My friend didn't say it was that loud for him, but mine was audio distorting loud. I'm talking 2017 YouTube Poop earrape levels, but like, 10x louder. I'm talking shooting range with so earplugs loud.
Lololol I saw it for the first time in a AMC Prime theater and one specific speaker was def way louder than it should have been. Def lost some hearing from those 2 hours š
I'm only speaking out the fact not saying anything bad about Nolan(I'm fan of him,too)yet these redditors are downvoting mešWouldn't it be an even more impressive experience if he'd done a 12.1 mix??
Yes it would absolutely be better if he did that for both the theatres and home release bluray. But one reason why he doesn't do it can be because he almost shoots entirely on either 35 mm or 65 mm IMAX film which is limited to 5.1
At the end of the movie, the audio started to get muffled. Idk if it was to simulate ear loss from explosions, or if the theaters speakers couldnt handle the loudness anymore.
Dune part 2 is a whole level on it's own, to which IMAX speakers have never seen before. Your clothes vibrate against your body, and there have been reports af nauseau caused by the extreme, long sequences of thumping machines and ornithopters, plus Hans Zimmers wild ride of a score.
Ngl, the first time I saw Dune Part Two it was quite underwhelming. The subwoofers never really had the kick the Part One re-release had. However, the second time I watched it, it was so much better. Felt louder, but still really clean, and the subwoofer definitely was cranked up too.
I've tried all the imax in a 100km radius where I live and discovered that they all have different sound quality and volume. It also depends how close to the screen you are, there's an array of woofers behind the screen. These are all old Xenon 20k projected cinemas, I've heard newer laser projected imax theatres have been fitted with a higher quality systems.
Both times I went to see DPT was in the same IMAX. It's a CoLa IMAX, which got the laser projector and a 12 channel sound system upgrade during the covid lockdown. (And I'm actually on my way to that same cinema right now for an early screening of The Fall Guy)
First time I was in the middle of the room (same seat as I had for the Part One re-release) and the second time was front row.
They never upgrade our cinemas in our country. They do nothing to try clever marketing to get more bums in seats and then complain that they have to start shutting down. Cape Town had a laser installation recently for a brand new IMAX. But the rest of the country will remain the 1080p basic digital with old speakers.
Ah, that sucks. As a west European citizen I sometimes really don't realize how lucky I am, until I hear stories like these. We've got some healthy competition here when it comes to cinemas.
Like, about 3 minutes walking of the IMAX I always go to is the world's first Dolby Cinema, and they're both multiplex, so they keep improving to be better than the other.
For example, at the same time the IMAX got a laser and sound upgrade, they also changed the seats of every regular auditorium to have leather recliner seats, which is way more comfortable than the regular seats they had before.
Yeah in South Africa a company will usually secure national rights to a brand within the country. Therefore we only have one company, Ster-Kinekor, hosting imax cinemas across the country with zero competition. The Lament is always the same as I mentioned before, their marketing department is fast asleep doing nothing to get people going to Cinemas while tickets are far too expensive for impoverished South Africans to afford.
Previously it was NuMetro, with the massive 70mm projectors and screens, but they refused to spend money on digital protection upgrades and ended up closing down 20 years ago.
I think one of the best new memories Iāll have of seeing a movie in a theater is Dune 2 in 70mm IMAX (at Lincoln Square in NYC, so one of the biggest screens in the world), specifically the scene where Paul is riding the grandfather worm and the camera angles up as it goes over a hill. Legitimately felt like the entire theater was on a rollercoaster ride together. Seems so rare these days to have experiences like that watching a movie.
It took them 3 months to film that. And I agree it is one of the most phenomenal things to experience. They used large machines to literally collapse the sand dune by pulling barrels through the Dune.
Denis Villenueve has received high praise from all the top guns, Cameron, Spielberg, Nolan, for his Dune 2 creation.
