traditional 70mm, not one time have I've experienced has had black bars. in that auditorium. It's my go to Cinema experience .

[@elmestengo]

Been to all of them many times. After seeing a movie at the Dolby Atmos, I prefer that theatre for every movie.

[@PlatinumSun254]

As a Cinemark Employee I can confirm that at lest a my newer Cinemark we do use Laser Projection.

[@XMegaJuni]

I never thought above this stuff when going to the theater. With gas prices today and inflation, i just pick what’s closest to me

[@KuyaArbee]

I recently went to a CINEMARK XD! and HOLYSH*T LOVE THE SOUND! especially the subwoofer! you can actually feel!!! and it wasn't even the D box seats! very impressed by Cinemark XD to be honest!

[@MetroWalt]

Dolby all the way for me. Best picture quality with the best surround system. Sound that you can feel. Not to mention the recliners at Dolby cinemas. IMAX screens are big. But their sound set up. Does not match the experience at a Dolby cinema. At my local AMC theater’s the Dolby experience is like no other. At one time IMAX was it. Not once Dolby cinemas were introduced.

[@dometweeter7093]

I've seen several movies in one of the Original Film IMAX Dome Theaters. I've seen movies at the Smithsonian Institute Laser IMAX " Black Panthers," IMAX RULES. Dolby is exceptional also, specialty 40 anniversary of The Matrix.

[@JunkerDC]

Cinemark xd does have lower sound and no masking for scope movies. I talked to them and they don't care because they told me people don't know any better so they don't have to worrie about it. but they know about it and they told me in so many words just don't come to our theater cause we are not going to do anything about it, the fader is ran on 5.0 and not 7.0 reference level I have seen it the setting before because they let me take a look at it before when ever I asked about the lower levels.

[@KuyaArbee]

okay update!!! went to a cinemark XD and now using the DBOX Seats and it's a lot of fun! Adds to the movie! really enjoyable!

[@Suspicious0ne]

I live in Canada. I was in Cali when Doctor Strange Multiverse of Madness was out. Saw it at a AMC Dolby Cinema... Holy was that an experience. I don't ever want to see a movie at a Canadian theater again. I have a 65" Sony X90J and STR-DN1080 receiver with Definitive Technology BP-20 towers, BP-2X rears, C1 center, ProMonitor 1000 heights, SuperCube SC2000 and SC4000 in a 5.2.2 set up. Sad to say watching at home is more enjoyable then in the theaters locally. I like my Dolby Vision/Atmos. Closest Dolby Cinema is across the border and a 2.5 hour drive and I'm willing to make that trip having experienced one.

[@BWM135]

Not sure about all this complaining about IMAX seating. The Digital IMAX cinema near me has full recliners as of a couple of years ago. All bit identical to what you'd find in a top end dedicated home theater. Sound is always on point. Dolby is similarly top notch, but the closest one to me is at a theater in the hood. You'll get a good experience at either. Stunned people are still screaming "Liemax!" a decade later, but whatever. I don't have a 70mm IMAX option (Most don't), but that doesn't mean I'm going to gripe, or go to a small format showing when I only get to the theater 2-3 times a year at most. Pick the best theater you've got near you and go enjoy.

[@allen9717]

Heres my take if a film is filmed specifically for imax ill watch it in Imax with laser if not dolby i did cinemark at universal orlando the sound was absolutely loud the bass was booming it was phenomenal cinemark is the underdog between the 3

The last movie theater I went to had unimpressive picture quality. Lifted blacks bars and low contrast. Even oled beat the picture quality in a dark room.

[@birgerolovsson5203]

Can't stand film grain but I love the size of IMAX so I guess that Dolby Cinema is best for me.

