Actually, no it wouldn't - it would be 78% larger. Not only in size, but also in data rate. It would also require significantly better video decoders. Meaning, a new format. Meaning, it doesn't matter now. Meaning, you throw your brand new TV, your AV receiver and your movie player, out the window.
Is anyone really looking forward to this now!? Seriously. There's literally zero chance the current standards will be updated to support higher resolutions, unless it's optional support and discs come loaded with several versions of the same movie. Even then it means buying everything again, if you really must have the latest and greatest.
Reality has a Nintendo bias.