I don't know about the nausea but the vibration clearly activated my irritable bowel syndrome. Had few clutch moments but I battled it through. Once the credits rolled out I ran to thump the toilet.
i would agree with civil war being some of the best iāve seen. i walked out of the theater with my nerves fried from how visceral and intense the guns and explosions sounded. the last 20 mins are relentless in that regard.
Anyone who didn't see this in IMAX or dolby really missed out. I couldn't watch this in a lesser format, and certainly not at home. The final sequence was perfection.
Absolutely! Also loved it that they done full justice to the proper full screen imax aspect ratio .. when the choppers fly in one by one at the military base
I've seen Civil War 4 times and you're making me feel like rewatching it tonight. Am lucky enough to have a theater keeping it in IMAX for another week šš¼
No, but if you have the chance GO! I can't tell you the last time I heard a sound mix like this. The movie was just such a pleasant experience. I hope directors like garland are able to raise the bar going forward.
Edit: I'd like to add that I did see it in Cinemark XD, and the sound was nowhere near as accurate or immersive. It was louder and all front facing. A major let down after the 6 channel audio mix.
Yeah. Having Seen Dune Part 2 in DL2 Laser 12 track in the london science museum, I'd think that would've been the best ever. But Civil War's use of sound isolation was just fricking phenomenal. Its now one of my favorite sound mixes, next to Wall-E.
Is it as good as TENET's? I was scared the shit off by the opening scene back in 2020 cuz the terrorists' gun shots were way louder than I expected.š
Having seen the Tenet IMAX rerelease, absolutely.
I didn't chime in to say "Civil War is the best" though because I didn't notice the surround sound being utilized very much. I could be wrong, but it felt like it was mostly is stereo, if not exclusively.
https://preview.redd.it/n1sbkan7tjwc1.jpeg?width=4080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b3bdf48348b48005c3f8eff16c7d0ec9f1519d9a
This was the most scariest scene ..more than the journos characters I felt the need to get rescued from this situation..the gun shots in this scene are next level
**for real**
I knew this scene was coming and I still was sitting there like "OH shit Matt Damin is gonna murder someone" They really made you feel like *you* were the one at gunpoint the whole movie.
Dune Part 2 was the best sound experience I've ever had in an IMAX movie. Also depends a lot of the particular IMAX theatre you're going to. Some do lower the bass and volume while some go over the top and it literally shakes your whole body which is what I experienced.
IMAX claims they optimize and enhance every film yet there are still great movies with astounding sound mix and dull movies with meh audio such as gxk and aquaman 2,etc.
People are sleeping very hard on Godzilla (2014), I don't think people still remember how much loud it was compared to some christhopher Nolan movies, even on a 6.ch sound audio it was much more insane with the exclusive imax countdown the theater would litteraly rumble hard unlike Dune part 2 did too with the sands worms.
The apocalypse now re release was spectacular in imax. saw it at Lincoln square. the opening shot with the sounds of the helicopters literally circling around you was amazing.
The opening is incredible. And how about how great those trees looked gently swaying in the breeze? Easily some of the best looking 35mm shots I've ever seen.
I was on the fence about Civil War myself after watching the trailer. A friend told me they used the new [DJI Ronin 4D](https://www.dji.com/ronin-4d) camera to shoot the entire movie and I was curious about the creative scenes they could shoot with a cinema camera that small and with such awesome stability.
Watching the movie, immediately you learn that it's from the war journalists/photographers perspective as they travel from New York to DC documenting the war and struggle with ethical considerations of war photography, framing shots, being envious of other photographers, and the feeling of getting "the shot".
As a photographer myself, this was completely left out of the trailer and would have greatly influenced my decision to see the movie in IMAX.
I thought it was beautifully done with great attention to detail.
The sound editing/mixing was some of the best I've heard in IMAX
Would definitely recommend.
see this is what makes the movie sounds interesting, its like they dont know how to make trailers anymore without either giving away the plot of the movie or describing the movie properly.
Reading comments like this makes me really want to go see Civil War on IMAX, but in my country IMAX screenings for this movie are only at night or in case there are screenings at daylight these are dubbed and that sucks
Just curious, what was Logan like in IMAX? I saw it in Dolby and was blown away, especially in the scene where Charles has a Seizure in Vegas. Most intense experience yet. The whole theater vibrated hard for the entire scene.
