No. It is a high quality huge screen.

What is IMAX? (http://www.imax.com/ImaxWeb/imaxExperience.do?param_section=whatImax&param_sub MenuSelect=whatImaxSelect)

I also have ridiculous motion sickness. What I do is simply stare off far into the distance at the bottom row and use my hand to shield the screen when text is displayed. I've only experienced that at one and only one theater. Never had problems at any other theater. There is also dramamine and those wristbands.
