Last week I've seen Sin City in a cinema using digital projection.
Actually I was stunned by the qualitiy. I didn't expect it to be that good—really superior to an analog projection. Sin City may not be the perfect film because of its style, but the digital trailer was just amazing. The ads were projected using analog so you could compare it almost directly (ok, the ads rolls are always pretty old and low quality). When the digital projection started showing a panorama of some high mountains (maybe alps), I was overwhelmed (BTW the screen size was about 150 m²).
Today I talked with a friend about it and he told me, that current projectors have an resolution of about 2 MP!
I wase stunned again: just that low? I looked a bit around in the net. Unfortunately they don't tell it on the homepage of the cinema in question, but all the other documents I found imply, that the current resolution is about 2 MP (2 K vertical lines). So what can we expect, if the proposed higher resolutions come to the cinema? First 4K and then even 8K…
Now I just want to watch a movie with some real scenery there…