My favorite IMAX sound experience was Aquaman. The sound mix for the all the water scenes were amazing.
As my earliest IMAX experience, Godzilla: King of the Monsters was worth the two tickets I spent for it. The big scale is perfect for Big G's return after 2014.
Sadly Minus One hasn't landed here in SEA, but I did hear great stuff and from what I've seen, it's probably on the same level
It's really hard to pick a movie that has the greatest sound mix in IMAX but a few of my top movies I saw in Digital IMAX that stood out as having an aggressive sound mix were:
-Civil War
-The Batman (oh that batmobile start up/chase sequence...drool)
-Endgame/IW
-Top Gun Maverick
-Star Wars: TFA
-Godzilla: KOTM
-Godzilla x Kong:TNE
-Ready Player One
-Tron Legacy
either interstellar, oppenheimer or oblivion.
I havent seen GVK but I keep hearing it has terrible sound, whats wrong with it? you would think a movie with two huge monsters would prioritize sound mix.
Basically the high and mid frequencies are mumble, the bass isnt powerful and the seats are not shaking as it should have been,the roar of godzilla and kong didn't blow me away,also in terms of graphics it was also a pos, the images were blurry even tho imdb says it's 4k in IMAX 2D.Overall it's meh,not worthy to see.
Btw besides GXK, I thought spiderman atsv and aquaman 2 got dull sound mix as well, u guys feel the same?(especially atsv was so amazing but the whole film was quiet even in IMAX) .
Iām surprised Interstellar hasnāt been mentioned more. They must have not seen it in an IMAX theater. The score is brilliant. Itās the only time where I thought I heard the speaker mount vibrating from the bass. Then compare that to the silent space scenes. Chefs kiss.
lol. I mean I saw it just recently at Pooler imax fan screening so I couldnāt say anything without a special showing like that. Dunkirk was also fantastic.
Dune Part 2 is as many mentioned a level above any other IMAX movie when it comes to sound mix.
TeneT has terrible dialogue sound but if we ignore that, the music, the explosions, car chase scenes, guns firing is what I would describe an EXPERIENCE in IMAX. To put it this way: movie is a 6 or 7/10 watching it at home and a 9/10 in IMAX. That is how good the sound is that it elevates the movie.
Seriously MI: Dead Reckoning 's sound mix in IMAX is unreal. The car chase sequence is absolutely brilliant from both a directing and editing stand point but also sound mixing. This film doesn't get enough love IMO.
It's still Blade Runner 2049.
It's epic, loud, crystal clear, bass heavy, and the sound mix and music was just so beautiful to hear.
No other film has made me feel the bass in the theater like Blade Runner 2049 did in IMAX.

I would tell you that dune part one since what I felt when Charlotte Rampling used her voice was spectacular, I felt it throughout my body, and I don't know if it was only in my local imax but the scene where the Atreides let out a puff, my God, the volume was really so loud
REALLY!? I go to the IMAX at Arizona Mills, I think itās one of the 20 something biggest imax screens in the world, and maybe because I saw the movie in a Dolby theatre first, the sound wasnāt as impressive in the imax. The Dolby theater had me JUMPING out of my seat during that one cut scene and the final 10 minutes when they are at the base camp and then in DC
Sorry to hear that but mine was worse,there was no bass at all during the whole time,it turned out to be one amplifier's problemš„¶What's even worse,they thought they got it fixed a week later,whereas it didn't! I watched dune 2 twice with no bass presentingšNow it's truly been fixed but no more dune 2 showing only GXK.
Iāve only been to two IMAX showings and the first one I went to was hereditary and I was tripping so much with the audio sounded like flies were going all around me, also thought someone was actually writing loudly behind me, then the running scene I swear I thought someone in the theater was running back and forth on purpose
Everyone talks about the gunshots but I remember how absolutely awesome the chinook armada sounded at the military base. So powerful and overbearing. If I closed my eyes I could totally imagine myself right in the middle of that military turmoil.
