The Dome only has the one curved screen. The confusion might be that it is referred to as a "flat-surfaced" screen rather than a louvered (strip) screen or even a lenticular one. Spiderman was shown on it (masked down for 1.85 of course). The theatre did install a flat screen (and a fake drop ceiling) for Evita, but that was at the studio's demands.

I just found out that I'm able to exchange the tickets. Therefore, I'm no longer selling them. I don't think anyone wanted them anyway. :)

The Cinerama Dome has only one curved solid screen, unlike the Seattle Cinerama which has a louvered curved screen (for 3 projector Cinerama) and a standard screen in front. 70mm films were not really made for the deeply curved screen such as the one at the Dome. Picture info at the middle top and bottom will be missing. No way to avoid that I'm afraid.
