Kodachrome 35mm slides projected to about 48"x32" always looked pretty good in 
the living room
from about 7' away. And you really could tell there was big difference between 
a Leitz colorplan
lens and a generic Kodak projector lens.  Viewed closeup the limit was often 
the film
curvature/lens projector lens focus issue. You could focus critically at any 
point but not all
over the slide. 

And no pixel sampling artifacts to bother with, only nice irregular grain!

For old darkroom hounds just think how large an image you cropped from when 
Black and white
printing.
