"4K Pure Cinema,"
the world's first field test to use the Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI)
Digital Cinema System Specifications at the highest quality standard of 4K
to test the service model of digital cinema distribution and exhibition of
feature-length motion pictures has announced another expansion. Paramount
Pictures, a major Hollywood studio, assisted by its local distribution
affiliate United International Pictures (Far East), will join current field
trial participants Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc., Warner Entertainment
Japan Inc., Sony Pictures Entertainment Inc., Sony Pictures Entertainment
Japan Inc., Toho Co., Ltd., Warner Mycal Corporation, Nippon Telegraph and
Telephone Corporation, Nippon Telegraph and Telephone East Corporation and
Nippon Telegraph and Telephone West Corporation.
Since July 8, 2006, when "Mission Impossible III (M:i:III)" by
Paramount Pictures opens in Japan, with a digital release at "4K Pure
Cinema" quality in Warner Mycal Cinemas and TOHO CINEMAS in the Tokyo and
Osaka regions . M:i:III, which originated in the 2K format, will be
up-converted to 4K resolution in real time as part of the DCI-compliant
digital cinema playback process.
IMO since 2006-2015 a whole lot of films may already be in 4k
