Just to clarify, I too regret the near-loss of film as a projection medium (I’m actually thinking about driving 6 hours to another country to be able to see The Hateful 8 in 70mm) but if I can’t see the movie on actual film, good digital projection is the next best thing - I actually keep a log on projection quality for all projection rooms I visit and I can tell you that the quality of digital projection can vary greatly, so if you only have a couple of experiences with DCP and they were so bad, you may just have stumbled into bad ones - the projection of TFA 2D I saw looked amazing and it was very film-like.

He’s got point. Much as I’d love to live those glorious film days, I’d settle for DCP if I had to. But… I would dearly pay to see a 70mm film print…
