Does anyone know to what extent, if at all, Spielberg was involved in the conversion?
I thought that JURASSIC PARK 3D was well-done, 3D-wise. I doubt that Spielberg would let anyone tamper with his films without his OK.

I just saw it and it was like seeing it for the first time! I absolutely loved it and I got chills when we see the shark for the first time in all it's glory with the music playing. Hope others enjoyed it as much as I did and tickets were quite cheap here in L.A. only $4.

I just saw it too today and it's nifty that it still delivers the laughs and shocks - there were several seats in my area I could see jolting back in surprise at some of the jump-scares and there was also appreciative laughter for the humorous lines. The scene around the dining table with the wine bottles and Scheider, Dreyfuss and Gary is a master class in subtle comic timing.
The sound was terrific and the picture quality as pin-sharp as it was when I first saw Jaws during its 1979 national reissue, but I was expecting this presentation to be more "IMAX-ized." The screen was the correct shape for an IMAX viewing, but the movie itself was in its normal 2.39:1 ratio. How did it look to other people who have gone to it? I'm not complaining; as I said, it looks and sounds great, and it was a blast watching it with an audience.

What a thrilling EXPERIENCE. The picture clarity and the soundtrack really pulsates thru the screen. Had ME on the edge of my seat with those jump scares. My GF also was hanging on to me for dear life!

That's interesting. But since no sequence in the film was shot in anything other than 35mm anamorphic Panavision, the only way it could be IMAX-ized so that it would better fit the shape of the IMAX screen would be to crop the film at the sides, something that I guess Spielberg was loathe to do. So what makes it IMAX? The IMAX DMR (Digital Media Remastering) process basically adjusts the film so that it looks its best on the IMAX screen.
Since IMAX projectors are brighter than standard, without optimization, it would make noise and film grain more noticeable. So first they remove as much noise and grain as they can without changing any other attributes of the image, such as color or contrast. The filmmaker then uses that cleaner version of the movie and blends the original version back in to find the exact amount of noise or grain to create the perfect image. Then, if the filmmaker wants to, they can monkey with the aspect ratio. But again they are limited by what was originally captured in 1975.
In this case, it looks like Spielberg was happy with just having the original ratio projected clearly on a bigger screen.
