… the good news is, it’s going to be in IMAX 3-D. Here’s the news, courtesy of the folks at Cinematical:
What bits will zoom out into the audience? [Sources at EMPIRE magazine]Â say that 25 minutes, total, will be in 3D, which will be split between the opening and the finale. They are guessing that it’s Voldemort’s attacks and the Astronomy Tower showdown.
Haven’t read the books (I know, I know…) so I’m not familiar with either of those scenes, but I have to say I’m impressed how the big magic battle was handled at the climax of HARRY POTTER AND THE ORDER OF THE PHOENIX. It never descended into a boring showcase for CGI effects, and so many magic scenes do. It was genuinely exciting and surprising.
