EXCLUSIVE FIRST LOOK at Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 IMAX Poster – Those who have followed me awhile know that IMAX is the optimal way to view a Guardians movie. I personally oversee the 3D, crafting every shot, and only in IMAX do we shift aspect ratios during big scenes so that you get nearly 30% more screen size than anywhere else. Unlike many other films today where screen size shifts and 3D are afterthoughts, we plan our aspect ratios during the script stage, and every single shot is tailored for 3D as we shoot it. Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 2 is designed to be a fully immersive experience to be seen IN theaters. I’m glad that we’ve been able to partner up with IMAX from the moment of its conception.
That’s not all! Fans that go to Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 in IMAX will get to experience more of the team’s galactic adventures than those that see it in standard theatres because the majority of the movie will feature special IMAX formatting. Only available during IMAX showings, select scenes from the movie will be presented in an expanded 1.9:1 aspect ratio which means fans will get to see 26% more of the image than standard theatres, making Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 a must-see event in IMAX.
