So can I ask who ran it back in ‘98-'01? Can’t remember. Cause Cineplex Odeon merged with Loews in 1998 and ran in Canada as Loews Cineplex (even though most – if not all theatres in Canada – retained their Cineplex Odeon branding) until late 2003 when it became Cineplex Galaxy.
The only real noticeable branding style change in the Toronto area of that era was when they built the Sheppard Grande Theatre back in 1998 with that rather nasty new Purple/Orange Cineplex Odeon Logo.
The ETX system is plain bad. This joint venture between IMAX and AMC is terrible. Not that it looks bad… but I saw Star Trek in #6’s large screen, and sneaked a peak at #7’s Star Trek. Looks exactly the same!
Watching digital cinema on 4K projectors is as good as it gets, IMAX /ETX don’t have anything better. There aren’t any 8K projectors… well not yet anyways. Not worth an extra 3 or 4 dollars or whatever it is.
At least they called it ETX (Enhanced Theatre Experience) in Canada. In the states they apparently just label these theatres IMAX, like every other IMAX theatre. Big backlash has happened. Check out the “Mini-IMAX” section under IMAX on Wikipedia.
