Phil Connolly Posted October 15, 2004 Share Posted October 15, 2004 The Imax film 'Destiny in Space' has a few shots from 2001: A Space Oddessy, Letterboxed within the Imax frame. It looked really good, certainly sharp enough and better than some DMR Imax blowups. I don't think the full film would be transfered to Imax as it would cost a fortune and because its not a mainstream film would probably make a loss. Also there is little point as the 570 prints look great anyway and could be projected on the Imax screen (this has happend in Bradford England) with good results Also the Imax sound system couldn't reproduce the proper 5 screen channel sound mix of the original.
