Wanna hear what the HK IMAX version is like before I order it and make mine a 2 disc set.

So my IMAX disc arrived today. Took some screenshots against the UK version for comparison:
(Images can be clicked on to view at full-size)

The whole film is IMAX (not just certain scenes like Dark Knight, Transformers 2, etc.)
And the hard-coded subs are English too:

Many thanx 4 pics .. But I thought no film had yet been shot entirely in the IMAX format? i remember Christopher Nolan talking about the difficulties of shooting in the format for long periods on the special features disk for Dark Knight Rises.

...is this some kind of post-processed digital imax conversion? i do know that they do that all the time 4 movies shown in IMAX theatres.

I think it might be.
You can see it is slightly zoomed in (by looking at the left and right sides in comparison with the UK non-IMAX version) but the image is extended either on the top or bottom. So you do get more of the image shown

Made my Steelbook a 2 disc set in anticipation of the arrival of this disc.

Would love to replace my disc with that. Could you tell me where you ordered?

EDIT: Thanks Flip, but HOLY OVERPRICED BATMAN! As usual, I will be steering clear of YesAsia. I'll keep my eyes peeled on Ebay.

Well, ended up breaking down and buying it. It was a whole buck cheaper at Play-Asia, so I got it from there since I also had some credit I hadn't used. Ended up getting it at a decent price, I think.

I was very worried about that glue based on many comments, and turns out it was very easy to take the slip off, 45 seconds tops. Maybe I had a different type of glue, but by starting with rubbing the back and then gently pressing your thumb on the two on the front without pulling it too soon, it came pretty easily.

Well, that sounded dirty.

I just kept wondering that this so called IMAX version, is it really really IMAX? or is it just open matte?

*yeah Bunk, are you really talking about steelbook?

Cloud Atlas 2 Disc IMAX Big Screen Edition.

Spoiler

So, you just added the HK disc to the German steel, correct?
Or is there a release I'm not aware of?

 

[Punker76]

Bought this steel and a UK disc to swap out. A big THANK YOU to those that said i needed to swap out for an English disc due to subtitle issues.... Watched the movie through and NO SUBTITLES need for "alien language" at all. So cheers for making me buy a pointless UK disc to go in this steel.
Honestly, i come on this forum for useful discussion, helpful advice, not to waste my money.

No, not the UK disc. The only edition with IMAX is the Hong Kong version available here at YesAsia!

Hey, on the German disc, the 'alien language' is translated into German on-screen, so you need the UK disc to understand what she is saying. It was not pointless buying it.

Yes, that's what I said.
HK = Hong Kong.

Thanks for the pics, & the info!

I don't know how anyone can watch those conversations without subtitles, but good for you.

Maybe next time wait and decide for yourself, there was no rush to buy the UK disc, it wasn't going anywhere.
