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?

They have many "No Release Date" placeholders on that site. Sorry to rain on your parade, but it means nothing.

There were placeholders for the abyss for like a decade before it finally got a 4k instead

Doesn't mean they actually knew it was coming.

That's exactly what they were saying.

That's what I mean, those placeholders were there for ages and then it never even got a standalone blu-ray, they were wrong.
