Tenet is better for this, in that it's a taller aspect ratio, but it still doesn't have the full effect. Watching Interstellar from a digital version is just disappointing because these amazing space and planet scenes never open up in the way they should. It makes them fantastic showcases for the best TVs.Įxcept… not on the streaming versions. In these sections, the picture is taller than regular widescreen movies, and what this means for home releases is that instead of having black bars at the top and bottom of the screen, the picture fills the whole TV in IMAX sections. Since The Dark Knight, all of his movies have at least had sections filmed in IMAX, if not large portions of it.
Anyone who's followed Nolan's career knows the man loves IMAX large-format filming.
