Plus you never get scratches, dirt, or bongwater stains on the print. No jitter in the gate (this is why I think the detail in mace windu's coat was better... every pixel lands spot on so the temporal resolution takes a massive jump). And no color shifts from one reel to the other (a pet peeve of mine).
Maybe it was the quality of the projector. Then again, I grew up hating the look of digital. I even prefer the "look" of VHS. Digital things like CDs sound wrong to me, and DVD just lacks *something*. It looks so hard at times. At least when we got forced into it(being a sub anime fan and a widescreen advocate tends to leave one with no choice). That, and I hate how easily they are scratched, but that's something unrelated.

I hope everyone can see ROTS in DLP at least once. check out www.dlp.com and see if you have any DLP houses nearby.
i know my favorite theater in my hometown of San Jose switched to digital just for AOTC. Saddened me greatly. i do hope to see it once, if only because AOTC looked horribly pixalated in film. The blues were just awful. I still doubt digital photgraphy. Fortunately, there are enough out there fighting to preserve film, so its not a repeast of VHS/DVD. Though I'd fear the loss a film still photography more. No problem giving both choices. ^_^
