The previous answer was incorrect. Traditional IMAX projects 70mm film which in turn is roughly 16 times the quality of 1080p or possibly more and it is uncompressed unlike a digital image because it is not a file but an actual image. Regular movie theater quality alone when projected in 35mm is roughly 6 times the quality of 1080p. As for the newer IMAX screens such as AMC IMAXs that use 2k technology for digital 3d, 2k resolution is almost twice the quality of 1080p. Also some digital movie theaters (not imax) support 4k technology roughly 4096X2304 pixels compared to 1920X1080. Also when regular 35mm film is scanned into the computer it comes in at 6k resolution, 70mm scans can be up to 36k or roughly 36,0000 pixles. Compared to your 1080 pixels, you do the math. However to this day with the new digital age, I refuse to watch digital presentations of films because the images are compressed and do not project the true color space of film and lack the 3d look and feel that film brings to the big screen.

Can a 720p TV be used as a 1080p?
All HD televisions are capable of displaying both 1080i and 720p formats. They are both considered to be minimum standards for HD capability. 1080p is a higher data rate than the others and a few older HD models cannot handle the format. Any of the later HD televisions will also accept 1080p. In all cases, the television will convert the incoming signal to a size to suit the native resolution of the television.
Which is the cheapest full HD projector?
The cheapest full HD (1080p) projector today is the Vivitek H1080FD. It is available online for as little as $800.00. Be careful when comparing projectors. You need to check the native resolution of the display (which must be at least 1080p), not the ability to handle 1080p signals. All the cheaper projectors with '1080p compatibility' downsample the resolution to as little as 480i to display, which is not HD.