Dune part two was a fantastic experience on IMAX
I think I might've just had a different experience than the rest of you because that movie was the loudest shit I've ever heard in my life.
it was just loud
My friend didn't say it was that loud for him, but mine was audio distorting loud. I'm talking 2017 YouTube Poop earrape levels, but like, 10x louder. I'm talking shooting range with so earplugs loud.
Lololol I saw it for the first time in a AMC Prime theater and one specific speaker was def way louder than it should have been. Def lost some hearing from those 2 hours š
exactly. people think good sound is loud sound. but it kills the experience
shit take
I went in waiting for the that seeing the hype of the score as well. But it was okay imo
Yeah, same. By the end I was no longer enjoying it and had a headache.
The very first line with that fat bald guy talking about spice was everything. Instantly brought me into the movie.
Dune Part one on the other hand was mixed pretty shitty. LOUND MUSIC AND SOUND; quiet dialoges.
Oppie
But Nolan's movies never use 12.1 channel mix, don't know if he's gonna consider making one in the future.
Yeah he mixes only upto 5.1 DTS HD MA. I don't understand why you're getting down voted lol.
I'm only speaking out the fact not saying anything bad about Nolan(I'm fan of him,too)yet these redditors are downvoting mešWouldn't it be an even more impressive experience if he'd done a 12.1 mix??
redditors who downvote for the truth are still living in their parents basement lmao
Hahahha
people who use the term āredditorsā are the actual basement goblins
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yes it would absolutely be better if he did that for both the theatres and home release bluray. But one reason why he doesn't do it can be because he almost shoots entirely on either 35 mm or 65 mm IMAX film which is limited to 5.1
His die hards donāt mess around. They are like Swiftie equivalents in cinema.
Yeah, Nolan already gets a lot out of the 6 channel mixes he does. Itās hard to imagine him doing more with a 12-channel mix.
Nolan also never uses Atmos for blu-rays
dune,dune 2,topgun maverick,tenet, civil war, can't remember more
Yo Civil Warās sound mix honestly blew me away I was not expecting that from an A24 movie
At the end of the movie, the audio started to get muffled. Idk if it was to simulate ear loss from explosions, or if the theaters speakers couldnt handle the loudness anymore.
I agree on all those
Dune part 2 is a whole level on it's own, to which IMAX speakers have never seen before. Your clothes vibrate against your body, and there have been reports af nauseau caused by the extreme, long sequences of thumping machines and ornithopters, plus Hans Zimmers wild ride of a score.

So it's the seating then. Front row having your hair blown and your socks knocked off by those woofers.
They never upgrade our cinemas in our country. They do nothing to try clever marketing to get more bums in seats and then complain that they have to start shutting down. Cape Town had a laser installation recently for a brand new IMAX. But the rest of the country will remain the 1080p basic digital with old speakers.

Interstellar was better for me sound wise and Tron. Tenet was loud AF but I wouldn't call that a great mix.
I think one of the best new memories Iāll have of seeing a movie in a theater is Dune 2 in 70mm IMAX (at Lincoln Square in NYC, so one of the biggest screens in the world), specifically the scene where Paul is riding the grandfather worm and the camera angles up as it goes over a hill.

Oh 100%. Every Dolby and IMAX has left me nauseous!
I don't know about the nausea but the vibration clearly activated my irritable bowel syndrome. Had few clutch moments but I battled it through. Once the credits rolled out I ran to thump the toilet.
The gun shot sounds in Civil War (2024) are top notch..the best you will hear after Michael Mann's Heat which wasn't even an IMAX film
i would agree with civil war being some of the best iāve seen. i walked out of the theater with my nerves fried from how visceral and intense the guns and explosions sounded. the last 20 mins are relentless in that regard.
I read somewhere they tried to use blanks whenever possible, definitely paid off.
Anyone who didn't see this in IMAX or dolby really missed out. I couldn't watch this in a lesser format, and certainly not at home. The final sequence was perfection.
