is it possible to burn an HD movie to a VHS?

no stupid

Why not?
Even in theaters they use film for HD movies

HD VHS tapes existed but they never really caught on. I guess you'd need to find some old stock. There's no reason to do it other than to be a mega hipster though.

tape isn't film

Oldheads don't want you to know that you can use a vhs to record the screen while playing a high def film and it just works

You've heard of upscaling. This would be downscaling.

I suppose if you placed film reels into a giant novelty VHS tape the size of a car or something and had a vhs that big it could work.

Certain late 90s NES games are so elegant at subtle color shading and early SNES games are so dogshit at it that it really blurs the line and makes you wonder how SNESy you could make a NES game look.
I mean color limits are a thing but if you wanted a NES game to look like a single frame of a SNES game could you do it?

Are there certain colors you straight up don't have access to? Or Just the quantity of colors?

I was just curious.
My question arose from the fact that old CRT televisions offered more beautiful colors, and perhaps film offered the same, if not superior, visual quality.

Not a standard VHS. But there was a format called D-VHS that existed for a few years before Bluray/HDDVD came out. It was HD resolution on specialized VHS tapes. You also needed a special VCR. They were pricey as fuck. At the time you could get a good VCR for a hundred bucks. D-VHS VCRs were like three grand a pop. You can still find them and tapes, but they're really just collectors items now

No it was technically better. Standard DVD was 480 resolution max. D-VHS could go to 1080. But again it was expensive. I don't think the average person even knew it existed

A VHS tape is not the same as a roll of film.
