    The reason it’s unnecessary is that digital can completely capture a 70mm in high enough resolution that you perceive no difference at all. 8 or 16K projection is completely feasible in commercial projection systems. It means the cinema only has to deal with a small box instead of an enormous roll of film.

    That doesn’t mean either digital IMAX since that’s old tech using something like 2K projection which isn’t adequate.
