Points were marked down for the video transfer, 4.5/5.
Yes. I'm not sure why though. The transfer looks fantastic and, unlike TDK, they have restored full saturation and color to the picture rather than a desaturated image like in TDK. And the IMAX scenes are godly. I was pretty astonished by them in theaters but it's still super cool to see the picture like that in a home theater system. Here's to IMAX being the future of all blockbuster cinema.

Nope. 35mm upped the contrast quite a lot while still managing to be soft and have some detail washed out. IMAX has upped the contrast a bit as well. I saw Rises seven times on a five/six story screen, I have a really good idea of how it's supposed to look. It's a bit overcooked.

Well, I saw it four on an eight-story high IMAX screen with 12,000 watts of surround sound and a personal subwoofer in my Tempur-Pedic seat. So I have a good idea of how it should look, too. I hope it's nothing too bad that bothers me.

And I know, all that other information was unnecessary...but I like to say it.
