You can't even begin to understand how meticulously they reconstructed their genitalia until you've seen it in IMAX.
Worth it if you have AMC a list and can go see it in IMAX 70mm
Today was my 65th birthday, Ayala champagne and 2017 barolo. Tomorrow, The Odyssey on IMAX. Life is a constant struggle against unfair odds but thank you for your good wishes 🙏
The best way to see the daily chat dashboard is on IMAX
Yeah I just discovered this and I am over the moon. Gonna celebrate my birthday with the Odyssey on IMAX followed by my first ever Wendy's
They need a great earnings report, a case for future ad revenue, new viral shows and more expansion into sports. They are trending in the right direction but it feels like it will take a little time. They might make an acquisition (IMAX, Sony or another studio). But they are making a huge investment in NJ studio, so not sure they need to make an acquisition. I’m being patient and have owned Netflix since 2004 and have held through these fluctuations in the past, but patience is wearing thin.
I've got one IMAX position open in case more buyout news comes out (or The Odyssey opening weekend causes a spike) but other than that I'm out. I was basically a gambling addict tbh. I was mindlessly opening positions and taking £300 losses a day on top of the Micron stuff. Need to take a month out and only start opening positions when there's things that might cause price increases that I'm aware of.
Sounds similar IMAX SDX, reclining seats, must be the only one with this hotdog anomaly. The joke is popcorn costs a few cents.
Dude a hotdog is $8 at my local. But they also serve beer and cocktails and have the reclining seats and all that XD IMAX yada yada so maybe just a way different market. Popcorn is 12 and up
Coming to IMAX June 2026: NVDA has Fallen. Featuring Morgan Freeman as God
>Christopher Nolan's *The Odyssey* makes Hollywood history as the **first feature film** to be shot completely on native IMAX 70mm film. Every single frame is captured on large-format 15-perf 70mm film stock, utilizing IMAX's next-generation "Keighley" camera system. This shit is going to be absolute cinema at lincoln square
I got 2 IMAX 70MM tickets at Lincoln Square 13 for The Odyssey
Did they leak, they are going to take over IMAX?
IMAX is exploring a sale. Netflix is probably going to make a move but it hasn't been announced yet only that IMAX is cording different buyers you might see a big jump in Netflix this week or the next either way it'll be a short-term play get in it gets pumped because of the news that they might be buying IMAX and then get out
IMAX you bankrupt bitch. lol
AMC will buy IMAX
Stop releasing IMAX films, keep it for themselves and Netflix productions.
IMAX is valued at two billion. Netflix would drop half a percent at most.
Less for Disney since they recently announced their own IMAX competitor, and even less so for Paramount with the high debt they're taking on buying HBO. I feel Amazon with MGM, or Apple if they get serious about film, would do it, but I also feel like IMAX is at its peak with all these other premium formats coming in.
Aside from this being another big 'fuck you' to cinema industry from Netflix, there's not much benefit aside from IMAX being a very profitable company
You keep saying imagine IMAX at home. I don’t think you get the point of IMAX
Yes, IMAX having the same color treatment as every other Netflix show and movie. Exciting.
Imagine IMAX at home packaged with a netflix subscription.
Imagine IMAX at home though.
At an investor meeting in December, IMAX Chief Executive Rich Gelfond said his firm will be “an incredibly valuable player, either as a wholly differentiated publicly traded company or as part of a larger company.” Gelfond recently returned to work part time after taking medical leave due to a serious bout of pneumonia. IMAX stock has risen about 40% since last summer, though it is down 7% so far this year. Its market cap is about $1.85 billion, making it a relatively small acquisition for most potential buyers. One big question would be whether a Hollywood company that bought IMAX would favor its own movies over those from competitors. Every studio releases movies on IMAX and fights with rivals to secure the premium screens when multiple films open simultaneously. Netflix recently announced it will release a November movie starring Brad Pitt and directed by David Fincher exclusively on IMAX screens for two weeks before it starts streaming. Next February it’s playing the big budget literary adaptation “Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew” in IMAX and other theaters seven weeks before it hits the streaming service—its first full-scale theatrical release.
From the article: IMAX Is Exploring a Sale High-end movie screen company’s search for a buyer comes as premium theatrical experiences are growing faster than overall box office IMAX is exploring a sale and has approached entertainment companies as potential buyers, according to people familiar with the situation. The sale process is in early stages and may not result in a deal, the people said. IMAX’s search for a buyer comes as premium theatrical experiences are growing faster than the overall box office. Movies have grossed about $2.9 billion domestically this year, the highest total for the comparable period since before the pandemic, according to Box Office Mojo. Premium screens including IMAX accounted for 16% of ticket sales in the U.S. and Canada through early April, compared with 13% during the same period in 2021, according to data firm EntTelligence. IMAX, the best known of the premium cinema brands, accounted for 5.2% of domestic box office sales last year, compared with 3.2% in 2019, according to the company. It has taken big shares of hits like “Avatar: Fire and Ash” and “Project Hail Mary” that were tailored for its screens and marketed as spectacles worth seeing in the best theaters.

