⚠ This venue has closed (2023). Closed September 2023 when the Hall of Fame moved to Frisco TX; brief reopening in October 2023 and closed again since.

⚠ The 2021 listing records a xenon projector here, but this screen is 24.4m wide and IMAX specified that system for screens no wider than 21.3 m. Nobody has stated the projector directly, so we don't assert one — the score treats it as unknown rather than assuming the older, dimmer system.

⌷ 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

dark

Screen: 439 m²
Picture: 313 m²
Screen used: 71%

5.2 m of this screen's height — 29% of it — stays dark for an 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.
