Any feedback? The “official” reviews say it is great. Just curious about the Warchant viewpoint.

According to CNN It is Cruise's first $100 million opening weekend and 55% of tickets were from people over the age of 35. Color me shocked on the last bit.Any feedback? The “official” reviews say it is great. Just curious about the Warchant viewpoint.
why would you be "colored shocked"? The original came out in the 80's.?>?????????According to CNN It is Cruise's first $100 million opening weekend and 55% of tickets were from people over the age of 35. Color me shocked on the last bit.
It was sarcasm. I should have added the /swhy would you be "colored shocked"? The original came out in the 80's.?>?????????
Wanted to go this weekend, asked the wife and she admitted she is in your boat. I guess you’re both missing that ‘loving feelin’ lol.Am I the only one who never saw the original nor had any desire to?
Didn't like the first one, but with Geddy's review, I guess I'll see it sometime soon.Went and saw it at IMAX on Sunday. Was really good. A few cheesy parts and good throwbacks to the original. Aircraft type stuff was generally spot on with only a few Iron Eagle type things. A must see for sure.
I read that Cruise demanded that he be in it. I believe he talks through a keyboard.Saw it last night…kudos to Val Kilmer(Iceman)…if you know his real life situation you have to admire him participating in the film.
I won’t spoil it for you but to me it was one of the more powerful moments of the film.I read that Cruise demanded that he be in it. I believe he talks through a keyboard.
Which IMAX tho. I was a projectionist at the IMAX at the CLC back in the day and as someone who learned the INS and outs of IMAX theatres, the one at AMC didn't compare.Went and saw it at IMAX on Sunday.

In PCB. I don’t think it’s AMC though.Which IMAX tho. I was a projectionist at the IMAX at the CLC back in the day and as someone who learned the INS and outs of IMAX theatres, the one at AMC didn't compare.
Oh word I thought you were talking about TallahasseeIn PCB. I don’t think it’s AMC though.
We had a place in high school that never carded and B&J wine coolers were always on the list. I was quite the lawbreaker and roughen in those days. 🤣as sappy as this sounds, it brought closure…geesh, hand me a Bartles and James wine cooler 🥴
i just slide my couch 3 feet forwards and try not to have the neighbors call the cops when it's epic movie night at home. dolby atmos gives me the same massive grin as my OLED.See it in the dobly immersive. Highly entertaining. Won't be the same on a TV.
That Dolby immersive experience is something else. It's not imax.i just slide my couch 3 feet forwards and try not to have the neighbors call the cops when it's epic movie night at home. dolby atmos gives me the same massive grin as my OLED.
i won't be able to recreate IMAX but i'll give it my best shot!
The one I went to had 5 or 6 coming attractions like Avatar 2, MI8 part 1, a couple of Marvel movies (yawn) and a couple I dont remember then about 15 minutes of commercials. Ticket said 1 pm but the movie didn't actually start until 1:30.random question....did your theater have any coming attractions? Mine showed a couple "turn off your phone" and "buy some popcorn" ads and went straight into the movie....don't be late!
Nope I only go there for games and to have the car serviced.Oh word I thought you were talking about Tallahassee
are you rolling a couple of different technologies together into that? dolby has atmos for immersive sound that is installed in most theaters and dolby cinema that is available in certain AMC theaters. dolby cinema rolls together doby atmos and dolby vision and upgrades the seating, adds shakers to the seats and lighting effects.That Dolby immersive experience is something else. It's not imax.
oh my...I thought I was "cutting edge" when I got surround sound :-(are you rolling a couple of different technologies together into that? dolby has atmos for immersive sound that is installed in most theaters and dolby cinema that is available in certain AMC theaters. dolby cinema rolls together doby atmos and dolby vision and upgrades the seating, adds shakers to the seats and lighting effects.
ScreenX and Barco on the other hand provide a multi-projector wrap to create a 270 degree viewing area bringing visual immersion to sound immersion.
i also use a philips hue sync box with my HT setup. i originally bought it solely to provide some rear ambiance light to relieve eye strain but it does a surprisingly good job of expanding the visual experience. i can limit it to using just the strips behind the tv and entertainment console or combine those with 8 overhead can lights.
not mine but this is essentially how it looks in operation.
Maybe mine was just saving time on opening weekend....this is my favorite part about the reserved seating...skipping all that crap. When there's a movie I want to see I don't want any glimpse of it beforehandThe one I went to had 5 or 6 coming attractions like Avatar 2, MI8 part 1, a couple of Marvel movies (yawn) and a couple I dont remember then about 15 minutes of commercials.

Yeah this was reserved seating too but still had all the BS before the movie. Ill know better next time to go 20 minutes after the start time.Maybe mine was just saving time on opening weekend....this is my favorite part about the reserved seating...skipping all that crap.

I was in the popcorn line and stepped foot into the actual theater just as the 1st note of the opening song (Danger zone) played.Yeah this was reserved seating too but still had all the BS before the movie. Ill know better next time to go 20 minutes after the start time.
Really good movie. Much better than expected my wife cried during the movie.It is a really good movie. Very well done. I was surprised at how good it was.
