Scott asked me to make the appointment.

We have our room for this month. Please note the date.

The meeting next month is moved as the room was reserved for the 15th.

I used the 22nd at the request of Scott.

Cheers,

I'll go further than that: I think regular films shown in IMAX are
annoying... tons of distortion, stright lines becoming curved, etc.
So, I wonder too..

[BLUG] BZFlag game tommorow

We had a successful session of BZFlag last Saturday with 7 people
playing and a few people wrote me afterwards to say how fun it was. The
server barely broke a sweat, which is good. Tommorow night we'll play
BZFlag again so I hope you'll be able to join. I've expanded the wiki
page for the gaming sessions and provided links to instructions, a
schedule of games so that you can see what is coming up and have time to
prepare. And also for the commercial games, it will help you consider
whether you'd want to buy the game or not. We'll probably play a
commercial game every couple weeks.

http://www.kerasotes.com/imax/ShowTimes.aspx shows them having it at
least through Wednesday, May 9.

I wonder if they'll have an IMAX version of the film or will just
project the standard film on the IMAX screen. I've seen films projected
the latter way and it's not as impressive as true IMAX.

Re: [BLUG] Spiderman 3

That's what my source (i.e. wife) must have saw!

IMAX Theatre Kerasotes ShowPlace 16 in Indianapolis swings into action beginning on Friday, May 4th with the opening of  SPIDER-MAN 3: THE IMAX EXPERIENCE. See More – Hear More – Feel More!


Sounds like they'll only have it for opening night though?

ShowPlace 16 on Indy's south side as an IMAX Theatre, which is
incorrect.  As far as I know, the IMAX at White River State Park in
downtown Indy is the only IMAX theatre in the state.

Apparently I was mistaken - imax.com lists both the White River IMAX and
the Kerasotes Showplace 16 theaters as IMAX.  Aparently Showplace 16
recently added IMAX.