Berkshire is solid (better than any managed etf). I like your take two for the GTA release alone. Green energy I like morally but the profits haven’t been as fantastic as they should. IMAX I’m iffy on just cause it’s like investing in blockbuster at this point I think (despite it still being solid). And I’ve departed gold. I like it as a currency hedge but it’s basically just a risk asset today— and it’s already ballooned so much I feel like international large cap serves same purpose (re currency) but with actual returns instead of flat vs everything but dollar decline.
All my money is in Takes Two, Berkshire Hathaway, Gold, Green Energy ETF & IMAX
It's affordable if you just don't buy food there, ticket prices on their own aren't awful. Eat something before or after and then go. Does mean you redefine the whole theater experience a bit, it's not really worth going IMO unless it's an experience you truly can't get elsewhere like IMAX or something.
No idea, i can't see the future, but for earnings tonight, I'm following: IMAX, FLSR, MPWR, AAPL, post a ton of earnings this morning on GTX, FTI, ATI, PWR GTX is up 22% (i'm an idiot who sold it last quarter), and PWR is up 14% (been long for years).
MOVIE SCAB MOVIE SCAN DETECTED - YOU MUST WATCH “novecento” IN AN IMAX THEATER AS PUNISHMENT.
Theater attendance is up 25% compared to last year and this summer/fall has a ton of massive titles incoming (Toy Story 5, Odyssey, Spider-Man, Dune 3, Avengers, etc). Gen Z has started to embrace cinema culture to a higher degree than other generations especially with social media apps like Letterboxd taking off. If only these cinemas would build more damn 70 mm IMAX screens… All that is to say, I wouldn’t put that much money into AMC but I agree that AMC and other movie chains have potential.
I wasn't impressed by it in IMAX, if I could go back I'd probably see it in standard. It was a good movie just not amazing, you should still go see it tho
I bought some calls for IMAX next earnings call.
I must hate money. Just added to NOW (11% more shares), VEEV (23%), IOT (12%), GWRE (11%), and NTDOY (8%). My cost basis with NOW is at a level I'll stick with until a few more quarters of data. Primarily I'm watching non-current RPO and DBGRR. Still have room to add to IOT, VEEV, and GWRE. Cash position now sits at 7.7% of my total cost basis. About to refresh my data on NET and IMAX to see how close they are to when I'd open a position.
What's the ticker and what's the price you want it at? I'm begging for NET and IMAX to come down to more reasonable prices. I want a position but valuations are still nose bleed levels.
I heard it will be back in IMAX a couple weeks from now. Maybe I'll go see it in 70mm In NYC but not great availability left
Yeah wish I saw it in IMAX. Sound and visual was amazing.
Wanted to see it in IMAX but I think all the IMAX slots are taken by the Mario movie
You, a fool, buy LMT at the top because of WAR I, a genius, buy LMT at the top because of the IMAX at the air and space museum
Are they about to see Oppenheimer in 10k IMAX? 😭😭
😂. I had to check the IMAX stock price after reading your comment. It’s over $38 now. I bought a few hundred shares at $3 and sold them at $9 many years ago. For the last several years I’ve been stuck holding cannabis stocks. lol.
Simply impossible to keep up with this insanity... Shutting down this computer and going to see Hail Mary at the IMAX theatre. Need the distraction.
I don't know if you have ever been a movie theater before, but (for some movies) there is a massive difference between watching it in your bed with headphones and watching it on an IMAX screen with a million dollar sound system.
The second one in IMAX was unreal
AMC Entertainment Current price: $1.10 Short Interest: over 23% Outstanding Shares: 529.55 Mil Float: 525.8 Mil Currently, any Billionaire such as Elon Musk or Warren Buffett at ANY MOMENT could literally just come in with 525.80 Mil x $1.1 = $578.38 Mil to cover and then buy up every available share, and in turn literally own the IMAX LASER Theaters, which isn't a bad deal IMHO. With over 23% short interest, that would cause a short squeeze like in 2021. Just need someone with 578 Mil to yolo a short squeeze. Berkshire Hathaway has about $375 Bil in Cash Reserves, they could do it with less than 1% of their available funds and probably make bank on the Options.

Guardians of the Oil Tankers in IMAX now
Movie looks good https://www.reddit.com/r/SipsTea/s/ADKm36zyKe Definitely going to watch Operation Epic Fail in IMAX
IMAX, SNOW, and QXO also up after earnings. PRCT, WRBY, NU down.
IMAX on my watchlist as well. Also have SNOW and PRCT reporting for me. Also, surprised you missed it but TOI is reporting after the bell as well.
Ah, yes. It's them and not the guy going against the literal words of the Constitution that are anti-American. IMAX level projection.
Natasha Fernandes, IMAX CFO, is pretty good looking.
Sure, but I'm sure F1 fans won't mind. Probably pretty rad to watch in IMAX.
