Saw a Movie At the IMAX & I feel even though I was at a good distance all seats are too close.
Go any further back & you are too high & eye level above the screen.

Thoughts or am I buggin?

I went to IMAX once and wasn't impressed, and think that's the biggest problem with theaters

They need to make an OLED theater screen just have big ass OLED video wall, give people an experience they can't get anywhere else

the 3D shyt was trash, IMAX has to do with the dimensions of the theatre room itself not the image quality like THX is just the way the room is designed not the actually sound system

Regardless of how you feel, just make sure you are watching a movie on a true IMAX screen.
Right. There's maybe half at most of the IMAX theaters that really IMAX. I saw Transformers 2 on a domed IMAX and that ish was too overwhelming

This, and also a movie filmed for IMAX viewing (example: Dunkirk). I always sit in the middle rows closer to the back and I have no complaints
