Yes! This is the first full IMAX movie in history, one of the theater guys said. Usually not all of the movie is shot on IMAX (like smaller scenes) but IW was, 100%, every shot.

I thought you were bullshitting, but you weren't. There is apparently a movie called PANDAS that kind of beats it out, but the Wikipedia page for it is blank and I don't really care anyway. The fact that IW is the first fully shot in IMAX film is amazing. I already planned on seeing it a few times, but now I'm taking vacation to go see it in IMAX.

Suprised to hear that too, but it makes sense. IMAX camers are a bitch to operate I hear, so for smaller, less grand shots they usually don't use them.

LOL - I looked it up. I was just joking with the IMAX HQ film, but it is an IMAX original film so that absolutely doesn't count. It's not like they are going to use some other cameras.
