It won't since the film was mixed in 6 channel audio only. That's Nolan's MO for his films' technical specs. Still, you will have a great time in Velocity with Oppenheimer and the ticket price too is very appealing ay RM 20 vs GSC IMAX RM 33 of the film

1U and Pav BJ's screens are (as close to) 1.9:1 aspect ratio in size, basically they are wider than Velocity's tall 1.43:1 (1.33:1 specifically). All these halls are single laser, so the tallest image you will get is 1.9:1. This comes down to how much you hate letterboxing ala the black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. I watched Oppenheimer in 1U and the whole screen was able to be filled and that felt very engrossing considering how big 1U's screen is (at least in Malaysia's standard xd).

Velocity on the other hand, you will get letterboxing no matter what, but considering how big and tall the screen is, the movie's image will still look enormous and captivating despite having letterboxing during the 1.9:1 scenes.

IMO, Velocity is the better spot for Oppenheimer. Even without Laser as I watched this movie in the previous Xenon hall twice because of how big the movie image is. Personally this time around, I plan to visit Pav BJ for Oppenheimer's rerun, since this hall wasn't open during Oppie's original release and I visited all IMAX halls in Klang Valley with this film for review purposes (except I-City as that's too far and inconvenient for me)... However, man, me reminiscing my time in Velocity with this film was such a blast and it's convincing me to just go there instead... Ahhh.

I visited IMAX halls 7 times for Oppenheimer during its original theatrical run before the TGV Laser upgrades, all Klang Valley's halls except I-City's. That and I have bought the blu ray and watched the shit out of the film. So... Oooof. Im watching the film in BJ Pav to just check the tick box la, that and assessing a true IMAX film here.

Velocity is the bomb, hope you enjoy your time there.

No fucking way an IMAX ticket like that would cost RM65, actually RM80 for the normal rate.

Considering the screen looks to be 1.9:1 with single laser projector and 12 audio source, the more than 2x the price of adult IMAX tickets is for what? Luxury food and more comfortable seats? I guess for this is targeted at the niche audience of couples wanting a luxury, romantic date but with IMAX? Even then, technical specs wise, you're still getting the same experience from TGV, even GSC'S IOI City Mall's IMAX Laser (granted, this hall is half the audio channels, but the screen is still 1.9:1 and modestly large). As you said, @megakeygen_zero, it's not even the largest, let alone a 1.43:1 one, and for that price premium!

I need some first party measurements of the screen, dude. Second largest while being more than twice the price of the normal rates is obscene for what it currently offers technical specs wise.

*Dune re-run price update TGV got back to me and has changed the price to RM20, curious if they will refund the surcharge to those who already paid RM35 for the tickets prior to the adjustment. Overall, great news and happy TGV did this.

Original post:
Huh, you're right, and it's not only Sunway Velocity, Central I-City TGV IMAX tickets for Dune's re-run is also RM35. Everywhere else at TGV IMAX is RM20. I've contacted their customer support for details, hopefully I will get a reply soon.

Closing notes

I'm quite excited to finally experience a full 12-channel audio IMAX film since that's what TGV has been marketing about with their entry to the IMAX Laser scene. That and my IMAX Dune experience during its original run was bonkers. I do hope the Velocity ticket price gets addressed soon, but otherwise, can't wait for this film and its sequel to come out.

PMed the CS now it’s back to RM20

Meanwhile in Australia Madame Web only one showing a day in IMAX. Dune 1 still have two slots per day lol
but tbh, I wish TGV would do a special back to back screening for Dune 1 and 2 at Velocity IMAX

Hi all, would like to ask from your experience:

Usually how long does a blockbuster mega-movie like this remain screened in IMAX cinemas? For example, would something like IMAX Dune Part 2 normally still be available in 2 weeks or 3 weeks time from today?

The problem is that Malaysian tend to be more simple minded and cant brain the long ass, less action alot of talk type of movie.

Heard someone in the hall commented why talk so much and there is not much action of the almost 3 hour seat time for dune part 1 rerun (same comment goes to oppenheimer too which have MORE talking)

Best is some of them left the hall dont bother wait the Part Two sand worm sneak peak 

Guys, are all IMAX theatres charging RM35 for Dune Part Two? Checked out a few and seems all are this price now.

Ok, thank you both for confirming. Do school-going kids need to provide any kind of proof to get the student discount? Both my kids are above 12, so they can't get the kids price.

Problem is they are in secondary school. There are no student cards for school kids. I believe only uni and college have student cards.

I'd wait for Furiosa.

Anyone up for Oppenheimer rescreen in TGV IMAX

Just like everywhere all at once this gets another rescreen in TGV hahahaha

Tried ScreenX with the last Fast & Furious series movie just to try it out.... Honestly it's just a gimmick. Majority of the screentime is still the middle screen while side extension screens are black, only during the action sequences where they filmed it wide, will the side extension screens come to life. When that happens, it's pretty cool and somewhat immersive, but honestly I don't think it's worth the extra bucks just for that. IMAX is way better for the immersiveness in terms of the vibe and scenery. I'd say go for the Getha Lux Suite one if the high price is fine with you, at least you're getting the premium movie watching experience.

I see I see.... I vaguely remember Tenet had a rerun last year but I guess I rmb wrongly haha!
