Dolby Cinema at AMC is the BEST DAMN movie theater today

2016-12-12
hey guys I'm outside here in front of a Dolby cinema AMC theater it's one of only a handful in the entire US and it's a personal favorite of mine because this is honestly the most technologically advanced movie theater that you can all go to today now it starts with this signature entrance behind me it's 5 2 K Christi projectors that form a 12 meter digital entry display those are their words not mine so let's go check out to see what makes this theater so special now it all starts here in the projection room behind me we have a dual 4k christy laser projection system and the content there is designed specifically for Dolby vision HDR you know that buzzword high dynamic range it brings 500 times the contrast ratio pure black levels and expanded color gamut and twice the brightness of your normal theater now this first demo footage shows a white dot that pops up on there 60 foot screen it showcases what the industry standard is right now a 2001 contrast ratio at 14 foot Lambert's and that's really a measure of luminance then all of a sudden this new white dot appears shining over twice as bright at 31 foot Lambert's and all of a sudden its pitch black they still tell you the projector is on and this displays the contrast ratio of 1 million to one inside this theater if you look around the walls are entirely matte black and that's really to control any ambient light and reduce reflections but anything that can be black in here is black this theater is also fitted with Dolby Atmos it's the reference quality sound system that can decode object based surround mixing think of really being able to track a single object like a bird as it moves from one part of the room to the back and to the front now just to give you an idea of the layout here there's five in screen speakers there's 48 surround sound speakers placed anywhere within this theater and then there's four subwoofers on the ceiling now the seats here are also totally teched-out these are leather they're nice and soft and comfy they recline backwards also the leg rest pops up what makes these special is there are transducers in these seats what that really is is a speaker that hears a low-frequency sound think of like an explosion or a crash and the seats Rumble to the movie you're actually watching now if you're wondering these theatres only play to the movies right now but they are equipped for 3d ticket prices are a little higher it is a premium experience but AMC is planning to have 50 of these in the US by the end of 2016 but this is for the video file the audio file is honestly the purest and I'm one of those guys who buys blu-ray discs because I want the best quality available the best fidelity this is the place to go and I wanted to show you what makes this experience special and it's all about the tech inside Oh
