I believe you're thinking of encoding HD resolution using MPEG2 on DVD? Yes, the bit rate for that is prohibitive (can't fit a whole move), and it will probably need to spin at 8x or faster.
That's the beauty of MPEG4/DivX/VC1,etc - they are much more efficient than MPEG2 (standard DVD encoding) - you can actually fit HD quality movies on a regular DVD (as mentioned earlier).
