Apollo 11
 
I just got back from it with the family. Incredible documentary. No narrator, just raw, ultra high quality (for 1969) footage, most of which has never been seen by the public. Highly recommend it if you live near a showing. The sound at blast off was intense. And seeing Johnny Carson strolling around in the crowd was kind of surreal. IMAX only runs until Thursday I believe.

Also this was my first time going to one of the new laser IMAXs. Definitely worth the extra drive time. Look for the triangle icon below.

Just wanted to share, figured this crowd would enjoy it!

Just returned from seeing this on a "regular" IMAX screen.

It was amazing. Anyone who's a pilot and was born before 1980 is going to love this.

A must see on the big screen. Thanks for the rec.

So I guess I won’t see it being born in ‘82.

Wonder why 1980.

Thanks for the heads up. Big Apollo fan and yes, I was born when Kennedy was promising the moon. Vary sad that Millennials have no clue what an achievement this truly was.

You are a vary sad person.

Born after 1980 and I appreciate greatly the entire Apollo project. Also the Gemini project. Also the Allied victory in WW2. Also the American victory in the revolution. Were you even alive then?
