Considering that The Force Awakens was filmed on 35mm, will they use 35mm sources instead of digital scans for future releases, both OOT and SE?

 But... wouldn't they have to make a digital scan of that to release it?

The TPM DVD didn't use a digital scan.

I think you're a little confused...

Just about all movies made today are finished as digital intermediates (regardless of how they were shot), just as all modern restorations of old movies are done digitally.

Christopher Nolan and Paul Thomas Anderson are the now ultra-rare holdouts who insist on finishing their films photochemically. Even Tarantino now uses the DI process to my knowledge, making his comment about digital projectors being like "watching tv in a movie theater" a little disingenuous.
