In Reply to: "Does a 480p DVD at home really look as good to you as film in a theater?"… posted by David Aiken on September 18, 2007 at 17:17:20:
and good luck with the cataracts. I'm 49 and my eyesight is worsening. Even with contacts, in my usual chair from 12' away, the 42" plasma is not as clear as it could be.
Anyway, I agree with your statements about the generally poor PQ and overly loud sound in theaters. Here in the Washington DC area, we're lucky to have two new chain theaters opened locally. I've only been a few times, but every time the picture quality has been excellent and the sound was at a reasonable level. The last time I went, I thought the picture was out-of-focus, but I realized I was sitting too far from the screen! Anyway, it still looked better than any SD or BD I've seen at home.
My point is that a good theatrical presentation of actual film is still better than a well-done SD or even BD. However, I enjoy BD more than SD. After seeing BD, even the best SD still has some color bleeding and other artifacts that aren't so obvious in BD.
