As far as I know (via many people on /a/) anime TV series are in 720, so don't bother with 1080 torrents since that's upscaled. What about films?
In particular I'm looking at "The Garden of Words" movie and it's in 1920 (nah), 1080, and 720. Are the first two upscales, and not worth it?

Cinemas are >4k, so anything intended to be shown in one is mastered at cinema resolution where possible.

Anon I have a site you might like.
It lists all shows in a season/some movies and what resolution they are airing at.

Slight warning. The site is in moon, but it is easy to see what resolution something is (and google translate can give a gist of names) and search for something by going to MAL and copying the Jap name (in this case 言の葉の庭 ) in to the search.
Thank you for your responses! They're very helpful.
