If you go to Imax.com they have the complete list of IMAX theaters that are showing the movie.
Scenes where actors were on extreme sides of the screen were still at the extreme sides of the screen, nothing cut off.The film was shot Super35, so they'd open up the mattes
Now that i know it's OAR, I can't wait to see it
Reloaded on IMAX does appear to be in its 2.35 OAR (I did a quick measurement by using my fingers to approximate the height and width ratios, and it was about 2 1/3 wide as it was tall. It does feel a little taller though, perhaps due to the enormity of the its size relative to viewing distance.Hold up a dollar bill at arms length and face the screen - if the image is the same shape and proportion as the bill, then you're seeing 'scope (2.35/2.40) properly (within reason).
Woah, back up. ROTK on IMAX? When did this happen? The cuts are going to be MASSIVE on that film if they run it on IMAXI also read this in an article when AOTC came out... but not that it was definite, merely that it was being looked into.
I would love to see ROTK in IMAX. Since it was shot in Super 35, they could just open up the mattes. Judging from the interactive editing supplement on the FOTR Extended, the effects were hard matted to 1.85 or possibly even 1.66, so there wouldn't be too much picture lost there.

If they have the film in anything but 2.35:1 it's MAR and should not be viewed by men, women, children or pets
You're missing the point of OAR, it's not about amount of picture, it's about the RIGHT picture.Well, if Peter Jackson ends up saying 1.66 is the RIGHT amount of picture for an IMAX presentation, who are you to say it's not?
