Katie was a pleasure to work with for talent stories/coverage. It’s a shame when good people are pushed out.
I’ve only seen one movie in IMAX – Minority Report. It was on an actual Imax screen in an actual Imax theatre.
Here’s the rub:
The image projected was exactly the same size as a regular movie screen. It took up roughy 1/3rd of the Imax screen.
They simply projected a regular movie on a screen that was bigger, 2/3rds of which they didn’t even use.
It was a rip-off, plain and simple. I’ve never been back to Imax since. Fact of the matter is, unless the film is SHOT in Imax, throwing it up on a bigger screen does absolutely nothing.
I can’t believe how they keep conning people with this bullshit.
Anonymous, you have a twisted definiton of the words “good people”. You people in the tabloid business LIE for a living. You make up stories, some of the most damaging character assassinations I’ve ever read, all the while hiding behind your “sources” – read the sources in your head you made up over coffee and a donut. I can’t wait til all of you lose your jobs.
They should all fold if there is a God especially those bottom feeders at Bauer otherwise known as Outta Touch and Lies & Sh*t
