I saw Star Wars Episode 1 projected using film and digital (at the AMC
Burbank). Overall, the image quality of the digital display was not that
great. Quite often, one could see pixelization and the tonal transitions
weren't as smooth as film. I would imagine there will have been some
improvement since then and look forward to making the comparison again with
Episode II .
