FYI -
After I picked up my telescope from Rob's place today, I dropped by
the Aliente Station IMAX theater to see if it was fake or not. When
I asked at the box office how big the screen was, the girl said it
went from the floor to the ceiling. I asked again, then clarified
that I wanted to know if it was one of the "fake" IMAX screens, only
58 feet instead of 72. She called a manager, who escorted me to the theater.
Unfortunately, it appears to be fake. I do not believe the screen is
72 feet high. The sound seemed okay, though I just walked halfway
into the theater before I realized the screen was too small.
They are charging IMAX prices ($15) for Star Trek. Granted, it is a
bigger screen than where I saw Star Trek, but it is not an IMAX.
