July 20, 2012 - Batman 3 / Wally Pfister on next Batman movie being filmed in IMAX
Scooped on Tuesday, July 20, 2010
There now exists the possibility that you may be watching the next Batman movie in IMAX -- for the film's complete running time. "I can't say until I read the script, but it would certainly be my preferred, amazing goal to shoot the whole movie in IMAX," The Dark Knight cinematographer Wally Pfister told MTV. "I must say I'm a huge IMAX fan. I like IMAX more than I like 3-D," Pfister continued. "Chris' films are so densely layered and have so much going on visually in every way that IMAX helps enhance that because of the scope and the scale of it — it becomes a much larger canvas to paint on. That's what we found on Dark Knight."
Pfister also admitted that he wasn't "a big fan of 3-D. I liken it to my View-Master I had 40 years ago. Are you really getting more out of the story with 3-D? When you separate those different planes and you're creating artificial depth, it looks phony to me."
