Well there is a simple reason for that.. There is almost no 4K content.. No tv show is shot in 4K.. The max old movies can do with converting film is 3.6K but you would have to find a very good percerved copy of the film.. Most would get to 3K.. New films arent shot 4K except some Red one and IMAX films.. But i do have to say.. i have seen 4K shot footage on 4K screens and its beautiful.. The amount of details is amazing and makes it more lifelike.. That said it will take some time before enough 4K content is created to justify a 4K TV

Actually a lot of today's movies are recorded with digital 4K cameras in these past several years, because it's cheap and high quality.

IMAX rarely uses 4K cameras, and that's only for certain 3D IMAX films during certain scenes where they need a lighter weight camera then the 250 pounds 3D IMAX Cameras, and also in different sitituations when they need a small enough 3D cameras for certain spots where they clearly can't capture wi the ridiculous size of stereoscopic IMAX Cameras.

The Great Gatsby was most likely shot with digital Stereo 4K cameras.
