My nephew only watches movies in a small window on his laptop. I said "wow, you're a real cinephile, huh?". He replied with "yeah if that's a portmanteau of cinema and defile."

I came to post an image from this scene as well. I see that's been taken care of.

I gotta give the showrunners credit. "Dinner Party" was both the most cringe-inducing episode as well as one of the best of the series. That's really hard to achieve.

What is this shit with IMAX in The Odyssey etc? Can an American explain us?

If they need a new ratio why they don't make it a new standard?

My CRT TV back then was 4:3 but for some reason it was too square for the modern industry..

[–] RogueAozame@programming.dev 9 points 1 day ago (2 children)

First off theres like 4 different versions of IMAX I'm not gonna get into the nitty gritty of each one and just talk about the relevant one. "True" IMAX is a proprietary film standard that needs a specific projector, screen, film, and theater size to be properly displayed. The projectors are no longer manufactured and there are an extremely limited amount of true IMAX theaters in the world like double digits limited. The big draw for IMAX for someone like Nolan and viewers is how much detail on a massive screen you can get. As to why they dont make a new standard theres a meme you can search for that summarizes when you make a new "better" standard it just becomes a standard. 16:9 is afaik a middle ground standard that most industries have settled on. Aspect ratios are a complicated topic with a lot of subjective expression especially in the world of cinema. In my opinion the outrage is a nothing burger cinema is art if Nolan wants to display it a certain way its his prerogative if someone feels that it diminishes the experience for them imo just dont watch it. They can also complain its none of my business what people do I just find it a bit ridiculous to complain about.

the most common type of IMAX nowadays is "just" running two 4k laser digital projectors, overlapping eachother so you get double the pixel density, at a much better contrast, and at 60fps.

Unfortunatly, that's still less than half the resolution of the "old" 70mm horizontal film projector. But it gets rid of the absurd arc-lamp they have in the film projectors, which would be the envy of ww2 searchlight operators.

I've been working my way through it via YouTube Shorts. It honestly doesn't feel as epic as everyone says, to me.

Reminder that he didn't give a fuck about controlling outbreaks of pre vaccine COVID and that he wanted to force people to see Tenet in cinemas.

You know, jam hundreds of people into a closed room for two and a half hours so that you can have super spreader events multiple times a day.

I watched that shit on my phone while sick in bed. Thank you for reminding me that all his films deserve the same treatment.

Watching the Odyssey on the smallest TV you could find on the set Backrooms is really the only way to truly see the film exactly how Nolan originally intended. Unfortunately many of us will have to settle for the profoundly worse experience of going to our local theater or streaming it in our living room.
