I completely agree, I said 1080p is fine, that is not to say it can't be better :-) A movie scanned and handled at 4K and then downscaled to 1080p will probably look a bit better than scanned directly at 1080p. But when scanned at 1080p with a hi-def release in mind, it can be really good - like old versions of Blade-Runner: I watched the original version of BR, which was scanned from a good IP at 1080p on my grandpa's 50" and checked it against the Final Cut, which was scaned from o-neg at 4K and the difference was very minor. I actually liked the slightly grainier look of the original a bit better than the Final Cut (although that may be because I generally prefer the original version).
