I always hear people/actors/directors say, this tape or film is x meters long, it is this size, etc. do they really still use physical film? If so why aren’t they using terabytes of storage in a way more compact form?

    So we have an electron scanner that scan higher resolution than limited resolution film… and we don’t need AI because the resolution is available if we were to scan it…? What…?

    Yeah that’s contradictory and exactly what you said…… sorry.

    You also said earlier something completely different about film not being insanely high quality….

    I can only interpret the words as you’ve stated them, and you’ve argued multiple conflating and contradictory points.

    So what is it? Limited quality? Higher quality than we could ever see? Can’t remaster forever? Can?

          And you don’t need AI to do the thing I was talking about, but you thought I was talking about something else.

          And no, there isn’t, you compared consumer film, vhs, and maybe early digital mpeg video with cinema film. Those formats are nothing alike.
