Of course they still use film! Nowadays I've noticed that indie productions are using REDs to try and show off a lot... Personally I still like the tried and true film. Or IMAX.... mmm... IMAX

Movie theater projectors are 2048 dpi.

Wait, wait. They don't use film anymore? Where have I been?[img]/emoticons/emotion-3.gif[/img]

Theaters are increasingly switching over to DLP projection. It is a very costly conversion, so many smaller theaters/chains haven't made the switch, but most larger chains have gone all digital.


You can thank James Cameron for killing film projection (the new 3D fad requires digital projectors). That, and the fact that digital is far cheaper to distribute. A single print of a film isridiculouslyexpensive, so to create enough prints to flood the market opening weekend isridiculouslyexpensive X 4,000+ screens. I understand the economics of moving to digital, but....

. Personally I still like the tried and true film.

I would definitely agree. There is just something more natural and beautiful about good old film.
