While IMAX offers a variety of screen options, including digital versions of the 70mm aspect ratio, these viewings are often cropped to fit the auditorium in which they are being shown.<\/p>\n<p>There are only 25 screens in the U.S. that can play physical film reels of Nolan&#8217;s &#8220;The Odyssey&#8221; and only 41 locations in total globally. Those screens are limited because the majority of movies are filmed and screened digitally. As demand for &#8220;The Odyssey&#8221; soars, IMAX has introduced late night and early morning screenings to accommodate some of the demand.<\/p>\n<p>As of the weekend, IMAX ticket sales for &#8220;The Odyssey&#8221; have surpassed $140 million worldwide. That&#8217;s a little more than 20% of the $652 million the film has tallied globally. Yet, the IMAX locations represent less than 1% of total screens.<\/p>\n<p>The theatrical industry saw a similar phenomenon in 2023 when Nolan released the\u00a0Oscar-winning biopic &#8220;Oppenheimer.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/interstatemovingexpertss.com\/?p=1461\">How NBCUniversal\u2019s deal with YouTube could jumpstart the next chapter of the streaming wars<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Overall, &#8220;The Odyssey&#8221; has dominated at the box office, with second week ticket sales dropping just 27% from its domestic opening weekend. Typically, Hollywood blockbusters will see ticket sales fall between 50% and 70% each week after its debut. A smaller decline often indicates strong word of mouth and repeat viewings. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The Odyssey&#8221; has also benefitted from audiences booking tickets in advance. Some screenings of the film became available for purchase in July 2025, a year before its release.<\/p>\n<p>For the last three weeks, &#8220;The Odyssey&#8221; has run in theaters with relatively low competition.

and &#8220;Resident Evil&#8221; on the horizon, &#8220;The Odyssey&#8221; will have to share screen time with others. <\/p>\n<p>However, IMAX&#8217;s next 70mm commitment isn&#8217;t until Dec. 18, when Warner Bros. and Denis Villeneuve&#8217;s &#8220;Dune: Part Three&#8221;
