Well there'd be some hiring for janitors and a lot of slippery floor signs, that's for sure!

Irrelevant. It's hardly the resolution that makes the technology impressive - it's the immersive format and unique aspect-ratio. If you're confusing my note about about the graphics looking like 16-bit color with 1080p res, then please look up the distinction between color depth and resolution; two completely different things. Point being: the screen IS pretty unique technology and it should be possible to intelligently match content to it to produce a show that's actually impressive.

Most of the things I have seen at FSE look downright cartoonish. I have to believe that it is capable of more. One of the best effects I have seen is a USAF Thunderbirds plane streaking the entire length of the dome starting at the Plaza.

IF Fremont Street Experience was interested in spending money to hire top notch animators. (Or at least farm the work out to top notch animators.) Obviously, they're not.

FSE has it's demographic. And scrolling videos of classic rockers is obviously making this demographic happy.
