  • Upcoming STAR WARS Episode VIII is being shot on Film

    Ironic that George Lucas changed to Digital back in 2002 but the last two Star Wars are shot on Film.

    Preservation of Digital is a REAL problem.

    Especially when the storage media becomes obsolete in about 40 years
    time and there is no way to get it out .. I think that the BBC had
    this problem some years ago trying to retrieve some radio or TV
    programs recorded the middle of last century..
