SO much better when it's not accompanied by an audience from hell. And congrats to the Oriental for projecting a film print for the first time without messing it up

Produced for the 1992 Seville Expo to showcase IMAX'S briefly lived "IMAX HD" system, which recorded and projected at 48 FPS. Another obvious confluence of apparatus and ideology

The first one of these in quite a while (Guardians 3 notwithstanding) that felt fully considered, coherent, and not reworked to death. That said, the project itself just isn't that interesting! Going to this felt mainly like obligation, but hopefully this bodes well for things down the pipeline

Horrendous theater experience which really sucked ass because I was looking forward to this. God I hate the suburbs. There's certainly something here but it'll take a rewatch under much better conditions before I can much judgment. That shot still hit thankfully
