PremiumCinemaIQ rates this IMAX room C, 32/100 — a modest premium screen, 239 m² of lit picture, with 30% of the screen never lit. The projector rests on a dated source, so the score is indicative. Data read 21 September 2026.
Respectable, but not the full IMAX proposition.

The projector here comes from a 2021 industry listing that we haven't been able to re-confirm. IMAX has converted a lot of screens to laser since — where we could check, 100 venues listed as xenon had been upgraded. Treat the score as indicative.
Why IQ 32
⌷ Size is scored on the picture, not the fabric. This screen is taller than its projector's frame, so a chunk of it is never lit and doesn't count.

IMAX digital — what most “IMAX” showings actually are

- Screen used
- 70%
4.9 m of this screen — 30% of it — stays dark for a IMAX 1.90 showing. The projector here can't produce the full 1.43 frame, so the top and bottom of the screen are never used at all.
