Even if I go to the best theater in town (Las Vegas) and see the latest blockbuster the blu will blow it away.I know 35mm film has probably 2x the resolution as 1080 but 1080 on a 40-65" screen> than film on a 30 ft screen. Anyone else agree?

There are *advantages* of 35mm. film theatrical projection compared to Blu-ray but, resolution is not one them.

The two primary *advantages* as I see it, are these………….
