Ryan Coogler’s extremely nominated vampire sensation will give audiences yet another chance to experience it in 70mm IMAX.<\/b>
\nWhile, yes, you can now fire up HBO Max and watch Sinners on your phone, Ryan Coogler\u2019s vampire tale is best experienced on the big screen. Preferably, the biggest screen possible. And now, on the heels of the film\u2019s record-breaking 16 Oscar nominations, it will soon be returning (yes, again, but we\u2019re not complaining!) to select 70mm IMAX theaters.
Variety reports that Sinners will soon be back on the giant screen ahead of the Academy Awards (the ceremony is March 15) and \u201cpotentially beyond,\u201d which is in keeping with Hollywood\u2019s habit of re-releasing films that collect gold on Oscar night.
Still, in Sinners\u2018 case, it feels less like a cash grab and more like a celebration. Sixteen Oscar nominations is almost as jaw-dropping as the movie itself, after all.
Other multiple nominees will also be returning to IMAX, including One Battle After Another (also in 70mm) and Marty Supreme. Surprise Best Picture nominee F1 may also make a 70mm IMAX return, though that\u2019s not yet confirmed, according to Variety.
Watching a movie\u2014especially one as gorgeous and powerful as Sinners\u2014in 70mm IMAX offers a reminder of the value theaters still hold for audiences in a time when streaming has become the most popular way to watch. Large-format junkies will get another visual treat this summer with Christopher Nolan\u2019s The Odyssey, which breaks new ground as the first film entirely shot using 70mm IMAX cameras.<\/p>\n
