In reference to the 4K lines of resoluion, the 35 mm pro type full frame sensors are 16 Mpixles. I guess it's pretty close to the film grain.
The next thing they need is to increase the frame rate. Hopefully technology can speed up to get the costs down. 24 fps is just enough to fool the brain but they "the studios" have known since the 60s that a higher frame rate gives the brain a better perception of depth. The film editors would hand crank the film forward and back and when they hit somewhere around 60 fps or more the sequences would become much more real. Fool the brain better. The example they used was the star field scenes where there was a slow pan and not much going on. I remember reading an article about some super cimemas that had frame rates of 60 and larger screens to give the moviegoers a greater sense of emersion. It was in that article that talked about where they found out about it. It was a sunday insert "parade"? I think.
