Notice that Robert Rodriguez hasn't referred to his movies as "films" since he started shooting digital. I believe they've been referred to as a "flick", "digital file", "game" and "comic book" during the opening credits. I might be slightly wrong on the exact wording there, but my point still stands.

I know. My point is that the term "film" has now been applied by Lucas to things shot on digital. I think the term now means the general motion picture. It's similar to how some people still say "taped" when recording a TV program with a DVD recorder.
