I Saw OPPENHEIMER in Three Different Formats - What to Know 

All the footage of 70mm projection, seen at 2:03, 2:55, 8:08, and 9:13 was shot by the channel Designed by Kirk and taken from this video: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0QUxJ57N9I0.html

Saw it last night in standard theater, the sound was louder than any movie I've watched in 10 years. I love that.

After watching in 70mm IMAX i don't think I'll ever want to see it any other way!

I saw it in 35mm and 70mm IMAX. Obviously 70mm IMAX was the best experience, but i should mention if you have to choose between 35mm and Digital, I'd still go with 35mm. Sure it has slight imperfections and blemishes, but its a rare experience nowadays and I 100% recommend it.

Love this!! I saw Oppenheimer in 70mm IMAX and it truly was a once in a lifetime experience. Great video!!

I saw it in 70mm IMAX at a huge almost 180 degree theater that wraps around you like a planetarium at a museum near me. One of the best movie watching experiences ever. I even loved during the silent points the only sound was the projector running. Just don't get stuff like that in any other movie. Oh and if you can only see it in a "normal" theater look for Dolby Atmos theaters, they have the best sound I've heard, a lot of AMC theaters have them.

cant wait to watch it on the plane

my partner and i were at one of the 70mm IMAX theaters. absolutely breathtaking and captured my mind in a trance

Dragged my family to Denver to see it on 5/70mm. Well worth it, loved the movie. Incredible story, the cinematography was excellent, and the Trinity test has overthrown the docking scene as (what I believe to be) the greatest scene in all of cinema. We saw it on a platter, so no changeovers, but you could still tell it was film, and I loved it. Nolan, you keep at it you madman. We love you for it.

*"Gigachad Oppenheimer doesn't exist, he can't hurt you"* Me, sitting in the front row: 6:30

Saw it on a 70' IMAX screen for my first time and then regular 70mm for my second and I loved the 70mm showing. The print had some scratches on it and it went out a couple times in the first hour but it looked incredible. I don't think I've ever watched a Nolan movie in a normal theater since 2012.

Very minor correction, Oppenheimer was filmed in 15 perf 70, whereas at the start you showed 5 perf 70, so the resulting frame size was about 9.5x the size of super 35 and not 4x. Hope you get to see a better viewing on 70mm, it sounds like they had issues at your cinema. If you really can be bothered, there's 2 cinemas in San Francisco that are showing in full 15 perf 70mm, which is what i saw it in. If you do go it woukd be interesting to hear the difference between full imax and regular 70mm. Thanks for the video

Your dedication to giving the people what they need to know has got you my loyal subscription. Please keep up the great work

Eraserhead! Yay! Hail Lynch! Oppenheimer was great. Watched it in IMAX three times.

I saw it and n IMAX 70mm (15 perf) here in Atlanta. It’s fabulous! I bought another ticket for next week to see it again since this format looks so good and is rarely available.

I saw it in standard 70mm and I think my print in NYC was different than yours. There was definitely some damage but it was a little more mild than your recreation. The contrast was especially dark, skin tones were reddish or orange. Lots of deep blues and a hint of green, especially in the scenes where Oppie is being interrogated. The glow cast from the projector illuminated so much of the movie. Especially during the Trinity test, seeing the black night sky contrasted with a deep orange glow. It was truly magnificent. I hope the 4K UHD resembles it somewhat.

Lmaoooo the ending, I feel the same about seeing movies on the plane. It astounds me that some people are content with either experience.

I can't wait to watch it 2 more times. Any chance to watch this movie I get is not going to be waisted! God I love it

I understand and love the spectacle of the theater experience, but for immersion nothing beats the tablet + headphones with all lights off combo when everyone else is asleep. I've had too many movie experiences disturbed by obnoxious people in the theater. The theater can be amazing, but it's no the only way (and sometimes not even the best way) to have an excellent movie experience.

