I'm sure someone would have caught this by now (2016) but isn't this native 4K that qualifies?

Maybe the info is wrong on 4k native.

According to this website review "Assassin’s Creed was filmed digitally using Arri Alexa 65 cameras, with a resolutions of 3.4K and 6.5K but finished using a 4K Digital Intermediate (DI), meaning we’re seeing the full native resolution on this Ultra HD Blu-ray disc, presented in a widescreen 2.39:1 aspect ratio. The disc uses 10-bit video depth, a Wider Colour Gamut (WCG) and High Dynamic Range (HDR), and is encoded using the HEVC (H.265) codec."

Brandon Cronenberg's POSSESSOR was actually mostly shot in 2K, as per this interview with Brandon and his DP Karim Hussain, with some 3.2K material, as well:

The relevant section:

"We shot principally at 2K ProRes 4444 and some 3.2K ProRes 4444 here and there, if the lenses allowed, and the wider gate made sense for more field of view. Early in the process at Technicolor with Jim Fleming, our colorist, we shot tests of all the various formats that the Alexa Mini and ARRI Amira provided, including ARRI Raw, and blew the images up to 4K and looked at them on a big screen. Our workflow on Possessor was that we would deliver a 4K finished product, but we wanted to see what would be the best formula to get an image feeling closest to older 35mm film.

"Our workflow on Possessor was that we would deliver a 4K finished product, but we wanted to see what would be the best formula to get an image feeling closest to older 35mm film."

After studying the results, we felt that 2K ProRes 4444, not XQ, felt softer and took off the digital edge. Shooting principally at 1280 ISO felt the best for the look we wanted. Some 3.2K, as long as it wasn’t ProRes XQ, was acceptable within the world. We weren’t forced to originate at 4K, only deliver at that resolution, something you can do less and less of these days, so thankfully we could stick to our original plan."

Also, I believe Kino has confirmed that EASTERN PROMISES will in fact be an uprez of the existing 2K DI, although they initially did say it would be "true 4K".

The upcoming Synapse releases of DEMONS and DEMONS 2 need to be added to the list.

Possessor (2020) still has a 4K DI. Then you can rule out Skyfall (2012) as well. 2.8K shot for example.
But these movies are still eligible for the list.

Yes, unfortunately Eastern Promises (2007) can be removed.

if 95% of something was shot at 2k or under though it sort of defeats the purpose of talking about 4k DI sourced discs, at least something all 2.8k shot will show more than 2k DI max detail

Halloween (1978) is already on the list, but a new release by Shout.
