But if you want to see in detail how Legolas whips the ass of an orc somewhere 500ft in the background of a battlescene, you prasise the lord of hi-res for provding you the means to do it.

(Not to mention the minimum size the screen would be to notice the difference in quality from normal HDTV, as already mentioned)
Imo for motionsickness one would need a simulator. Heh, I want one.

Concering 33Mpixel resolution.. what is missing at the moment, is the quality of raws to meet that standard. Imo, today there is no film offering that resoulition. When I watch a movie in a cinema, I always try to identify the details, but even if the film is rather new, many things just blur out. So either they change the quality of the raws for the new technologies or there is no need for 33Mpixel showing a blurred scenery.
