Avengers: Infinity War (2018) - SPOILER FREE DISCUSSION - DON'T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT, STARMUNCH!

Yeah, it's optional. Or it is at my local cinemas, at least. They do a lot of AD screenings.

I can't see it being different elsewhere. If everyone had to listen to the audio description then you'd struggle to sell tickets to that screening TBH. The only people who would go are the ones who need it.
 
Is this a film worth seeing in IMAX/3D? Only seen a couple of IMAX films and they were obviously only part shot in IMAX, and the off 3D film.

Edit - £22 for an IMAX 3D ticket. Having a giraffe! And £16 for a 2D tickets - that's even more laughable.

Isn't it the first film to be shot entirely in IMAX?

Personally I'm booked to see it at the BFI IMAX on Tuesday and I can't wait.
 
If I lived in London, I'd have no qualms paying those prices for the BFI or Cineworld Leicester Square. They're incredible compared my local LIE-MAX. :p
 
@ Doodah:
Uh? It's £16.99 if you pay online for the Imax 3D in Telford which is where I will be tomorrow. Travelling thirty miles to get to it though.
 
See my post right above yours. You'd pay the premium above your local if it was convenient. If you've never been then make an effort to go sometime.
 
I looked at Telford. But it's expensive for what it is. The Telford screen is one of the smaller "IMAX" screens in the UK, and has an aspect ratio of 1.85:1. IMAX footage has an aspect ratio of 1.43:1. So the screen size is cut down further when displaying IMAX content. Is it worth the premium over regular tickets at that particular Cineworld? Probably; it's only £3.80 more per ticket and you don't need to faff about remembering to bring your own 3D glasses. But compared to my local cinemas at ~£6 per ticket? Nope.

I'll go and watch it at Manchester Printworks once things quieten down. It's a lot bigger than Telford, and a good bit cheaper.

The BFI is a whole different beast. That screen is huge! It's the best cinema in the UK, so the price premium is very much justified.

Prices I was quoting were for a standard local cinema (Wimbledon), not the BFI which I would imagine is a lot better.
 
2h 40minutes in 4dx is going to be long hopefully they leave some downtime before throwing us around again :D

Weird. I've been to the Print works but preferred Telford. In Manchester I couldn't walk around a corner or approach from a different street without being accosted by a begger. They are supposed to start work on an Imax in Stoke soon run by European company called light. Can't come soon enough.
 
A final reminder to anyone going to see this at midnight etc.

Please read the rules about spoilers (link)

The thread is likely going to explode with activity come release which usually brings in a lot of guests plus people just searching for general consensus for the movies without seeing spoilers.
 
Gonna jump in here before you blow up about the release.

Anyone been to the imax @ Nottingham cineworld? Any good? Never actually seen a film in INAX and I might make this a first. We usually go to showcase cause the seats are amazing but doesn’t have IMAX unfortunately.

So what about a thread where spoilers are allowed?
 
not at all. I go to the cinema by myself all the time. Or used to, now I take my 16 year old!

Solo dates to the cinema are fine!

Me and her indoors have Cineworld Unlimited cards and both of us occasionally go on our own if the other isn't interested.

Ta gone ahead and booked.

Only imax 3d available local so gone for that. Never tried 3d, hope its good.
