that's because film research has essentially stopped while digital camera research is happening even without people asking for it. we don't have to ask for it, they're giving it to us anyway.
I recall a trade circulation I read a while back indicating that Kodak has essentially stopped doing any sort of film R&D.
They may be making minor tweaks here and there, but I anticipate than any new films from Kodak will be rebadged models from last year, so to speak.
I can't speak for what Fuji is doing, but it would surprise me very much if they were doing much film R&D, considering what their marketing philosophy has been in the past.
