  Cinesphere, the worlds first permanent IMAX
Cinesphere shows between 7 and 12 features a day to as many as 752 people each time, distinguishing it as having one of the highest seating capacities of any IMAX facility.
Cinesphere's IMAX projector is the world's first and is the only one which is actually owned by the facility using it (all other installations lease the equipment).
For the creation of the IMAX film "Skyward", the Cinesphere was temporarily fitted with mixing facilities in the middle of its seating area so that the soundtrack could actually be crafted in the environment and over the sound hardware it would ultimately be enjoyed with.

 Cinemas-Toronto
Cinesphere, built to play larger format Imax movies, doesn't usually play regular movies.
This is made up for by the fact that it is at Ontario Place, one of the best spots to be in Toronto on a nice summer's eve.
Previously I didn't include the Cinesphere on the ranking because I didn't think it was fair to the other theatres, but since that time I've become rather less "fair" in general, and I think the theatre qualifies because it does play regular features.

 Eye Weekly - Bollywood wares - 11.16.00
According to the unofficial canon of Respectable Foreign Films, India's contribution to the cinematic world begins and ends with the art-house works of (the admittedly brilliant) Satyajit Ray.
But the Indian studios also have their version of the big-budget blockbuster, and the immensely popular Mohabbatein, which screens this weekend at Ontario Place's Cinesphere (Friday and Saturday at 8pm), is a perfect example of Bollywood at its best.
While I would personally recommend viewing Mohabbatein's majestic cinematography and above-average production values on the ultra-big Cinesphere screen, there are a handful of other options for those who already have plans for this weekend.
