Oz the Great and Powerful

Congrats Red... I must admit though that it's too bad the whole movie isn't shot in the black and white 1.37 ratio ;-)

Another win for the Atom as well

Prep just finished for reshoots going on now.

It honestly looks like Alice in Wonderland, but with a male lead and a green color palette as opposed to blue. I guess the next trailer will have to win me over. Any word on whether this is getting the 2K or 4K treatment?

I'm hooked, can't wait to see it. Flying Monkeys! - can't beat that.

Jarred....a little help please;

Looking at IMBD, i can indeed see that the film was shot @5K RAW on the Epic in 3D. So far, so good. But, there is no mention of a IMAX DMR blow-up, just the 1.44 : 1 (IMAX 3-D version) under aspect ratio. I know you don't have anything to do with IMBD (where do they get this info from by the way??!) but over here in the UK, i've got 2 good cinema options. A brand new IMAX or a 4K projector at the other cinema, both up the road from me.

So now the question.....has the film been mastered at all in any form of IMAX print, or is it best off watching the D-Cinema 4K(?) 3D master?? Hopefully this is another issue that ODEMAX will solve....a proper projection standard!

TIA, Simon

Love the texture and fill of the movie very much.

I really like the "Technicolor" look applied on digital (or scanned negative) recently. Even in The Hobbit, the grading choices of which some folks at one well known cinematography forum trashed into the oblivion. As much as I dig moody desaturated or slightly underexposed images, my eyes need that kind of colorful explosions every once in awhile. Talking about the classic technicolor look, I loved the new Galaxy commercial with lovely miracle from the heavens in a lead role. First time I saw it I thought they used a scene from one of her movies, the grading and the film grain is totally believable. Well fooled.
