One of my favorite Fil groups on flickr is https://www.flickr.com/groups/onfilm/pool/ (Film isn't dead, it just smells funny). Some are very serious about their preference, some just like experimenting. Reading their discussions can be at times, enlightening.
Just to reinforce on the point of people wanting to continue with what they know and love, we still have people who mostly work on large format film or medium format film. Granted, the perception granted by the lenses for these formats, give you a completely different feeling from that of 35mm and smaller.
One thing film was better at than digital, at least a couple of years ago was dynamic range. You can have the bright sun in your filed of view and the surrounding area are not "blown out" (all highlights)
