Endgame is advertised as being only the second Hollywood blockbuster filmed entirely in IMAX (the first was Infinity War). I was able to resolve far more of what was happening on screen with none of the fuzziness I experienced on my first go around. It’s quite obvious from the framing of most scenes that the film was intended to use the added screen height and, of course, the gain in resolution from DCI2K (essentially 1080p HD) to true 4K is astonishing. Long story short: the experience was amazing and far, FAR better than the cropped DCI2K 2.35 aspect ratio release we saw the week before at our local cineplex. The only reason we thought to check it was I saw Interstellar there being it’s the only theater I know of in all of Michigan that has a 70mm IMAX Film projector and one of the few with an accompanying 1.43:1 screen (60ft tall at this theater). Quick aside for those in the Detroit area: we saw it at Henry Ford which isn’t advertised on the official IMAX website as having showtimes for the film.

Last night, my fiancée and I went to see Avengers: Endgame at one of the few IMAX theaters we have here in Michigan. I apologize if there is already a thread about this.
