Could an analog optical disc format be made today which could equal or exceed the quality of a 35mm film print?

Why do we always have to go from one format to one that has less quality? It's the same way with music. Vinyl-Cassette-CD-downloads. Can't people just leave things alone in transfers?? (That's you Lowry digital!!)

There is just something about a print that is so much more raw and real in feeling. LD feels a bit better than most things just because it is so outdated. Nothing will ever compare to viewing a favorite on a large screen in 35mm. People should just save for an actual home theater setup. I remember reading somewhere online about someone attending a party where a friend showed a 70mm print of SW in their living room. That is what I dream of.
