>> Exactly how close do you sit? <<

I have a 60" Kuro screen. I sit about 8 feet away.

Ditto.

>> Watching a 60 inch TV and watching a 100" or larger screen is a different experience. <<

Without a point of reference, it doesn't matter. My plasma looks bigger than the big screen at my local AMC when I watched Young Sherlock holmes this afternoon from the rear seats. It all depends on how close you're sitting. The smaller screen can provide better resolution and a more film-like experience.

>> There's a cinematic feel you get that I've never experienced from a television..not one can give you the cinematic feel of a large projection screen. <<

I don't have a room in my house that would make projection feasible or more advantageous than a plasma.

I have 52 and 42 inch panels here.I use neither for movies anymore.
It's one of those things. Until you experience it at home, you won't understand.
