Stick with film people, it's a lot less hassle.
Oh, I definitely agree - if the invasion of "booth clowns" can be taught and paid accordingly to the skills required in running film as what the lot of us here know how...but, do pigs fly?

Digital installations and projection and upkeep can, will and will continue to be neglected just as film. The question is, will digital be neglected less so?

Remember, John-Q-Public, by and large, watches 4:3 origination material S T R E T C H E D out on their new 16:9 monitors (and everywhere a 16:9 monitor is in a public space)...so they aint so picky to begin with. You could probably run everything full-screen in a cinema and they'd go for that too!

Then, the definition of worse is when they watch a scope film STRETCHED out to a horrible 3.2/1 if they don't know how to set their resolutions right.

Tell that to them WallyWorld clowns with their 84" demo plasmas in front of their stores playing "D.K." all stretched out since they "effed" up the display settings. [Big Grin]
