Borys Kit for the Hollywood Reporter:
Paramount is re-releasing the classic 1981 adventure movie, directed Steven Spielberg, executive produced by George Lucas and starring Harrison Ford, in Imax theaters next month, ahead of a splashy debut on Blu-ray.
An official announcement is expected this week, but some have already noticed the movie on on schedules for Imax theaters. Should be fun for movie mavens looking to see the original Indiana Jones movies on as big a screen as possible.
Doesn’t an iMax movie have to be actually filmed in iMax? Or are we talking LieMax…?
The IMAX benefit is debatable, but after seeing the restored JAWS in 4K, there’s little doubt that if a film is properly digitized and restored from original elements; we’re likely seeing an infinitely better presentation of the film than was possible even during it’s original theatrical run.
