Sat in the front. 5.1 mixes really need to be optimized for the theater and not the home. I was in the front row, and "All Together Now" sounded just atrocious. The background singers were to the right, and then the Beatles came in on the center - it was an awkward cut. I could still here the background singers (I think just a different track of the Beatles) when they switched it to center. The real nail in the coffin was that I couldn't hear Nowhere Man's lyrics! Literally, they were in an echo, and the instrumental was coming out right center. Needless to say I'll be sticking to the 2.0 and mono tracks on the DVD!
I also think that it was a bit out of focus for a digital projection. There was... ghosting, I think. Unless that's normal in animation and I don't normally notice it. And the shadows often looked like blurs on screen.
Do I regret going? No. I just wish the presentation was more ... pleasing.
