I'm talking about the difference between real film projected on a large screen and home video. The difference is night and day. IMO video is still quite pathetic and barely represents the original image. Film IS the original image. I suppose people like to use complaints about sticky floors and noisy kids as a rationalization for investing so much money into such vastly inferior technology. What next? No live music because the audience coughs too often? I do have news for you guys. There are projectionists that actually know how to do an excellent job of focusing the projector and keeping it in prime running condition. There are theaters that actually patrol for people being disruptive and there are theaters that actually mop the floor.
