Robots in Disguise

There’s nothing like a gigantic summer blockbuster filled with robots and explosions to bring out the movie fan in all of us. Last Wednesday, the Maryland Science Center premiered Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen in the St. John Properties IMAX Theater and it’s been nothing but long lines and sold-out shows ever since. Over the weekend, thousands of people streamed in to bear witness to the latest fearsome battle between the Autobots and Decepticons.

Unlike the “IMAX Digital” retrofits of existing theaters that have cropped up recently, the Maryland Science Center features the true IMAX experience, with its signature five-story screen and a surround sound system blasting 11,000 watts into your eardrums.

And if that wasn’t enough IMAX goodness for you, the Science Center will premier Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince on July 29.
