    It depends… I’ve seen Jack the Giant Slayer in IMAX and it wasn’t worth it. I intend to see it many times though, so I’ll probably watch it in a regular theatre first and if I hear it’s worth paying for IMAX I’ll do it 🙂 Do you know if it’ll also be released in digital 3D or only IMAX?

  2. Will it just be shown in IMAX in North America? Or will it be released in IMAX worldwide? I would love to watch it in IMAX!!

  3. One time I went to see IMAX in a theater
    and it was the SAME thing as the original regular one.
    So it was a very deserving $3 ripoff
    I hope your guy’s theaters aren’t like this