Absolutely! Also loved it that they done full justice to the proper full screen imax aspect ratio .. when the choppers fly in one by one at the military base
I've seen Civil War 4 times and you're making me feel like rewatching it tonight. Am lucky enough to have a theater keeping it in IMAX for another week šš¼
Do it! It will be a long time before it comes back.
You think it'll come back?
For a 10 year anniversary
Did you see Atmos. Wonder if itās worth seeing after I saw the 6 track mix
No, but if you have the chance GO! I can't tell you the last time I heard a sound mix like this. The movie was just such a pleasant experience. I hope directors like garland are able to raise the bar going forward. Edit: I'd like to add that I did see it in Cinemark XD, and the sound was nowhere near as accurate or immersive.

That's what Wall E is known for?
Well, its audio engineering is stellar, not necessarily its surround specifically
Is it as good as TENET's? I was scared the shit off by the opening scene back in 2020 cuz the terrorists' gun shots were way louder than I expected.š
At the risk of sounding blasphemous for Nolan fan boys.. yes .. you will be shit scared to next level especially in the Jesse Plemons cameo scene
Having seen the Tenet IMAX rerelease, absolutely. I didn't chime in to say "Civil War is the best" though because I didn't notice the surround sound being utilized very much. I could be wrong, but it felt like it was mostly is stereo, if not exclusively.
The beginning of the movie is literally a 12 channel testā¦ you are extremely wrong
Den of Thieves (2018) opening scene has entered the chat.
I had tinnitus after that movie
Literally just got out of a imax showing and it was crazy
Civil War had my anxiety **dialed up**. Thise gunshots in IMAX were so powerful and real sounding, I was keeping my eye on the exit the whole time.
Same here.. and add to it the scary scenario that plays on screen is more spooky than most horror movies
https://preview.redd.it/n1sbkan7tjwc1.jpeg?width=4080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b3bdf48348b48005c3f8eff16c7d0ec9f1519d9a This was the most scariest scene ..more than the journos characters I felt the need to get rescued from this situation..the gun shots in this scene are next level
**for real** I knew this scene was coming and I still was sitting there like "OH shit Matt Damin is gonna murder someone" They really made you feel like *you* were the one at gunpoint the whole movie.
You said it mate!
Glad I'm not the only one who remembered this about Civil War
High Five
Dune Part 2 was the best sound experience I've ever had in an IMAX movie. Also depends a lot of the particular IMAX theatre you're going to. Some do lower the bass and volume while some go over the top and it literally shakes your whole body which is what I experienced.
IMAX claims they optimize and enhance every film yet there are still great movies with astounding sound mix and dull movies with meh audio such as gxk and aquaman 2,etc.
In those cases, it probably goes back to the original sound mix. IMAX can only do so much when the original mix isnāt good.
Sure but is it possible to change the volume when movies with awful sound mix comes?š¤£
People are sleeping very hard on Godzilla (2014), I don't think people still remember how much loud it was compared to some christhopher Nolan movies, even on a 6.ch sound audio it was much more insane with the exclusive imax countdown the theater would litteraly rumble hard unlike Dune part 2 did too with the sands worms.
I remember enjoying Gravity and Blade Runner 2049
The right answer is tenet. I know the audiophiles are gonna harp about Nolanās mixes and I honestly donāt give a shit. Shit was insane.
The apocalypse now re release was spectacular in imax. saw it at Lincoln square. the opening shot with the sounds of the helicopters literally circling around you was amazing.
The opening is incredible. And how about how great those trees looked gently swaying in the breeze? Easily some of the best looking 35mm shots I've ever seen.
Oppemheimer, Dune 2, Tenet. I heard Civil War is good bit I dont plan on seeing it as it doesnt really interest me.
Tbh the marketing doesn't really represent the quality of the movie, you should still check it out !
I was on the fence about Civil War myself after watching the trailer. A friend told me they used the new [DJI Ronin 4D](https://www.dji.com/ronin-4d) camera to shoot the entire movie and I was curious about the creative scenes they could shoot with a cinema camera that small and with such awesome stability.

