    Isn’t the whole point of (real) IMAX movies to be captured on analog IMAX cameras and projected on analog film?

    There are less than 100 IMAX 15/70 analog projectors in the world right now. The majority of IMAX releases are now digital. Plenty of movies that were never filmed for IMAX to begin with are released in IMAX. You still get a bigger image and slightly louder sound, even if it doesn't make artistic sense.

    And hey, if it means getting more 2D animation in theaters, I'm all for it.
