I'm pretty sure there's a 70mm IMAX in Berlin that uses laser, Australia too and so on. Having a 1.9:1 digital IMAX screen with laser projection will improve the image quality but not the aspect ratio as the screen is still 1.9
Well Berlin is pretty far away from me lol but cool that they seem to have laser.
That's awesome for me, Berlin is less than 300km away. :D

Nice, but I'll be more than happy to see this in 70mm in Amsterdam, very nearby.

Amsterdam would be relatively near by, if I would still be living close to the german-dutch border, but not anymore :cry:

Oh that's a pity.

I plan to go on a big ass holiday next summer. Think I can squeeze London in there as well, would like to see this at the BFI as well :P

I'm wondering if there are still IMAX cinemas left in Europe which don't project films only digitally.

In the Netherlands we have one 70mm IMAX I think, but only nature documentaries are screened there. So practically we only have digital IMAX's too.

But that's the Omniversum in Den Haag, which is like a dome. I think the only time a feature film was shown in such a screen which was also partially shot with IMAX camera's was TDKR somewhere in the US lol but they don't do that here.

The Eye museum in Amsterdam North has a 70mm projector (big screen, but not IMAX). I watched The Hateful Eight there earlier this year and it was glorious

I'm sure they'll get a 70mm print of Dunkirk and I'll undoubtedly see it there!