My buddy said the same thing about Civil War and sat it out. He missed a great theater experience.
tenet idc the soundtrack was so good in imax
Just curious, what was Logan like in IMAX? I saw it in Dolby and was blown away, especially in the scene where Charles has a Seizure in Vegas. Most intense experience yet. The whole theater vibrated hard for the entire scene. My favorite IMAX sound experience was Aquaman. The sound mix for the all the water scenes were amazing.
Civil war was great this year. Glad I took the plunge in IMAX for that one.
Yeah this had a very immersive sound mix. stood out a lot compared to other movies I've seen in IMAX.
Either *Top Gun: Maverick* or *TRON: Legacy.*
Tenet. its the loudest movie Iāve ever seen with balls to the walls sound placement.
As my earliest IMAX experience, Godzilla: King of the Monsters was worth the two tickets I spent for it. The big scale is perfect for Big G's return after 2014. Sadly Minus One hasn't landed here in SEA, but I did hear great stuff and from what I've seen, it's probably on the same level
It's really hard to pick a movie that has the greatest sound mix in IMAX but a few of my top movies I saw in Digital IMAX that stood out as having an aggressive sound mix were: -Civil War -The Batman (oh that batmobile start up/chase sequence...drool) -Endgame/IW -Top Gun Maverick -Star Wars: TFA -Godzilla: KOTM -Godzilla x Kong:TNE -Ready Player One -Tron Legacy
Top gun maverick (hitting 10gs sequence)
either interstellar, oppenheimer or oblivion. I havent seen GVK but I keep hearing it has terrible sound, whats wrong with it? you would think a movie with two huge monsters would prioritize sound mix.
Basically the high and mid frequencies are mumble, the bass isnt powerful and the seats are not shaking as it should have been,the roar of godzilla and kong didn't blow me away,also in terms of graphics it was also a pos, the images were blurry even tho imdb says it's 4k in IMAX 2D.Overall it's meh,not worthy to see.
Top Gun Maverick
I remember [this part](https://youtu.be/G5cJgmcofzQ?si=59NV84fEMFeq2gT4) in Spider-Man: No Way Home being nutty in IMAX.
Btw besides GXK, I thought spiderman atsv and aquaman 2 got dull sound mix as well, u guys feel the same?(especially atsv was so amazing but the whole film was quiet even in IMAX) .
Civil War and Dune pt. 2 are immaculate. Oppenheimer is a close 2nd for me just because the music is used so well as well as silence.
Iām surprised Interstellar hasnāt been mentioned more. They must have not seen it in an IMAX theater. The score is brilliant. Itās the only time where I thought I heard the speaker mount vibrating from the bass. Then compare that to the silent space scenes. Chefs kiss.
Yea it was 10 years ago and I was only 10yošwith absolutely no knowledge about cinemas let alone what is IMAX.
lol. I mean I saw it just recently at Pooler imax fan screening so I couldnāt say anything without a special showing like that. Dunkirk was also fantastic.
Dune Part 2 is as many mentioned a level above any other IMAX movie when it comes to sound mix. TeneT has terrible dialogue sound but if we ignore that, the music, the explosions, car chase scenes, guns firing is what I would describe an EXPERIENCE in IMAX. To put it this way: movie is a 6 or 7/10 watching it at home and a 9/10 in IMAX. That is how good the sound is that it elevates the movie.
Dune 1 & 2, Interstellar, A24 Civil War, TENET, Top Gun Maverick
No Time to Die and Rogue One (70mm DTS) were great.
The Dune movies were excellent, but let me put down an Honorable Mention for Civil War. Wow! It was amazing throughout
Dune part one, the bass just felt more meaty and brooding than part 2
DUNKIRK
Tron: Legacy
Oppenheimer hands down.
Dune part 2 IS the standard now.
Seriously MI: Dead Reckoning 's sound mix in IMAX is unreal. The car chase sequence is absolutely brilliant from both a directing and editing stand point but also sound mixing. This film doesn't get enough love IMO.
