They are so ignorant that they call Steven Spielberg Steven Soderbergh.
Here is the excerpt that I thought was funny.

IS DIGITAL REALLY BETTER THAN FILM?

For millions of movie goers worldwide and leading directors including George Lucas and Steven Soderbergh, the answer is an unqualified "yes."

When you see a movie digitally, you see that movie the way its creators intended you to see it: with incredible clarity and detail. In a range of up to 35 trillion colors. And whether you're catching that movie on opening night or months after, it will always look its best, because digital movies are immune to the scratches, fading, pops and jitter that film is prone to with repeated screenings.

That's why directors love digital cinema: it ensures that their creation will be reproduced with total fidelity at every screening.

Since 1999, DLP Cinema™ has projected over 50,000 shows to more than 5 million people in field tests worldwide. The results have been overwhelmingly positive: 85 percent of viewers described the image quality they experienced as "excellent," and no fewer than 80 percent of audiences decided that, given the choice, they would prefer to see a movie digitally rather than on film.

Um, how do you know they arn't referring to Steven Soderbergh? You do know that he is a well known director, don't you? Infact he's the director of the big budget "Solaris", that opens later this year. Again, I don't see what's so funny? :confused:

Actually Plo koon 200, they are talking about Steven Soderbergh.
He too is a big advocate of digital cinema like Lucas.

So the article is correct. :)

Exactly Billfremore, I remember him and Lucas both singing the praises of the digital cinema in interviews. I wonder if he shot "Solaris" with a digital camera? I hope so. Can't wait til it opens later this year or next. Looks to be very very good. :)

Spielberg is actually quite anti-digital, from what I've heard.
