    Cinemas are projecting film not playing dvds!

    some studios are pushing for a digital format as its cheaper and easier to distribute but im sure it will prob be a few years before that happens

    They have projected in HD for years.
    Basicly HD is just a higher resilution image then normaly seen at home.

    If they didn't use higher resolution images then regular DVD the image would look awful on such a big screen.

    However I think there might be plans to increase the resolution even more for cinema projectors to compete with the home market. Sony have plans for one that can do 4096 x 2160.
