Imax and Major Cineplex, Thailand’s biggest cinema operator, have struck a deal for three Imax With Laser installations in capital city Bangkok. The agreement will expand the Imax screen total in Thailand to seven.

 

Two of the three installations are upgrades in central Bangkok locations. One is at the relatively new Icon Cineconic at high end shopping mall Iconsiam. The upgrade will be fitted before the venue is used for the CineAsia exhibition and distribution industry convention in December.

The other upgrade is at Siam Paragon, where Major’s Paragon Cineplex is currently one of the largest and most visited multiplexes in the country.

Anyone else noticed how dramatically ticket prices have risen here? Also, Major is no longer honoring senior discounts like before. The movies here used to be a bargain.

400 baht for the red sofa at the back which seats two, is really not that expensive at all mate..

No, because Thai horror movies are not filmed in Imax.
