Discussion on Dolby Atmos and IMAX
Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast.
Oh my god.
So the very beginning, I felt like I feel I heard
like this kind of reverbs and like delays and echoes.
OK. Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast.
It was like suddenly mute everything.
It was, to me, was like Dolby Atmos one.
Not the one, one, one, one, one.
And then like in the movie theater, at the beginning of the movie theater,
I get into the space and then you suddenly you just, I get it.
Yeah, like the like the scene where
even in a powerful airplane,
the pin drops.
Yes.
Even in a small sound.
That one, that one.
That one.
You felt the same experience?
Yeah, yeah.
Damn.
Oh, I have to pay extra fee for that.
Yes, yes.
It's an extra what?
700 yen?
For Dolby?
Damn.
Yeah, I felt it.
Dolby.
Yeah.
Love it.
Wow.
What the fuck is Dolby anyways?
That's like sound system, kind of.
OK, then what's Dolby Atmos?
What's the difference between a Dolby and a Dolby Atmos?
I don't know.
I don't know.
All these options.
Is there Dolby and Dolby Atmos?
Two different things?
I may be wrong.
Well, that's what I thought.
I may be wrong because now all these movie theaters have like different audio systems.
Yeah, like IMAX.
Right.
What's the difference between IMAX and a Dolby Atmos?
Explaining Dolby Atmos
Yeah.
And like, there's so many of them.
Right.
Right?
Right.
Like, I don't get it.
And what's so bad about a normal version?
I could, like, I was never in a movie theater and I was like,
and I never had a moment where I like appreciated that it's IMAX.
Like, oh, wow, this is IMAX.
I love it.
Like, I never had that moment.
Oh, really?
Never had that.
Have you?
I mean, it's not, I guess it's not only the sound, but like a screens and...
How's that different?
And it's like moving, no?
The screens are moving on IMAX?
Sorry, the sounds are moving like a...
What do you mean?
The sounds are moving on IMAX.
If you're saying from here, like, you know, sometimes the moving, like walking sounds are moving.
Is that usual?
Is that usual?
Is that what happens in usual movie theaters?
Yeah, I don't...
Yeah, I think...
Is that really?
That happens in usual movie theaters, right?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's a surround system.
Yeah.
It's the same thing as a surround system, right?
Yeah, yeah.
It's like a...
Like a...
Yeah.
That happens with earphones.
Yes, yes, yes.
AirPods.
You can do that in AirPods.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
So shouldn't it be something more extreme than that?
Like a better experience than that?
Because we...
Like...
Right?
Yeah.
Maybe just the quality.
The quality?
The audio quality.
Let me look at it.
Please, please.
Dolby...

So, Dolby Atmos has a speaker up above your head.
Right.
IMAXとDolby Atmosの違い
Okay, so what the fuck is IMAX?
Right, so that's the difference between like,
you have only L, R, stereo sound.
One up above it.
Above, ah, okay.
Okay.
IMAX wa eizou, onkyou, kuukan, sakuhin to iu

So IMAX is more like about the screens,
like about the...
Overall experience?
Yeah, the video itself.
Video itself?
Well, I mean, it did say
eizo, onkyou, kuukan, sakuhin to iu
sore wo kiyameta to iu.
I don't know how they kiyameta, but like...
True.
So that means IMAX have no
zujou no speakers,
but simply they just
higher the quality as, you know,
highest as they can?
Maybe?
Musicals eiga to itta

Yeah.
That's IMAX?
Or it doesn't have to be IMAX?
I don't know.
I don't think it has to be IMAX.
Oh, so you just have usual theater and 3Ds?
Yeah.
IMAX 3Ds?
I'm not sure.
That's the name of the movie.
I don't know.

So Dolby's are more like audio thing?
Audio, yeah.
And IMAX is more visual.
Okay.
Yeah.
At least we learned something.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That's good.
And now we know what's the differences between...
Yeah.
Like, I mean, we know those two are different things.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Right, right, right.
And with that being said, it's kind of hard to choose.
Like, okay, so I'm going to go watch, what, the Ghibli film.
Should I go for Dolby or should I go for Atmos?
Yeah.
Now we don't know.
Now there's another thing to worry about.
Right.
Yeah.
Like, if that movie was caught by the IMAX camera or not.
True, true.
And how, how, how...
Right, right, right.
So...
Right.
Okay.
