Look ma' ! No more film !

New technology allows for movies to be played from a remote location, to the most remote locations, without too much of heavy equipment.

Hopefully soon enough, the next big-screen movie you will see will not be film-based and projected from a reel -based machine, but digital; played from a media center pc or similar.

Intel technicians in Hillsboro, Oregon, encrypted Rize (a feature film), which was shot on high-definition digital video. The file was streamed to Salt Lake City, then beamed via microwave to Park City and through a WiMax connection to the top of a 10,000-foot mountain.
