Watching Revenge of the Sith: Digital or Celluloid?
 
Anyone know if the one in Irvine Spectrum, CA will be in 1080p?

Lara Means 05-17-05 01:12 AM

digital is for wussies.

Terrell 05-17-05 01:21 AM

Digital all the way, assuming there was one close enough for me to go to. But unfortunately, I'll have to watch on dirty, blurry, celluloid.

Iron_Giant 05-17-05 01:22 AM

Both, film on Thursday & digital on Saturday.

MonkeyGoD 05-17-05 02:20 AM

I read somewhere that the first 2 films were only shown in 720p and Episode3 will be in 1080p, is this correct?

B.A. 05-17-05 07:32 AM

I don't have any other choice other than celluloid.

TK-421 05-17-05 07:36 AM

Both.. film Wednesday night and digital on Sunday.

I'm seeing it digitally all the way. I'm lucky in that I live close to a theater that has the first new Kodak DLP projector that's supposed to blow away the current generation DLP's made by Texas Instrument.

Digital!!!!!!!

QuiGonJosh 05-17-05 09:10 AM

I don't care...I just wanna see it..bad!

Spanky BananaPants 05-17-05 10:09 AM

The nearest digital theaters to me are in Denver or Las Vegas, and can't really break away to travel to either. So, I'll be seeing it the old-fashioned way, sadly.

However, three years ago I made the trek to Vegas to see EpII, and it was amazing...

BassDude 05-17-05 10:49 AM

Both.

Film first at the "new" Cine Capri, then digital at Arrowhead the next week.

gonna trek over to the Rio in Gaithersburg to see it in Digital

and then experience it on the Uptown's huge screen in 35mm.

and again in Dolby Digital EX 6.1 sound at Regal Gallery Place or National Amusement's Reston Cinemas (again 35mm).

No need to do that trek since Rio isn't playing it in Digital.

really?! wha, who... how do you know this? WHY NOT!!!!!

oh goddamn it, now I have to go the Merrifield theatre with the sucky seats and sucky soundsystem....

oh this really pisses me off.

UPDATE:

so.... I call over to the Rio and yes, they are NOT showing this in Digital. The guy couldn't give a concrete explaination, but I am just floored. What the **** gives? Three DLP equipped screens in the immediate area, and I assume only one is showing it as such....(maybe the George Lucas retrospect at the AFI Silver can rectify this). I hope DLP does crawl over and die, cause this type of crap, is unexcuseable.

Try Annapollis. I'm gonna trek over there next weekend since this one is probably going to be too crowded. Hopefully it'll still be on the digital screen by then.

Maxflier 05-17-05 03:21 PM

No place around here to see it digital that i know of,doesn't matter much to me anyways.So celluloid for me.

Josh H 05-17-05 03:24 PM

Celluloid, not willing to drive 45+ minutes to a digital screen.

Groucho 05-17-05 03:25 PM

Celluoid. No DLP near me.

Going to the midnight showing at the Muvico Egyption 24 at Arundle Mills.

8 showings, only one sold out as of a couple hours ago when I checked.

I catch most movies there or at the Majestic in Silver Spring, depends on if I'm leaving from home (Laurel, thus closer to Muvico) or work (closer to Silver Spring).

Yep, DLP all the way, baby :saber:

mdc3000 05-17-05 09:26 PM

Both.... TWO hours from now I'm seeing it on film. Tomorrow at midnight I'm seeing it DLP. I am beyond excited.... Digital is easily the prefered format and even if you must drive a few hours, I'm sure it'd be worth it.
