And like Cynth said, DLP is really a fantastic option (and it's spreading like wildfire). I know of at least a half a dozen theaters in my area that offer it. Star Wars 3 was really breathtaking.

problem is that you're trying to use consumer grade popcorn packages.
I guarantee that if you use this, you'll find it tastes just like movie popcorn.
you could of course use the same oil and use regular consumer bags of popcorn and you'll be golden.

but whatever you do don't look at the nutritional value of movie popcorn... ever.

I find that DLP screens, it's like watching DVD on a giant screen, no noise, dirt, hair, pops, lines, scratches...
there was one time when we saw Phantom Menace in DLP and it was not voice synced for the first few tries. They had to keep rebooting the system. The projectionist felt bad about the whole deal and saw that many of us were techies so he invited us up to the projection booth. I got to see hold the DLP chip in my hand, the digital projection system, see Sony SRS, Dolby Digital systems and of course the huge reel projectors. It was rather cool.
