Will cross ₹500 crore tomorrow, the first-ever Hollywood release to achieve the milestone.
(net collection)
My 2nd watch for Spider-Man Brand New Day, this time in ONYX at DLF Avenue Saket, Delhi.
It's a ~35ft LED Screen with 4K and Dolby 7.1.
Good:
👍 Best Video Quality for a movie screen with peak brightness and sharpness, this is basically a huge LED TV.
👍 2D presentation, so if you are bored of 3D like me, this is the best premium format you have in Delhi.
👍 Flat 1.85 aspect ratio with more image than a standard screen.
Bad (minor things).
👎 The side walls are bright yellowish in color, so they reflect light from the screen, the theater isn't dark, even after lights are off.
👎 The seats are somewhat comfortable, but they don't recline.
Hope they upgrade seats and walls someday.

With a gross collection of ₹73 crores and net collection of ₹60 crores, Spider-Man: Brand New Day has the biggest opening for a Hollywood movie in India.
That too on when The Odyssey is already running and there are no IMAX shows.
The screen is standard size, scope aspect ratio, Dolby 7.1. since 4K projector, but the 3D DCP for Brand New Day is most probably 2K.
This was my first ScreenX Experience. I chose this format especially because they promoted it aa "Shot for ScreenX".
👍 What I liked about ScreenX is it really feels immersive. The 2 side screens (even with extended footage in lower quality) looks unique.
Note: not all scenes are extended in ScreenX but all the action scenes definitely are, so, that's not a big issue.
👎 BUT my problem was with 3D. I have watched almost all Hollywood movies in last 10 years, in IMAX. Going from IMAX 3D to normal 3D feels like a big downgrade, and that's exactly what happened here.
You can also see in the image that the main screen is slightly dimmer than the side ones.
2D ScreenX would have been better. Even when I booked on first day, it was showing "2D ScreenX" but the theater called next day about the change to 3D. It was a bummer, but I wanted to try it once.
I may still watch a movie in 2D ScreenX here but will not recommend a 3D ScreenX as your first choice, but cool choice for a rewatch.
Overall, I am not a big fan of 3D anymore, even in IMAX - I prefer 2D over 3D. So, this is a subjective opinion.
Movie is awesome, btw.

Hi Mods, please do not ban me. 😅 If self-promotion is not allowed, you are welcome to remove this post.
I know I am late, but while looking for the best way to watch The Odyssey in India, I realized there was no single guide comparing all the available premium cinema formats.
So I spent quite a bit of time researching and comparing:
You can use it for future movies as well.
I tried to keep it simple, not too technical, so even someone who has never heard of Dolby Cinema or EPIQ, or is confused about IMAX formats, can understand the differences.

The Trailer at SDCC highlighted the Portals scene, Captain America returning infinity stones (no new footage), and Tony's line: "If you mess with time, it tends to mess back."
Joe Russo has also said this about the re-release: "It’s going to connect the story of the two movies. There’s a natural progression from Endgame into Doomsday, which is also inclusive of all the other stories that have been playing out."
I believe now it's almost confirmed that the new footage will be Cap returning infinity stones, because that's what most fans wanted to see for a long time, (and this movie is a lot about what fans want).
Such a scene can be easily integrated in the movie, by putting it at the end, maybe after the title screen. It can work like a short story on its own and ends with Doom watching all of this and maybe meeting Cap.
Because I think changing the movie by adding new scenes in-between will feel weird, like they are messing with something great.
And putting a bunch of new Doomsday scenes at the end will feel like just a trailer.
So, they need a proper scene that will be the "natural progression" Joe Russo is talking about.
Great Casting.
Ryan himself pitched the idea to Marvel Studios.
Shawn Levy (Deadpool and Wolverine) will direct.
Releasing in 2028.
All 34 IMAX screens in India will present it in 1.90:1 aspect ratio.
Out of which 17 are Laser with IMAX with 4K projectors.
Normal screens will be in the regular 2.39 cinemascope version.
PLF Flats will get 1.85 aspect ratio DCP, similar to IMAZ size.
PLF Flat Screens include all EPIQ screens in southern India, Prasads PCX, Dolby Cinema, HDR by Barco in Hyderabad etc.
