Slightly OT, Barbie’s reviews dropped. Currently 89% on RT. https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/barbie I think Oppenheimer will beat this. Dunkirk started with 98% and it’s at 92% now. I’ve read more overwhelmingly positive reactions for Oppie than I did for Dunkirk. I’ve seen a very small handful of r...

Won't be able to catch a 70mm IMAX until August 9th. I've been busy and procrastinated on getting tickets, and Universal Citywalk 70mm IMAX is pretty much fully booked for weeks, except for scattered single seats in the first few rows, way too close for me. Great to see everyone so interested in th...

It’s a shame he won’t make a TikTok because that TikTok he did at the CityWalk IMAX was the best TikTok I’ve ever seen. I completely understand never joining TikTok though.

Flora! I guess that’s her on the left?

You can see the Arriflex 435 Advanced being used to film those "visual effects" elements.

Interesting that they didn’t use Vistavision, like they used Vistavision to shot effects shots for Interstellar.

That’s the first I’ve heard of them using 35mm. I guess some of the quantum physics shots would require it. Yup. Probably the high speed shots. Apparently, the rotary prism camera they used could film at 2500fps! Oh Nelly! Wonder if those shots will be 1.33 open mate-cropped to 1.43 or in 2.20?
