It's official - AMC has converted the Uptown to feature digital projection 3D! This is fantastic news, since one the theatre is one of the largest curved screens on the entire East Coast. Secondly, while the sound has always sounded fantastic lossless audio via digital projection proprieties will sound amazing - notably with tighter bass. Gazing at Fandango's site in terms of pricing, adult full price is $14.75, that's not bad considering at one point AMC was mentioning that the theatre would get the ETX treatment, which would have made the ticket price even more expensive - thankfully they didn't - I am sure, but not positive that pre-noon reduced pricing will also still be available - Regal and Cinemark are notorious for not doing this. I'll be doing a followup review of the presentation aspect of the film at the Uptown (as well as a review of the film itself) - but for once, I'm glad AMC ponied up the cash to convert the theatre to digital projection - recent past 35mm prints have looked terrible - colors looking drained, light balance off.
