Also, I kind of wonder if there's a certain irony to watching this movie on video, and if it has an adverse effect on how you perceive it.

If I had seen this at the Castro theater in San Francisco or the Paramount in Oakland or the Crest theater in Sacramento, it still would not change my mind. In my view, it is what it is regardless of the venue it is playing.

It really is a movie for those who love movie theaters as much as we love movies.

I also love movie theaters, however, this one did not have an affect on me.

the disparaging comment about it not winning any Writer's Guild awards (as if Tsai Ming-Liang particularly cares about a conventional narrative) makes it look like another case of judging it mased on what you want it to be, rather than what it is.

No, it is not a disparaging comment at all. Just the truth. I'll add to that no Actors Guild wins either.
