That helped them get IMAX-sized picture quality without the format's film cameras, which are notoriously bulky, hard to operate and loud (not a great thing for dialog scenes). It's not a huge spoiler to say that Endgame pays tribute to the MCU's legacy - and part of that involves some of the largest scale superhero battles we've ever seen on screen.ĭirectors Joe and Anthony Russo shot their Avengers films with a custom 6K version of ARRI's large-format Alexa 65 digital camera. And everything just kept rolling from there. That first phase of films was successful enough to lead to their first team-up, 2012's The Avengers. It started as an experiment for Marvel, connecting Iron Man with the forgotten 2008 Incredible Hulk, and eventually Thor and Captain America. Avengers Infinity War and Endgame are the culmination of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, a 10-year pop culture journey that spans 22 films and multiple TV shows. It's fitting that the first films to be shot entirely in IMAX are some of the biggest movies ever made. They're always super-sized, offering up to a 26 percent larger image than traditional widescreen theaters - all the better to see Marvel's heroes finally smack down Thanos. So, unlike The Dark Knight, they don't awkwardly jump between multiple aspect ratios. And while we've seen the format used before for action sequences in blockbusters, Avengers Infinity War and Endgame are the first to be shot entirely with IMAX cameras. The technical advantages are clear: IMAX screens are much larger than normal theaters, especially if you're lucky enough to have access to a full-sized IMAX. After seeing Avengers Endgame in IMAX, I kicked myself for not doing the same for Infinity War.
