The BFI London IMAX is the largest cinema screen in Britain. It measures 26m by 20m with a total screen size of 520m². However, if showing a film with an aspect ratio of 2.39:1, only 283m² of the screen will be in use, or 365m² for a 1.85:1 film. The auditorium seats 485.[7]
Despite the cinema having the largest screen in Britain, when showing in the flagship IMAX format (70mm film) at an aspect ratio of 1.43, it does not offer the biggest image. That can be claimed by the Vie Manchester Printworks, which has 11m² more image area than the BFI IMAX in such aspect ratio.

Cineworld IMAX SPECTRE Premiere - A CMA Video Production, Birmingham
Following on from our project with UK Central, we continued our work with some of the most exciting projects in the West Midlands as we were commissioned to film the gala launch of the new Cineworld IMAX cinema at Resorts World Birmingham at the new NEC complex.
Just days after Resorts World Birmingham opened to the public, Cineworld launched its latest cinema in the region with a star studded VIP premiere of the new James Bond film, Spectre. Our task was to capture the glitz and glamour of the evening and to talk to the guests who were there to see Daniel Craig as 007 in the latest film in the James Bond franchise.
The IMAX cinema at Resorts World Birmingham was officially opened with the cutting of a ribbon before the screening of Spectre and the Cineworld theatre was well received by the assembled guests of celebrities and public. Among the celebrities in attendance were Danielle Lloyd, Jasper Carrott and the cast of The Only Way Is Essex. Classic British iconic cars, Jaguar, Aston Martin and Land Rover, were also on show to add to the glamour of the occasion. The brand new cinema also features a Starbucks and the Sky Bar offering stunning views of the whole Resorts World Birmingham and NEC complex.

How '1917' Was Filmed To Look Like One Shot | Movies Insider
Golden Globe-winning 1917 is a serious Oscar contender. It stars George MacKay, Dean-Charles Chapman, Colin Firth, and Benedict Cumberbatch and was filmed to look like one continuous shot. Cinematographer Roger Deakins explains how he and director Sam Mendes did it, from digging up a mile of trenches to attaching cameras to cranes and drones.

7 reasons why I HATE the CINEMA
7 reasons why I hate the cinema - Many people know that I have always loved going to the Cinema. But in recent years a few things have started to creep in that are in my view, devaluing the Cinema going experience. Hopefully Cinema operators can watch this video and make the necessary tweaks to get it back on track. Instead of having cinema without soul. I'm not some kind of cinema snob I love cinema but these small things need fixing as soon as possible.

► About Odeon
Odeon is a cinema company operating in the United Kingdom and Ireland, which along with UCI Cinemas is part of the Odeon Cinemas Group. It uses the famous name of the Odeon cinema circuit first introduced in Britain in 1930.
The first Odeon cinema was opened by Oscar Deutsch in 1928, in Brierley, Staffordshire, although initially called Picture House. The first cinema to use the Odeon brand name was Deutsch's cinema at Perry Barr, Birmingham in 1930. Ten years later Odeon was part of the Rank Organisation who continued their ownership of the circuit for a further sixty years. Through a number of sales and acquisitions in the early 2000s the company was purchased by Terra Firma, which merged Odeon and UCI Cinemas to form Odeon UCI Cinemas Group. Most UCI cinemas then took the Odeon brand name in 2006. Terra Firma sold the company to AMC Theatres in November 2016.
In 2016, Odeon was the largest cinema chain in the United Kingdom by market share (although the Irish cinemas were also included within this figure).
► About Vue
Vue Entertainment (otherwise known as Vue Cinemas, and stylised as vue), formerly SBC International Cinemas, is a cinema company operating in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland. The company was formed in May 2003 by the acquisition of Warner Village Cinemas by SBC and the subsequent rebranding of the business as Vue. As of 2017 the company has 85 cinemas in the UK, making it the third largest cinema chain in the country, with 813 screens, including 265 3D screens, 11 Extreme Screens, 7 Gold Class screens, 3 Scene Screens and Bars, and 2 IMAX screens. The company's flagship site is Vue West End, the former Warner Village cinema in Leicester Square.
The company expanded through a number of acquisitions, including the Ster Century chain, Apollo Cinemas and Multikino. In June 2006, Vue's executive team completed a management buy-out with the backing of Bank of Scotland Corporate, taking a 51% stake in the business and buying the four remaining Warner Village sites it had been operating under contract from Village Roadshow.
The company was bought by the private equity firm Doughty Hanson & Co in 2010. In June 2013, Doughty Hanson & Co announced the sale of the company to the Canadian firms OMERS and Alberta Investment Management Corporation for £935 million.
The company's original slogan was entitled The Future of Cinema, which was announced from its opening in May 2003 until November 2015. Thereafter, the company decided to have a makeover, and – with a new rebranding and black covering instead of orange – renamed the slogan as Big Screen Entertainment, respectively. The slogan has remained the same since then.

The Science Museum is home to a huge IMAX Cinema and through the summer there are lots of chances to see 3D films on a grand scale and be totally immersed in the action. This summer will be the first time a spectacular new wildlife film -- 'Penguins 3D', narrated by David Attenborough -- has been shown anywhere in Europe.
For details of films showing in our IMAX Cinema, check out the website.
