The hosts discuss the unique appeal of seeing 'Oppenheimer' in a 70mm IMAX format, highlighting the premium experience it offers compared to at-home viewing. They emphasize that forgoing the usual movie-going frequency makes splurging on such high-quality cinematic events worthwhile. The high cost of tickets is seen as justified for this exceptional experience.
“If I'm going to go out and see a movie, I'm looking for a premium, premium experience because there's you can do so much great stuff at home.”
“And in a similar way when it comes to movies, like everybody's got flat screens now, like everyone's got a pretty decent home setup and they can stream movies, and so I guess if you don't want to wait, that's why people are going out. But otherwise, if I'm going to actually spend the money to go up, I want to. I want to see it like Christopher Nolan intended, you know, in the full seventy millimeter Glory.”
“So that's what I'm. Excited, and I think it's worth the wait, and it's worth probably. I haven't even asked you how much you spent on those tickets, but I'm guessing they're like three x what we normally spend on going to the movies.”
