See http://www.nytimes.com/2006/07/24/technology/24digital.html

...for a story of Hollywood going digital, but at a glacial pace.  
Lot's of film left! A sample:

"But while the changeover to digital filmmaking has long been  
predicted, these companies are encountering an unusual degree of  
resistance from producers, directors and cinematographers. A majority  
of feature films are still shot with film cameras and some well-known  
directors, including Steven Spielberg and M. Night Shyamalan, have  
been vocal about their intention to continue shooting on film."


Cheers,

Bill
