Hi there everyone, I am actually looking forward to watch Iron Man 3 in IMAX

However, I don't know how to tell if the movie I chose is IMAX in the TGV's cinema...all I can see is that they put on ' ** ' beside the movie's name..such as: Iron Man 3**

What does that mean? The only thing I can see is that they got IMAX 3D..but I watched it in 3D already...now wanna try something different biggrin.gif sorry for asking stupid question ><

To be honest, the trailer for Star Trek on IMAX has better effects than the movie itself. smile.gif

I wanna pay a visit to TGV IMAXX for ironman3 but the booking was full in very fast pace.
But I was in GSC IMAXX for several times. If not wrong, the screen is the largest in msia and it is CURVED!
But the sound system is soso only.. Not sure about TGV's.. I should try it asap..

After googling myself, Im down to these 2.

Since MaXX was refurbished from previous IMAX, is it as good as IMAX?

No doubt bout GSC MAXX has bigger screens. How bout the quality? Notice that not much info bout GSC Maxx aside from screen size.

TGV's IMAX Specs
GSC's MAXX Specs
What's your say for those who tried or know anything bout MaXX or IMAX?

I like it coz the screen is bigger than TGV Imax but it's not as sharp. Plus it's usually not that full and the seats are ok.

Bigger screen, that's all. MAXX tends to show 3d films more than digital 2d though.

tbh, after watching imax at sunway, i don't see much difference than normal 2D movies. and the imax hall is also small like regular hall.

so i choose GSC Maxx as the winner hands down thumbup.gif
the feeling of watching movies at the superscreen is really top notch! i still remember how exciting it was watching transformers at gsc maxx. the hall is so big, the screen is so big, the hall curvature, the seat is damn comfy n spacious and the sound system is out of this world. you are really really immersed in the movie world! thumbup.gif

looking back, i regret not having try the original imax at times square before it closed down sad.gif
the hall is really2 damn good for enjoying movie

Never been to GSC Maxx, but i have been to TGV's IMAX quite a few times. The pictures were unbelievably clear, and the sound system was incredible!

But i have to say that the ticket prices are expensive. I always save them for high-octane blockbuster movies only though. The ones that have high amounts of action, special effects, and CGI scenes like Transformers or Avengers. That's where IMAX's crystal clear image projections really shine.

Normal movies are not worth it in my opinion. Unless you're filthy rich that is!

If you haven't been to gsc shitty maxx, better don't, I kid you not. Not sure about earlier times, but since dec 2012, till like may or something, it's a terrible experience, terrible. I was only comparing it to sunway's tgv, and it was already bad.
The sound was just okay, clarity was normal normal lah, not sure about 2d. Seating was not the best, but leg room was indeed enough. It was all good until tried sunway's. Mindblown, and sound system wasn't nearly as good. Thought it was just me, but seems the laser sound system in gsc maxx ko ady, said by a sound engineer and gsc "didn't" want to calibrate it anymore. Never been to gsc maxx since.

GSC maxx seats close to a thousand people, many times more than a normal hall.
the problem with such huge capacity, is :
long lines to buy popcorn
long queues at the toilet before and after the movie
long queues exiting the cinema after the movie finishes
before the movie starts, constantly having to adjust your legs, to allow people to walk to their seats (each row has 70-80 seats).

Of course IMAX, MAXX is like a pirated version of IMAX lol.
Last time used to go for MAXX, but ban it after the staffs do not clean the hall properly, spreads of popcorn under the seats, yuckkss.