I saw it at IMAX 70MM in the Regal Palace in Ontario, CA. The screen was absolutely massive and it was cool hearing the film projector for the first time. (I’ve never seen a movie on actual film till then.) and I didn’t notice any cuts or anything at all it was amazing and breathtaking.

love the david lynch message at the end❤

I feel like you had a terrible projectionist at your 70mm viewing. I saw it on 70mm my first viewing and had ZERO “cigarette” burns or reel swap image/focus issues…. Idk what the heck that’s from… I’m seeing it in 70mm IMAX soon, can’t wait to compare.

Thank you! Just bought a ticket to the IMAX at the Texas History Museum for next week. Looking forward to that!!! The last IMAX movie I saw was a Warren Miller flick at the theater in West Yellowstone, MT. I appreciate your reviews so much!

Saw it Tuesday in 70mm because Albuquerque does not have a 70mm IMAX theater. Very good copy with only some vertical lines for a few seconds at the beginning. Went out of focus once for about a minute after a reel change. I read several YT reviews complaining that the sound was way too loud, but volume at my theater, while quite loud, was fine and I only had difficulty hearing the dialogue briefly 2-3 times. Btw, I was privileged to see 2001: A Space Odyssey in 1968 when it came out at a Cinerama theater in Denver, CO. I was 16. What an experience. Anyone who hasn't seen that movie in a theater, especially in a 70mm print, truly has not really seen it.

Saw it last night on 70mm. Was shocked at how rough it was, with ongoing horizontal scratch marks amd occasional vertical lines on the left or right edges. It was fairly distracting at first. And thankfully it seemed to minimize after the first third or so. I want to see the digital version now to get a feel for the differences. I couldn't tell if the film made it appear older or if it was stylized that way by the filmmakers.

saw it in imax 70mm , it was amazing

saw it twice in 70mm at the Grand Lake theater in Oakland. Their 70 mil projection is pro...always. The reel transitions were barely noticeable. Probably only so for someone who knows what to look for. Saw the two shows a few weeks apart, and the print was still pretty damn clean on the second viewing. If you're in the bay area go there.

Great video !!

Seeing this in IMAX 15/70 was incredible, and I'm glad I went out of my way to see it. Same thing with the hateful eight roadshow - that was a total blast too. Love film!

I saw it on 70mm IMAX at the Chinese Theater in Hollywood. I loved it, the only problem was that i lost my glasses beforehand so I can't really say much about the film print's quality.

Are there no theaters showing 35mm film prints anymore?

I saw it in Dolby Atmos twice. The sound was easily the best highlight. They’re were plenty of moments I felt the seats shake like it was a 4D movie. It feels like they purposely pushed the limits of their equipment, which I’ve never really felt before.

Thanks for posting such a great video! I didn’t know anything about 70mm before watching this

really well done video brother

In México there is only Digital IMAX (xenon) screens...still an amazing expeirence

I saw it IMAX 70mm at the Irvine spectrum. Was awesome and we were lucky. The theater sent an email the morning of the show that they were having technical issues with the projector and they were going to switch to digital IMAX. Luckily they got the IMAX 70mm print back up and running.

I saw it on digital IMAX because here in Illinois it's not being shown in 70mm IMAX. Other places does have the 70mm film and other theaters say "shown in 70mm 4k" so I'm confused.

Saw it in 70mm IMAX in Dublin, CA then a second viewing at the Alamo in San Francisco!! (70mm)

You really should *not* be seeing any wonky-ness during changeovers. If you're seeing anything over than the cue dots and a crisp change in scene, then the projectionist goofed! If you saw a test chart, then they either took to long to start the motor or didn't advance the film far enough in the projector when threading. Glad you liked it, but that's not really what's supposed to happen.

Hello Hakeem, great video, glad you got to see Oppenheimer in the various formats. However, could you please credit where you get your footage from. Some of the sequences in your video are directly copied from work I captured in one of my recent videos. Thank-you.

