IMAX Reacts to iPhone Duo's 1:1.4 Aspect Ratio Displays

Production theater company IMAX has responded in a mixed way to Apple's embrace of a 1:1.4 aspect ratio on the iPhone Duo's inner and outer displays. The boxier ratio happens to be very close to the classic "full-frame" IMAX aspect ratio, which comes from the geometry of the company's original 15-perforation/70mm film system. IMAX's official account said, "Love this for them," but then added, "Still not watching movies on a phone..." Pre-orders open October 16 ahead of an October 23 launch.
