Like, I like Lawrence of Arabia. That movie actually has pretty good-quality footage. But…there’s still film grain. And the frame rate is only so high. But there is a whole lot of footage of Lawrence in that movie, enough information to do a pretty good job, if used effectively, of dropping film grain, generating intermediate frames, and increasing the resolution.

This is possible today, and without much effort. Most Stable Diffusion kits just come with upscalers and, as long as you pick the right ones for the job, the models act like fucking magic. Way way better than any of the "nearest neighbor" algorithms image editors provide.

Video editors already have really good tools for interpolating frames for slow motion. They are a bit fiddly in high motion situations, but work well otherwise.
