Could film make a comeback?

I came across this today. "Gigabit film"

720 lime pairs per mm. WOW!
They say the old 2415 technical pan was good for 100 MP or more in a 35mm frame. Do they call this Gigabit film for a reason? Imagine getting out my tired old canon T70 SLR and shooting 1 gigabit monochrome images with it.
A review of it at bottom of this page

Tough ask though, as theres no "live view" or taking test images for focus with film.

Mind you a 30 minute shot with it with the 300mm f2.8 lens would be interesting.
Note, links to the datasheet dont work, I wonder if its still made?
