A 35mm Print of a Feature Film can cost anywhere from $2000-20,000, the workflow to create restored internegatives can cost many times that.

There may not be a financial incentive for a studio to strike a new print if one is damaged or destroyed.

Only a handful of labs left in the world printing and processing motion picture film. Only one lab in the US doing laser subtitles
