@kalaavidanaanu @TheNameIsYash ತುಂಬ ಚೆನ್ನಾಗಿ ಹೇಳಿದಿರಿ ಸರ್❤️ ನೀವು ರಾಕಿ ಭಾಯ್ ಅಕಾ ಯಶ್ ಅವರ ಬಗ್ಗೆ ಹೇಳಿದಾಗ ನನಗೆ ತುಂಬಾ ಭಾವುಕವಾಯಿತು. ನನಗೂ ಅದೇ ರೀತಿಯ ಭಾವನೆ ಇದೆ.
2014ರಲ್ಲಿ ನಾನು SFO ಆಫೀಸ್‌ನಲ್ಲಿ ಕೆಲಸ ಮಾಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದಾಗಿನ ದಿನಗಳು ಇನ್ನೂ ನೆನಪಿವೆ. ಆಗ ಕೆಲವರು ಕನ್ನಡ ಚಿತ್ರರಂಗವನ್ನು ಟ್ರೋಲ್ ಮಾಡುತ್ತಿದ್ದರು. ಅದು ನನಗೆ ತುಂಬಾ ಬೇಸರವಾಗುತ್ತಿತ್ತು.

@kalaavidanaanu @TheNameIsYash ಕನ್ನಡ ಸಿನಿಮಾವನ್ನು ವಿಶ್ವದ ಮಟ್ಟಿಗೆ ಕೊಂಡೊಯ್ದ ರಾಕಿ ಭಾಯ್‌ಗೆ ದೊಡ್ಡ ಧನ್ಯವಾದಗಳು. ನಾವು ಅವರನ್ನು ಸದಾ ಪ್ರೀತಿಸುತ್ತೇವೆ. ❤️‍🔥🙏🏻

@kalaavidanaanu @TheNameIsYash ನಾನು ಕನ್ನಡ ಸಿನಿಮಾಗಳನ್ನು ಸಮರ್ಥಿಸುತ್ತಾ, “ನೀವು ರಾಮಾಚಾರಿ ಸಿನಿಮಾ ನೋಡಿದ್ದೀರಾ?” ಅಂತ ಕೇಳುತ್ತಿದ್ದೆ. 😄
ಆದರೆ KGF 1 ಮತ್ತು KGF 2 ನಂತರ ಎಲ್ಲವೂ ಬದಲಾಯಿತು. ಜನರು “ವಾವ್, ಯಶ್!” ಅಂತ ಹೇಳಲು ಶುರು ಮಾಡಿದರು. ಅಷ್ಟೇ ಅಲ್ಲ, ಬೇರೆ ಕನ್ನಡ ಸಿನಿಮಾಗಳ ಬಗ್ಗೆಯೂ ಕೇಳಲು ಶುರು ಮಾಡಿದರು. ಅದೇ ಅಲ್ವಾ ಬದಲಾವಣೆ ಅಂದ್ರೆ! ❤️

@CineContents Being a Kannadiga, 100% agree with that! ❤️ No one can match Telugu people’s love towards for cinema. 🙌🎬
This is the perfect example, the 9:15 PM show is already houseful, and there are still 9 more hours to go before the show starts! 😂🔥

@KGFAnalyst * 💰 Economics — Premium screens generate higher ticket prices, so theaters consider whether the expected demand justifies giving up a regular screening.

[NameIsSagar @SagarRocz]

@KGFAnalyst 🌎 Local market demand — In areas with a large Indian/South Indian audience, demand can influence whether a movie gets XD.
* 🎞️ Format availability — The movie needs to be supplied in a format compatible with the XD presentation.

[NameIsSagar @SagarRocz]

@KGFAnalyst * 📊 Expected audience — Cinemas prioritize movies they expect will sell a lot of premium tickets.
* 🗓️ Limited XD screens — There are far fewer XD auditoriums than regular screens, so they have to allocate them carefully.

[NameIsSagar @SagarRocz]

@KGFAnalyst Cinemark XD release because XD is a premium format, and the theater chain decides which movies get those screens based on several factors:

* 🎬 Distributor/studio demand — The movie’s distributor has to request/secure XD screens.

[NameIsSagar @SagarRocz]

@KGFAnalyst 🎥 IMAX: A separate premium format with its own specialized projection, sound system, screen design, and presentation standards.

[NameIsSagar @SagarRocz]

@KGFAnalyst Cinemark XD and IMAX are both premium large-format experiences, but they aren’t the same.

* 🎬 XD: Cinemark’s premium format — huge screen, 4K projection, 11.1-channel surround sound, and powerful audio.

[NameIsSagar @SagarRocz]

@KGFAnalyst Simple way to say it:

XD is Cinemark’s answer to premium formats like IMAX—not IMAX itself. 😎🎬🔥

[NameIsSagar @SagarRocz]

@KGFAnalyst in XD at Dallas/Austin without stronger archived evidence.

[NameIsSagar @SagarRocz]

@KGFAnalyst Kantara (2022)
This is less clear. The archived theater list I found shows Kantara at Cinemark Southpark Meadows in Austin and Cinemark Dallas 17 & IMAX in Dallas, but it does not identify those screenings as XD.
So I would not say Kantara 2022 was released

[NameIsSagar @SagarRocz]

@KGFAnalyst * Cinemark Pflugerville 20 + XD (Austin area)

So yes, KGF 2 definitely had Cinemark XD availability in both the Austin area and DFW market.

[NameIsSagar @SagarRocz]

@KGFAnalyst Looks like KGF2 release in XD format not Kantara… I got some facts though
KGF Chapter 2
The 2022 U.S. theater list shows KGF Chapter 2 at:
* Cinemark Frisco Square + XD
* Cinemark Tinseltown Grapevine + XD
* Cinemark Lewisville + XD
* Cinemark North McKinney + XD

@KGFAnalyst First to book the Kannada version & let my friends know! Now 10+ going together 🔥 Also watching the Telugu version back to back, including the 9:15pm show! 😀🎬 Proud to see a Kannada movie in XD never heard of this happening before! ❤️‍🔥
