Will Godzilla in IMAX 3D use 15/70 film or digital?

I'd like to know because I'll be going to the Palisades Center IMAX and since I last went they've added digital projection and now have both types. This isn't one of those toned down "fake" IMAX theatres, this is the real deal with the huge screen and everything. I'd like to see this movie in the best way possible, which is why I'd like to know if any theatres are using film or is this movie going to be digital everywhere? Also, is there a discernible difference between 15/70 film and digital on a huge IMAX screen, if it's digital will it be able to fill the screen? Thanks. :)

The movie was shot digitally in 2K, And it will be ''converted'', Or rather upscaled to IMAX digital which obviously isn't anywhere near the quality of real 70mm IMAX projection. IMAX digital is mostly a gimmick but it's still better than a regular digital projection. The huge sound is what draws me to IMAX theatres. In a nutshell, It is indeed LIEMAX.

thanks Johnsmith

I naively thought all big budget digital fliming was done in 4k these days but apparently not.

So to anyone that has seen the trailer at IMAX is it still the best way to see the movie?
