💥 Attention Film Buffs! 💥
Get ready for an unforgettable cinematic experience as Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer comes alive on the biggest, baddest screen in town – at the IMAX: The Ronson Theatre! This masterpiece isn't like your average film; it's been carefully crafted and meticulously edited for your viewing pleasure using none other than IMAX 15/70mm, the gold standard of motion picture photography.
This cutting-edge film format delivers images of jaw-dropping clarity, boasting a ridiculous resolution of up to 18k! Yes, you heard it right, 18k! That's 4 times sharper than regular 4k digital cinema. Not too shabby, huh? 🤩
Weighing in at a hefty 270kg, this colossal reel has traveled all the way from IMAX's film labs in California, smashing records as the longest IMAX 15/70mm film print ever produced, even eclipsing Nolan's Interstellar by a whopping 13 minutes!

That's not all! IMAX: The Ronson Theatre at the Science Museum is extra special 'cause it also rocks one of the world's eight IMAX 15/70mm and IMAX GT Laser combos. That means you're in for an immersive, story-telling bonanza like no other!
