Thanks for the cool video! For that first shot, I calculated you would have to sit 51.2ft (15.6m) away to achieve a 1:1 roundness ratio. I think I see what you're saying although I wish I could test it better.

For anyone who's interested, I have attached a spreadsheet with the calculated, approximate optimum viewing distances for each shot in that video. Everything that needed 10ft and under looked pretty good. Above that, I couldn't test as well without moving my TV. The dimensions of my apartment are pretty limiting.

I don't believe Jack, Oz, or Gatsby had many shots that flat and unresponsive to changes in viewing distance like the first couple of shots in the YouTube video. That is more Amazing Spider-Man/Harold and Kumar type of roundness. I'm also thinking that Sammy and Sharkboy/Spy Kids 3 would look too overblown from the back of a cinema. They already look 1:1 or greater from 6ft away.
