what looks fake.. the things you lay your eyeballs on AFTER watching a movie?
if thats the case, try viewing the same thing outside under the raw sunlight.
if the video itself looked like crap.. it obviously wasnt presented to you with full pixel resolution.
they can 'scale' any image and it will keep its amount of detail.
its like taking a pixel from your screen and blowing it up to the size of a lamp or lightbulb.. like the screens used at football or baseball fields.
they dont have any 'screens' made of lightbulbs anymore.. but you should still be able to find some pictures of 'em.
i have an HDTV and i've seen like five different levels of detail.
