Brad said: "Actually the numbers I heard are different. I heard 115,000 film prints worldwide and 95-ish DLP screens. Note how the "over 94 digitally projected..." is the worldwide number, yet "6000 prints" is the US/Canada number? Kinda sneaky. Assuming the numbers I got were valid, that ratio is much higher."115,000 film prints?  Maybe 11,500? If so, 94/11500 = 0.82 percent. ------------------
