Last time I went to the movies the projector screen was dirty. Which meant the brighter the image, the more apparent any flaws in the screen were. And also the black levels for projection just sucks compared to a modern OLED. Flaws of a theater are more apparent than what Blu-ray compression would be.
Theres one cinema we go to where some prick clearly threw a milkshake at the screen and apparently the cost to clean it is somehow too much for the cinema to bother with. As you say its noticable in bright scenes. Its like an infuriating dead pixel once you know about it.
