..for it's a good incentive to buy 66",1080i, 16:9 plasma TV sets in the future...since digital home TV, and home theatre systems (either DigTV, or DigProjection) are the way of the future now.
.AND with the increase of home systems will and have caused the public to enjoy movies more since they want to see the film in a different prospective than from seeing it at home so thus, it's a win-win situation for studios and TV manufacturers.....and say "goodbye" to FM analog broadcasting..
I look at it as the attempt to return to the grandeur of the motion picture..or should I dare to say "to bring back the MAGIC in the movies?" I know, we've kicked it, slapped it silly, dragged it around until almost dead, stepped on it, and still be in love it to death in the end: the love of 70mm presentations.
Yet with this incease in widescreen presentations, could a few prints be made for 70mm venues?
Besides, film loves shooting through full open SCOPE apertures - gets more light and definition on the screen.
You shoot through a restricted 1.85/1 FLAT aperture and your light output is a bit dimmer (unless, you refocus the bulb for flat presentations, but then, that can be a hassle to constantly refocus per each lens change..).
Also, cinematographers are finding out how easy it is to use Super35 and tell labs to make Scope movies from this format...
