No, but would have liked to. FWIW-I am not sure if it would be full on IMAX, or some sort of partial/conversion.AWvsCBsteeeerike3 wrote:Did you see it in imax?Freed Roger wrote:They had it in IMAX for awhile.AWvsCBsteeeerike3 wrote:Dude, there are some scenes I could barely watch.

Free Solo was fascinating; and a lot less vertigo inducing climbing scenes than I was expecting.
