My local indie theater recently ran a substantial (for them) fundraising campaign to upgrade to digital. They claimed that within a year or two, the major studios were going digital only and any theater without digital would be completely shut out. I didn't verify this, but I have no reason to doubt them.

- Keyframe 14y agoDCP is de facto standard for a few years now. It is pretty rare to see 35mm copies around except on festivals. It is even rare to see film cameras on set, even on commercials which are usually ripe with, what would one call, 'hipsters'.

"I like both, but it doesn't matter what I think, as the last 35mm film camera rolled off the assembly line months back and most studios are ceasing print distribution altogether: first overseas, then domestically." http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/tcxgh/i_am_thekevin_smith_i_came_from_cum_and_made/c4lk8cn http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/tcxgh/i_am_thekevin_sm...
