wow, it makes you wonder what the hell they were doing with this incredible so called - supercomputer project for the 2004 DVD. That difference is huge. Although until we go to HD format there is limitations with the resolution. The color, brightness and detail is stark. I wish you could get rips off the digital version for ATOC, Batman Begins from IMAX and the new digital projector version (already 2.35:1) of ROTS that I saw a few weeks ago. Seriously the difference to the regular theater and the digital one I saw in Greenville, SC was at least the difference of above, no joke. Oh and the THX sound blew me away. I saw it twice and thought it was cool, but the third time in the Camelot theater my jaw was wide open for 2.5 hrs.
