Movie theaters could screw up your 2D movies by leaving the digital projector install for 3D

We generally choose to do our movie viewing in our own residence theaters, but if we succumb to the temptation of public moviehouses we frequently choose digital projection hoping for a flawless viewing experience. Unfortunately, this report by The Boston Globe indicates that won’t be the case. It’s alleged by unnamed theater employees that theaters are leaving the 3D lens adapters on their Sony 4K digital projectors even if showing 2D. Identical to viewing 3D, this cuts the sunshine output and it’s worse for 2D films not made with that during mind, but theaters do it because removing the lenses is overly complex and lots moviegoers don’t appear to notice or complain. The Globe suggests checking the digital projector yourself — in case you see two beams of sunshine from on high at a 2D flick then something is rotten in Denmark. Check the thing on the source link for a rundown of the various chains using a majority of these projectors and why that is the case (money), but after this and Liemax premium VOD is beginning to sound better and higher.
