So you're saying that LotR was

basically shot in 35mm and scanned in 4K. But all the effects and compositing were done in 2K, and the end result was 2K? Or were the effects done in 4K (to future proof them i guess), but the master was done at 2K because that was the standard at the time? Because if all they had to do was go back and re-assemble all the 4K elements to make a 4K master, that's not such a big deal. But if the effects (all the digital doubles and models and matte paintings) were done at 2K, then all that would have to be re-done from scratch, which would be a massive (so to speak) undertaking, and hugely expensive.
EDIT: I hope all that made sense!