Some more IMAX news: >IMAX is collaborating with Apple TV to broadcast five Formula 1 races this year across at least 50 IMAX locations nationwide. • Miami • Monaco • Silverstone • Monza • Austin
Didn’t know IMAX was available on VHS
Kind of funny, but IMAX is an interesting stock. Valuation isn't bad in terms of looking at the PEG and forward PE. It's beating the SPY over the 1Y and 5Y. They actually has good gross margins and have been improving: [https://quickfs.net/company/IMAX:US](https://quickfs.net/company/IMAX:US) Pretty low float for a company too, with 43M available shares and like 19% insider ownership. Always find it interesting the places you can find alpha in the market. Also wonder with summer coming up and the new Nolan movie, if this thing has some legs to run in the short term. Here's the latest investor presentation: [https://investors.imax.com/static-files/740895ab-4110-4ac2-9a7d-b070cea0414e](https://investors.imax.com/static-files/740895ab-4110-4ac2-9a7d-b070cea0414e)
Going ham into IMAX. Study your history and see how movies thrived in the 30s.
IMAX holding up. Movies were also strong in 1930 jfyi
IMAX calls, movies did amazing in the 1930s.
Got my IMAX tickets early for Melania. Front row seats. Gonna be a packed house with all the freedom loving’ patriots of America. Let’s GOOOOOOO. 🇺🇸 🦅
Such a patetic loser. No more IMAX movies in the U.S.A..
Nobody: Nolantards: “this movie was shot for IMAX, how can you watch it on your phone? You hurt me deep in the an00s”
$IMAX is better play
Paid $50 for me and her to watch Avatar in IMAX. I swear it was the same fucking story bro what direction?
It's excellent. Watch it in IMAX 3D
The more I'm looking at this, the more I'm thinking this Street Fighter movie might have the potential to be the best movie ever made. The production side is looking elite. The fight coordinator's been had a hand in most of the best fight scene movies since the 90s, he's got 2 John Wicks and Collateral on his resume. The director of cinematography's from Deadpool. Production manager did fucking *Saving Private Ryan* and all of the Dark Knight movies. The director did the Eric Andre show? idk The casting is a fucking *dream team*. 50 Cent is Balrog. WWE's Cody Rhodes is Guile, and Roman Reigns is Akuma. They're gonna paint Jason Momoa green. The guy that plays Zangief is 7'2" and 350 pounds. This is gonna be a goddamn human Monster Truck show. I've got *impeccable* fucking taste, and my spider senses are telling me this movie's going to slap. We're on the eve of an age where movies become AI slop, and a knockout movie showcasing the irreplacably-human artform of fine action choreography is something the world needs. *This* is why motherfuckers are willing to ask daddy for $110bn to buy WBD. This is a Paramount flick, and I'm gonna watch this shit in IMAX 4 times. Bullish
Can you watch TV/movies on it like you were on a god-like IMAX stadium?
IMAX is better, they win either way
Gyna: "Here's the Honor Magic V, the first IMAX-certified 7.9" flipscreen phone" Korea: "Here's the Galaxy Z TriFold, a 10" flipscreen" America: "Here's the same phone you bought last year, but this ones Pumpkin Spice"
Yes, it is absolutely true. 90%+ of movies are shot digitally. IMAX movies are also mostly done digitally. Tbf, it's often confusingly marketed as "Filmed for IMAX" for digital vs "Shot with IMAX" for film.
Not entirely true. FIlm is making a little bit of a comeback esp if it can be marketed as a premium experience ala IMAX
Guy projects more than the local IMAX theatre
I have seen chainsaw man 2 times (3D , IMAX) and I’m going to see it again this weekend in Dolby.
If the vote passes for doubling the authorized shares and those additional shares become outstanding shares and the stock price holds up, their debt will be less than 3x their market cap. Their competitors CNK and IMAX both have more debt than market cap. RUN, another wild and highly shorted stock, has debt \~3x market cap. KSS, another meme darling, has debt over 3x market cap. Many companies have higher debt than market cap. AMC stock price will likely bump up upon the next earnings report and that will further improve the debt2marketcap ratio.

“The boss of IMAX has allegedly been partying so hard, his ex-wife cannot get a $4.5 million life insurance policy on him”……calls?
Do they do IMAX installations as well?
Revenue up 36%. Still posts a net loss is one of the strongest quarters for movies ever. You buy this shit and you deserve to lose money. Buy CNK or IMAX instead.
i love the AMC in our town. Chairs are so much more comfy and stretch out all the way. It’s not the IMAX experience as the other one but a way better physical atmosphere.
Most of them are big tech companies and I do have some in ETFs. An example company of a “just because” is IMAX. I have I think 1 stock of it… and that’s just cause I bought it when I first started out and I was trying to figure out the platform and how trading works. I could sell it but like why not hold it “just because” it’s not worth that much anyway at 1 stock sooooo. Idk
This is some IMAX level projection right here
IMAX is looking great. Now positive on the day after a bizarre morning sell-off following a good earnings release.
When I read the report from IMAX, I immediately bought some calls but I wish I would've bought some puts, I'd be way up. The whales are whaling on me 🐋
The concrete data from IMAX published today. https://www.imax.com/pr/imax-corporation-reports-q2-results
Crazy how this comes out and IMAX free falls
How are people feeling about IMAX in advance of earnings tomorrow, the 24th, and with The Odyssey movie selling tickets a year in advance?
