Bigger Really Is BetterEspecially watching APPOLLO 13 ON IMAXBy Madelyn MillerEvery day, my email box is filled with offers to enlarge my penis or my breasts. It is not something I ever wanted to try. But IMAX really does make a difference.
Even if you know how it ended, and you have seen this movie before, seeing it on IMAX is a whole different experience
From Academy Award® winners Brian Grazer and Ron Howard, Apollo 13, starring Tom Hanks, is the first 35mm live action film in motion picture history to be digitally re-mastered into the IMAX® format. Employing revolutionary, proprietary IMAX® Digital Re-mastering (DMR™) technology, Apollo 13 The IMAX Experience will be shown on the Cinemark IMAX® Theatre screen with unequaled clarity and intensity of image. Developed as a total system to re-master 35mm live-action films into 15/70 film format for exhibition in IMAX theatres, IMAX® DMR™ technology digitally enhances the image quality of 35mm motion pictures for projection onto giant IMAX screens. The resulting images are every bit as big, sharp and beautiful as those of the classic, visually stunning large format films. Cinemark USA, Inc. operates 278 theatres and 3,014 screens currently in 33 states in the United States, and internationally. |

As I watched the
thriller Apollo 13, I felt like I was about to take off into outer space. My
seat seemed to throw me back with the thrusts of the engine. And I wondered
when they were possibly stranded, if I would ever get back to earth. (that
was important because I had another movie screening that night)
A
suspense-filled drama about the extraordinary courage, faith and ingenuity
of three men – and the hundreds more who worked around the clock to bring
them back, Apollo 13 also stars Kevin Bacon, Bill Paxton, Gary
Sinise, and in Oscar®-nominated performances, Ed Harris and Kathleen
Quinlan. The film was originally released in 1995.
