Best THX moments in the cinema

It’s been years since I worked in the cinema of 1998. I have only read the reports on it and heard a few visual effects artists commenting on its performance Richard Edlund described it fairly well which made my nod one or two times during the Die Hard commentary session.

So if I where to see it in the cinema I’d be looking for (black levels) “pixels” where Edlund pointed out, you can see it all moving around its close its good but its got a long way too go, its like trading one artefact for the other being you see soft grain and golf balls on 35mm.

I would say it would be very unlikely I’ll ever see DLP in the cinema Dolby digital cinema is still a long way off before its widely used in all the cinemas only the large metropolitan areas have DLP in the UK.

Since1999 not looking good at all. Maybe you should ask David Lean this question.

Film is original television isn’t.

Not even the Warner Village 12 screen had DLP and not like it would and that was a brand new site during the late of 1998.

The DLP technology is probably more widely used in the consumer home cinema, except even all that’s about to change with LED projection in the home coming soon?

I would ask him, but he's been dead nearly 16 years now.

The only good thing about it is no scratches on the print and what’s this with running it with 1KW light most 70mm house run 2 to 3KW.
