4k projectors too dim?

Dark Side of the Camera
Looks like the same problem as here in Germany. The last 3 movies I saw, where definitely dim.

Many theaters misuse 3-D lenses to show 2-D films, squandering brightness, color

As if rising ticket prices and chatterbox patrons weren’t enough, moviegoers in the Boston area are being left in the dark thanks to the regular misuse of the lenses on new digital projection equipment at many of the region’s major theater chains. But almost no one at the theaters or their corporate headquarters is willing to talk about it.

If you think that is bad, I've gone home for holiday (ohio) and had to knock several times on the projectionist's door to tell him it wasn't in focus. Projectionists used to be technical experts... now they are high-school students who don't give a crap.

Sad.


I'm glad to live in LA, where all high-end theaters HAVE to give the best image possible... because you never know when the director or DP are in the audience.
 
In Pirates , it took them 20 minutes to get the projector password right.

Brave new world...
