'''Visuals:''' The sequence begins at a three-dimension grid of spheres, spinning around the space, as a voice instructs to prepare for the "IMAX Theater Optimization Cross-Check". At the conclusion of this voiceover, the spheres turn past 180 degrees and end on a slope. After a quick fade, the sequence ends up at another grid, and zoom out of the space to discover a rectangle of spheres. After this, the vertical axis expands by a fair bit; and then flips on its side and expands its size, to reflect IMAX's large screen (a female voice comes in mentioning the screen has been maximized). Another quick fade happens, and a wavy pattern forms from a flash. After the male voiceover returns to "power up" the projectors, another flash happens that wipes away the wavy patterns. Then a {{Color|cyan|teal}} landscape of waves forms, almost akin to a virtual desert. After falling into one of these waves, it dissolves away and then a spiral of spheres converge into a cylinder. After a short piano theme and another voiceover mentioning IMAX's sound system, the spheres break from the cylindrical formation and return to the spiral. The camera looks upward and the spiral pattern in its entirety, with the female voiceover mentioning the sounds had been perfected. Initially, the camera rises slowly, but after the female voiceover finishes; the movement quickly accelerate, and streaks of light come into the frame while the male voiceover comes in to "prepare the audience for maximum impact". Shortly after this voiceover finishes, another flash happens, and the spheres dissolve into the same wavy patterns as before. The screen then cuts away to another wavy landscape full of spheres, although not quite as detailed. Finally, after the male voice mentions "the world's most immersive movie experience begins...", the IMAX logo dissolves in. After a couple of seconds, the announcer finishes his sentence with "...now." Right as he completes the sentence, one final flash with a sphere around it hits the screen, before fading out. | '''Visuals:''' The sequence begins at a three-dimension grid of spheres, spinning around the space, as a voice instructs to prepare for the "IMAX Theater Optimization Cross-Check".
