-
The much-awaited sequel to Thor’s story is going to be witnessed in full glory through the vast IMAX screens
Calling all Marvel fans out there! We know you’ve been waiting for the next chapter on your favorite character Thor’s journey to grace the big screens. Now that it’s finally here, SM Megamall IMAX Theater will give the cinema-goers a one-of-a-kind experience!
Prepared to hold on to the edge of your seats. In the movie, Thor is imprisoned on the other side of the universe without his mighty hammer, and is forced to team-up with the Hulk, Loki and new player Valkyrie to stop “Ragnarok”—the destruction of Asgard and its civilization, at the hands of the ruthless and all-powerful Hela.
Did you know that you can only see the full action exclusively on an IMAX screen? Yes, you read that right. On regular theaters, some parts of the movie are not executed well as it requires a special screen ratio that only IMAX possess.
Aside from those, there are more reasons that will definitely convince you to go watch “Thor: Ragnarok” on SM IMAX now:
IMAX exclusively features 26% more of the action than a the regular screen
With select scenes shot exclusively using an IMAX camera, the theatre has a special format
that features a 1.9:1 ratio, meaning you will get to see 26 percent more of the scene than
what you’ll see in a regular cinema. We all know how Marvel loves to hide Easter eggs in all
their films; that 26 percent can play a crucial role in the entire story of the Marvel universe.
If you’re a Marvel fan, you can’t miss out on this.
Asgard comes to life through IMAX’s vivid colors
If you’ve ever seen the imagery of Doctor Strange or the first instalment of Thor in IMAX,
you’ll easily conclude that color plays a huge role in the movie. Through psychedelic trips in
and out of different universes, there is no better way to watch Thor: Ragnarok than with
IMAX’s digital enhancement process which delivers 60% more brightness and 40% greater
contrast than what you’ll find anywhere else.
Imagine the Hulk on IMAX’s giant screen
IMAX has a wall-to- wall, floor-to- ceiling, curved screen that fills even your peripheral vision
with increased viewing angles up to an average of 70 degrees. Can you just imagine the epic
gladiator scene between Thor and the Hulk on its enormous display?
Hear the sonic boom of the Mjolnir with IMAX’s earth shattering sound
With a customized sound system that distributes sound throughout the theatre, you can
hear the krak-a- thoom of the Mjolnir to the slightest pin drop and be able to tell exactly
where it fell.
IMAX’s 3D is out-of- this world
IMAX’s 3D projector delivers unsurpassed brightness and clarity. Coupled with the screen’s
increased field of view, the results are images that jump off the screen and land right in your
lap. Slide through time and space and live like a superhero in your most immersive
experience yet.