I live in the most isolated city in the world, at least the screen didn’t had the black bars

As someone who watched it in IMAX 70mm, it was incredible

6:27 Thanos Murphy

But have you seen a shitty cam version it on a pirating website?

You were in San Francisco. Instead of watching it in the Mission for the 70mm, you should have gone to Metreon for the 70mm IMAX

Loved my standard 70mm screening even though 1/3 through it the cuts were present in bottom corner. It was rectified later and now I got imax 70mm on my calendar.

You didn't go to Dublin? How?

4:16 you saw the 5 perf 70mm version. The imax 15perf 70mm version is all one reel with no reel changes or cue markers for such and 15perf 70mm is higher fidelity and fed through horizontally versus 70mm 5 perf. I just saw it last night on true 70mm IMAX since I suppose I'm lucky enough to live somewhere that has one still. You may be aware of this fact but you don't clearly express that many theaters may play a 70mm version which isnt the IMAX version and what the differences are between 15p70mm IMAX and 5p70mm standard film. Also, it's mostly shot on 65mm and transferred; the 70mm print needs room for the audio and sync tracks which aren't present on the film that goes into the camera, otherwise your camera and film would be larger for no reason other than being able to fit audio/sync later in editing and since you don't just add this onto the original film, no one would stand for that extra weight, cost and hassle..and even if the camera stock was 70mm, the actual image would have to be cropped or scaled on the print to fit audio/sync anyway

The State Theatre screwed up their projection. They need to manually zoom it in because of the non-standard aspect ratio. Same thing happened to me when I saw Dunkirk and Tenet at a regular multiplex and I was honestly livid.

Saw it in 70mm IMAX in Dallas. Pretty mind blowing.

Bro you really should level your Microphone, it's way to quiet

I've been trying to see this film on 15/70mm IMAX for three weeks now. I am fortunate that I have a theatre with such a system close by. Unfortunately, the last two times I tried to see Oppenheimer, the showing was plagued with some malfunction and cancelled. I have tickets for next week and I'm hoping for the best. I am fully aware of the intense logistical requirements and technical talent required to show such a film, but I'm just disappointed. A swap to digital nor future free tickets mean nothing.

What about on 35mm? Or Dolby Vision?

Article: “Only 30 locations worldwide” American: “Only 30 locations in the US”

is imax with laser standard imax or digital? in Malaysia the best imax we have is imax wth laser with 4k resolution, not sure single or dual projectioin, but the ratio is 1.90:1 i believe, so i guess its single projection.

Thanks for this! I was wondering what the differences were.

I saw it in digital imax it was good enough for me spectacular sound.

I found that the room and sound made all the difference. Too small of a room and the sound was very muddy.

There's a big difference between 70mm and 70mm IMAX. I've seen it in 70mm IMAX in Prague and it was the most beautiful movie experience ever, definitely a noticeable difference between either smaller film formats or the equivalent digital format.

I have three choices, 35mm an hour a way or locally, a regular theater or Dolby Atmos.

seeing it in iMax 70MM was life changing

Comments by David Lynch -😆🤔 wisdom.

What about dolby vision?

The Interstellar footage at 3:04 us not imax 70mm. Its is 2k imax xenon. You stole it from a different channel and didn't even give it credit

Bruh go watch in San Francisco or Sacramento in 70 imax they extended the run by weeks

6:21 giga chad cillian Murphy 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Another cult-like homage to Christopher Nolan - a director who thinks having a high res image is more immersive than hearing the dialogue clearly. Baffles me why he refuses to do ADR and instead cranks up the music to hide the noise of the IMAX camera.

Man, I feel bad for you if you had to see it thrice. Hope you got paid for it. 😂

I drove 8 hours to see it in 15/70 IMAX and it was out of focus and dark it was so bad it almost looked 3d it was a wast of itme I hate the black bars in regula theaters i wish they would cover them up like the use to its so trashy seeing a big screen filled with back bars
