Pretty unnecessary in this digital age

I disagree. Have you ever been to a real 70mm IMAX screening? I don't mean your typical "IMAX". There's only a handful in the whole world.

The quality is gorgeous, and the screens are huge. You also get significantly more of the frame than you will in traditional cinema and on bluray releases.

Don't call it unnecessary until you've actually seen it. Digital IMAX isn't close yet.

Well you could argue making movies is unnecessary altogether. This is art and this is the medium used by the artist.

It's not about image quality of film vs digital, it's about the feel and texture of the experience as a whole.

Just knowing there is an actual film being rolled and having light shun through it while watching it is part of that experience.

Lol I guess I meant shone. Anyways, with light shining through

If you can't tell the difference on the screen it should make no damn odds how the image was stored.
