So it is real, as good as if it were shot HD? It is not just some
kind of rendering?

Movies shot on film are simply rescanned frame by frame at a higher
resolution, just about anything shot digitally is shot at a minimum
of 1920x1080 (Phantom Menace was shot at that res as I recall)
And of course, anything CG can be arbitrarily rerendered at whatever
resolution is desired.
That was the plan for Babylon 5, except someone lost the
mesh/texture/scene files to rerender it in lightwave :/

the Lord of the Rings, before HD and blue-ray were in use and then
turn it into a blu-ray movie. Don't you need special HD cameras to
make a HD movie?
