The Dark Knight, Christopher Nolan’s sequel to Batman Begins, stars Christian Bale as Batman and Heath Ledger as the Joker. This ultra-noir Batman, from the director of Memento, is nothing like the camp 1960s TV series, and is even darker than Tim Burton’s Batman and Batman Returns.
Six sequences, including the incredible truck-flip (achieved without CGI), were filmed in IMAX 70mm format. With an aspect ratio of 1.43:1, these scenes occupy the full IMAX screen, though the majority of the film was shot on 35mm and is framed at 2.4:1.
I saw The Dark Knight at the Krungsri IMAX cinema at Siam Paragon in Bangkok. The IMAX cinema at Major Cineplex Ratchayothin in Bangkok also has a 70mm projector, though its screen is slightly smaller.
