I tuned in to watch the experience live (you can see a clip right here), and while the quality was certainly good enough, the hassle of clicking through Fortnite's menus was a bit more work than just waiting another five minutes to see it in full-screen on YouTube. Still, we'd expect to see more events like this in the future, and Nolan apparently plans to screen one of his flicks in the game later this summer.

Samsung lets you ignore nature with its 2,000-nit outdoor QLED TV
4K meets the backyard.
This Terrace TV comes in 55-, 65- and 75-inch models and is starting to go on sale in the US and Canada.

The Blade Pro 17 is now equipped with either a 300Hz 1080p IPS display ideal for gaming or a 4K 120Hz TFT touchscreen aimed at content creators.
