Colorado is home to two of only 25 theaters in the country with IMAX 70mm projectors, which directors like Nolan say give audiences the “best possible experience” — both of which malfunctioned last weekend, to the frustration of Front Range cinephiles.

Regal officials did not respond to a request for comment.
While tickets for Thursday’s screenings are already close to sold out, those lucky enough to nab a seat, whether in Denver or the Cinemark Carefree Circle in Colorado Springs, can expect to fork over at least $25 for the show.
