4k remasters are done by scanning film, 35mm has plenty resolution


Watching a 4K digital scan of a master copy on a 4K TV is different from what you would see in movie theaters. The roughly 700-800 lines is the apparent resolution one would experience in a real-life movie theater with analog projection.

The point is that even 1080p TV is an improvement in resolution over what you used to see in cinemas with 35 mm prints.
