Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice tickets go on pre-sale Monday, February 29th, and for those of you who want to see the big superhero battle on an appropriately big screen, IMAX has released a list of theaters worldwide that will be screening Batman v Superman in 70mm IMAX, IMAX Laser 2D and IMAX Laser 3D.
Zach Snyder filmed several of Batman v Superman's scenes in IMAX and even tweeted a photo of himself wielding some of the camera tech last year. It marks Snyder's first time experimenting with the format (Man of Steel screened in IMAX, but did not use IMAX cameras). While we don't yet know exactly which sequences utilized the format (though there were reports of IMAX cameras on the Chicago set where they filmed Thomas and Martha Wayne's iconic murder), but I'd be surprised if Snyder didn't use the tech to showcase the epic scale of the superhero showdowns. That's the kind of footage that makes the trek to a legit IMAX theater worth it...if you're lucky enough to have one in trekking distance, that is. Check out the list below via IMAX to find out.
In an effort to make Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice available to as many IMAX fans as possible in their preferred format, we will be releasing the film in both 2D and 3D formats and across our various cutting-edge projection technologies including our dual xenon digital system, IMAX 15/70mm film and our next-generation laser system.
