I don't get the channel personally, but I was curious to know of the IMAX films it's airs, are the films presented full screen (16X9) or are they pillarboxed (since IMAX aspect ratio are smaller than 1.78:1)? For a HD image produced from a IMAX (70mm horizontal) source, the image must be pretty startling.

All of the ones I have watched are 16x9. The images are great.

They aren't shown in the IMAX OAR, but at 1:78 to 1. All the 3-D films are presented flat, obviously.
