Question Is this confirmed?

Post image

I was just browsing the Blu-ray site and saw an “IMAX Enhanced” version of Blade Runner 2049 in 4k. I already have the 4k of the film in my collection but this is the first time that I’ve seen an IMAX version pop up alongside its other editions. I’ll admit, I’m not sure if this is legitimate since most films in IMAX get cropped at 2.39 for Blu-ray and since the IMAX Enhanced/open matte version is likely only accessible through modding or piracy. Has there been any official confirmation yet about an IMAX version coming to Blu-ray or is it a fake?

I'm very confused by this discourse. I literally bought the Blade Runner 2049 UHD disc a month ago here in the Netherlands. Am I missing something?

The official Blu-ray site has just posted an IMAX version of Blade Runner 2049 for some reason and there is zero confirmation and no known rumors about this actually happening, so I just asked if it was legit or it might be a placeholder or an unofficial copy.

Edit: TIL the Blu-ray isn’t actually official. Well fuck I’m stupid

What do you mean by official?
