There is nothing like that here, so the DVD's are pretty much the only game for me, except for a few fresh foreign films, those we usually can get on in theater.But for those films that need the truly big screen effect I have the large projector... sure, not quite the same, but when considering the alternatives... sitting in a dark room, with popcorn and close to the screen kinda gets you in the ballpark... I know, I know, clark will tell us the projector black sucks...

Yes, I feel very lucky here especially as there is constant stream of news telling us in how much trouble is the the Australian cinema/film industry. I apologise for the ugliness of the last sentence, but as I noted minutes ago I am in the process of the morning coffee ceremony and its been a hot night for spring; 28 Celsius outside when I got up at 5.45.
I have thought of a projector, indeed I nearly put one into the living room here as its big enough (main area around seven metres square) but I know the screen would never be wound up. At least here I have to go into the TV room!
We have a lot of cinemas and I think, given the restrictions of release dates around the world, we get a very good selection at reasonable prices. It helps I live in the city and can easily get around. If I was prepared to walk I could still get to 17 screens within a 30 minute walk, which is pretty good.
