I sat down this week-end and watched Batman Begins and was struck,
immediately, at how much clearer it looks on DVD at home than it did in
the theater. I don't have a AAA home theater set-up, but I have a nice
51" rear projection 16:9 set and Dolby Digital/DTS 6.1 surround.

I remember thinking when I saw it in the theater that it was a little
blurry, a little grainy, kind of hard to follow the action. I said to
myself back then "I wonder what it's going to look like on DVD?"

Turns out it kicks ass on DVD. Has anyone else had this experence? I
first noticed it back when the Brendan Frasier version of the Mummy
came out. I used to blame it on the projectionist (or lack of a trained
one), but now I'm not so sure.