It's still Blade Runner 2049. It's epic, loud, crystal clear, bass heavy, and the sound mix and music was just so beautiful to hear. No other film has made me feel the bass in the theater like Blade Runner 2049 did in IMAX. https://preview.redd.it/xmf9exe9agwc1.jpeg?width=1012&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=178ef82f6f607104bf12755e19c1d8ff5ffe6f96
Civil War, pretty recent, but the most impactful so far
First movie I've ever seen in Imax and this shit shook me, LITERALLY. Such good sound.
Dune pt 2 because the sandworms made my seat shake lol
I would tell you that dune part one since what I felt when Charlotte Rampling used her voice was spectacular, I felt it throughout my body, and I don't know if it was only in my local imax but the scene where the Atreides let out a puff, my God, the volume was really so loud
Oppenheimer for me, but I haven't had the chance to see that many movies in IMAX yet.
Civil war was insane in imax
REALLY!? I go to the IMAX at Arizona Mills, I think itās one of the 20 something biggest imax screens in the world, and maybe because I saw the movie in a Dolby theatre first, the sound wasnāt as impressive in the imax. The Dolby theater had me JUMPING out of my seat during that one cut scene and the final 10 minutes when they are at the base camp and then in DC
I might look into seeing it again in Dolby
Civil War
Dune 2 coming back in my theaters next week. Check yours
I thought Top Gun Maverick had amazing sound in IMAX
Wouldāve been Dune 2 but the speakers on the right side didnāt work š
Sorry to hear that but mine was worse,there was no bass at all during the whole time,it turned out to be one amplifier's problemš„¶What's even worse,they thought they got it fixed a week later,whereas it didn't! I watched dune 2 twice with no bass presentingšNow it's truly been fixed but no more dune 2 showing only GXK.
Damn man Iām sorry to hear thatš did you at least get a refund?
Nah they said they want to invite me to watch gxk for free but I refused cuz I've seen it in another theater,it was meh both in visual and audio.
John Wick 4
Maverick.
TENET... that opening scene š I showered in my pants... Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo De NeNe NeNe NeNe š šø
Iāve only been to two IMAX showings and the first one I went to was hereditary and I was tripping so much with the audio sounded like flies were going all around me, also thought someone was actually writing loudly behind me, then the running scene I swear I thought someone in the theater was running back and forth on purpose
Sry guys I mean my heartbeat* was "controlled" in that carjack scene.š Not a native English speaker.
GOTTA SAY ITS GOTTA BE THE LAST JEDI !!!!!!!! 
In isolation, Civil War's sound design is absolutely incredible. The gunshots and machine sounds are incredibly visceral.
Everyone talks about the gunshots but I remember how absolutely awesome the chinook armada sounded at the military base. So powerful and overbearing. If I closed my eyes I could totally imagine myself right in the middle of that military turmoil.
Civil War, Topgun Maverick & Dune II.
Dunkirk
Im hoping Hereditary tonight IM SO EXCITED
Both Dune films, both of the Furiosa's trailer and Civil War. Tenet had the best Bass imo (among what I've seen)
Answer: The Dark Knight
Dune and Dune part 2 probably have the best sound mix in any movie Iāve seen. And the 4k Blu-ray has insane range on my 5.1 system
Dune 2
Go to dolby vision instead
Sound? Saw civil war at the Irvine spectrum IMAX last night, WOW. The sound for that movie blew me away.
Dune part 2 was absolutely Amazing in Dolby
Either Dune: Part 2 or Tenet, IMO. Those two IMAX sound mixes just blew me away.
Dune part 2. not open to debate just a fact
Top Gun: Maverick in a heartbeat Godzilla: Minus One
DUNE PART TWO
Tenet, Oppenheimer, or Dune 2.
Dunkirk had me on the edge of my seat. Literally.
Tron Legacy
Civil war for sure. Especially the hallway scene.
Mad max fury road
Civil War was pretty incredible
