>>3824117>i'm sure it would be a great seller, even with its unique developing processEhhhh. Probably not.
Kodak barely has the funds at this point in its history to make easily-processed and very profitable C41 and E6 films. To restart Kodachrome, they'd also have to restart the infrastructure for processing Kodachrome, which means either operating their own mail-in lab or begging Dwayne's to buy a new Kodachrome processing machine from them with no guarantee that it would be particularly profitable.
And most likely, the demand would evaporate pretty quickly. Most of the appeal of old Kodachrome slides isn't really the Kodachrome look--it's the 1950s/1960s look, or it's the skill of Steve McCurry as a travel/documentary photographer. It's like when you buy your ugly girlfriend some lingerie and she's still ugly in it because what you *really* wanted was to fuck the model in the catalog.
So a few Kodachrome diehards would love it, but most people would shoot a roll or two at like $2-5 per frame, then decide it's too expensive and not *that* amazing after all, and Dwayne would never make back the money they spent on buying a new Kodachrome machine.
What might happen is that Kodak Alaris might develop a new E6 film that looks pretty close to what Kodachrome used to and market it as Kodachrome II or something. People on here will say it's nothing at all like the old Kodachrome, but people here will say whatever stupid thing they can think of regardless.
