I believe there is an error in the THX and SMPTE viewing distance recommendations at the end of this article. I believe that the distances given were calculated using the screen diagonal as opposed to the width. For example, the instructions say to multiply the screen width by 1.37 but 50" was actually multiplied by 1.37 as opposed to 43.5" (the screen width of a 50" 16:9 display). Thus, the THX recommended viewing distance would be about 5' and 6'9" for SMPTE.
