Giant Screen Experience — Attraction in Dearborn

They used to be able to show actual IMAX format feature films but lost their IMAX license- or whatever reasoning- and the "full screen" experience is not the same without IMAX produced movies. I saw Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, Dark Knight Rises, and Interstellar there over a decade ago. Parts of those movies were shot on actual 70mm IMAX film and seeing those at Henry Ford were breathtaking experiences that I sorely miss as an avid theater goer.

We bought the “All Access” pass at The Henry Ford, which was supposed to include one Giant Screen Experience showing. The one we picked was “Hot Rods and Muscle Cars.” We were told that that particular movie was $20 extra, which doesn’t make any sense. It was awful. A YouTube video covering the same topic would have been just as good or better. It was a low-quality, low-budget, little-effort documentary. The giant screen was completely wasted on this “movie.” If this was the “upgraded” movie experience, what are the other...
