Just wait a year or two then the new cinema digital DCP 4xFULL HD projectors will take over the analog 32mm projectors.. The new 4xHD projectors will have a resolution of 4096x2160 pixel or 8.8 Megapixel..! Your eyes will melt because of the insane picture quality and sharpness! =)=)
read more about it here in English :
In Swedish with a picture of the Sony Projector.
The same with me as with some of the others before: The picture in the cinema is not as good as at home. Soundwise it's good, but the whole athmosphere makes the 'real' cinema enjoyable.
But it's sad the way it is, before (home cinema with surround sound) you would go to the cinema for an experience, sound that comes from all directions with bass that shakes you. Now you can even get HD-DVD, Blue-Ray and in the cinema you have a 24 frames a second, appallingly bad in pans, projector picture. They really have to improve in this area!

My B&O Icons:
About soundsystems and picture I wouldn't complain much. I would want though a very different experience, more comfortable seating, more like a lounge. I also would want proper drinks, cocktails, brought to the table. And better snacks. I know that some hotels in NYC have screening rooms, which come very close but they typically don't offer regular and current screenings.
Unless I can find that in a cinema, I prefer home.

We too use the same cinema as hovercrafter and David & agree ! Maybe we should all go in mob-handed, kidnap the manager and take him to B&O Nottingham !

I agree about the motion artifacts, they're a bigger problem when an HD source is used, however I disagree that you can get better definition from film. Film produces a stunning picture, almost in the realms of what a good (although admittedly far more expensive) digital HD camera can produce.
Having seen a digital picture at the local Odeon, the sooner cinemas permanently switch to digital, the better. I saw Charlie and the Chocolate Factory on the digital screen (which they were only running for a month or so) and it produced a far, far better picture than anything else I've seen at the same cinema.
