Why I love digital projection

As you know, I saw Harry Potter. You don't know that I saw it digitally projected at the only theatre in Austin with a digital projection system. Evidently, the next closest such setup is in Dallas.

Dude, it was totally awesome.

Here's why:


  1. No projector sound.
  2. No audible reel changes.
  3. No visible reel changes.
  4. No scratches, hairs, or other marks upon the film.
  5. Perfect digital sound.
  6. Amazing, perfect, crisp color and images.
  7. Twice the resolution of HDTV.


In short, one can enjoy a film without the film getting in the way. The message without the medium.
