So I heard this movie thing that they call IMAX. I don't know exactly, what that is. All I know it's better than the regular movie. So I thought, cause IMAX sounded big to me, literally. But what IMAX is for? I bet it's little more costly that the regular movies. So, what's good about IMAX?

Well, IMAX is not your ordinary big screen. It is much more than that and can be shown only in a few theaters that are equipped with their projectors. The frame of an IMAX film is way, way bigger than your average film and this makes for a wider screen angle and resolution.

The IMAX screen is twice as big as a regular movie screen. And the experience is so incredibly awesome. The surrounds sound is also much better than a regular cinema screen. I haven't been to one since I was nine, though. The last one I went to was in the 90s at Liberty Science Center and I enjoyed my time there was a child. I made me panic because the room was either rotating or it appeared that way because the screen was so big. I think everyone should go to one at least once.
