Based on a study from IHS Screen Digest Cinema Intelligence Service 2012 will "mark the crossover point when technology overtakes 35mm." This really is not so good news for film purists like Quentin Tarantino and Steve Spielberg. It's really great news for Smurf-documentarian James Cameron. According the IHS mind of film and cinema research David Hancock, Avatar was the tipping point pushing cinemas toward digital projection.
Based on Hancock, before Avatar digital projection paid for for 15-percent of worldwide screens. Following the film was launched, digital projection increased 17-percent both in 2010 and 2011. Listed here are more harrowing products in the report for enthusiasts of celluloid:
Through the finish of 2012, the proportion of 35mm will decline to 37 percent of worldwide cinema screens, with digital comprising the rest of the 63 percent. This signifies a dramatic decline for 35mm, that was utilized in 68 percent of worldwide cinema screens this year. In 2015, 35mm is going to be utilized in just 17 % of worldwide movie screens, relegating it to some niche projection format.
It had been certain to happen eventually. As I wait, I am likely to watch a couple of Goddard movies in the local independent theatre. [MSNBC]