[@MrPopo-bd1ix]

5:00 The lights in XD theaters don't actually get dimmed or turned-off until the actual movie starts FOMO. IMAX is only worth it if the actual film was filmed in IMAX, and even then that's only if you have access to 70mm IMAX. Not all AMC theaters have Dolby equipped, many just have Prime. 19:00 XD and AMC DO NOT have the same reclining seats. In fact, many Cinemark theaters still don't have reclining seats, and the one's that do only partially recline while allowing leg-raise. Just go AMC.

[@formeitwastuesday.1515]

Sorry, but Cinemark XD isn't near me and all we have is Lie-Max (Digital Imax). For me, I do Dolby Cinema. Went to see Sonic 2 for the first time in Dolby, never could go back since it was a good mix of Imax and XD's pros.

It's 4k laser projection and the screen is tilted 15 degrees to better match the recliner tilt. It was a pretty nice viewing experience.

[@Venezuela305]

You should revisit this topic to include Regal's 4DX. Is the only non-gimik of all the crappy stuff they have been launching lately. I personally like Dolby for bright action movies, but only If I can get row E. The sound effects is the highlight, but not many movies use the back sorrouds and overhead channels. For darker movies, I prefer IMAX with Laser. It has better contrast and shadow detail, despite what Dolby says. If you can get row J, you eliminate the grain problem. 4DX is good. It just lacks a tiny bit in audio but not much. If you have ot on your area, try row E (or row F if 3D).

[@SoapNugget]

I go to all 3, since I have a Cinemark 5 mins from my house I go to XD at times, but usually I'll drive 30 mins to my AMC for IMAX and Dolby (I don't have a 70mm theater around me)

[@bherbo3943]

True IMAX is by far the best movie experience and it’s not even close. Sadly to many “IMAX” movies are shot and displayed in LIEMAX now a days. So my go to currently is Dolby Cinema. The audio reproduction is next level.

[@ccateni28]

I want real bass, not fake bass or maybe both would be good. Guess I’ll have to find an imax to see how I like it there.

[@Radarcb329]

I just went to the large laser IMAX theater and I do see that the visual projection is greatly improved over from what it was a decade ago, however will never be as good as the original 70 mm analog. The audio does not come close to matching the quality and accuracy of Dolby Atmos in an AMC Dolby Cinema. The bass is over blown and inaccurately bombastic, lacking really subsonic bass like AMC. The Dolby Cinemas have ribbon tweeters which are extremely accurate, but bass is phenomenally accurate and deep.

The XD theater I'm pretty certain depends from theater to theater, for instance the one that is nearest to me was designed with auro 3d in mind originally before atmos was even announced I think, 2013-2014, not a big issue since it translates into atmos just fine, if not better than a more intended layout zero complaints in that aspect, bass hits hard also there depending on the movie on play. Also while the seats are fine they are similar to imax without reclining. Light control at ours is better than what you described however they have these exit lights next to the screen also which does bleed onto the screen and I just wish they'd do something about that. Just little addressable things that keep it from being punching at dolby cinema for that 2nd place spot. Anyways, our XD theater is due up for an update at this point and I'm hoping for those reclining seats when they do update it. Imax I think is better though in 5.1 sound, while an array works very well at having a large sound and needed for atmos, it doesn't help with detail retrieval and imax's 5 very large full range speakers simple brute force really fine detail similar to watching something at home on nice speakers. It's not to say xd sounds bad, they are really good JBL speakers and they are large for theater speakers but those imax speakers still dwarf those and you can tell.

I hate that my dads way of doing things is if it ain’t broke don’t fix it I’ve had my tv for 10 years now I have to look at a 75 inch tv in my living room (I’m broke and live with my parents the 75 inch tv was a gift he didn’t buy it) idk if I’m being petty but I have to look at it constantly my brother has a 65 inch an I didn’t care because I never go to his room

To me dobly is the best way to go. Liemax has ruined Imax for me and only 1 theater within a 25 mile radius

8:40 cinema grain? WTF are you talking about? Maveric was filmed in 6K and mastered in 4K.

Calling CinemaScope "widescreen" just seems odd to me.
