The Fountain Aspect Ratio ?

[voiz]

Hi,

I just bought The Fountain and watched it on my brand new PS3. It actually is my first ever blu ray movie experience.

I don't know if anybody noticed this but here goes.

1. The Blu-Ray Box of the movie says the aspect ratio is 1.85:1

2. Normally, when i used to watch widescreen regular DVD movies in 1.85:1 on my LCD TV, there were small black bars on top and bottom, which is fine since it means it keeps the aspect ratio and doesnt zoom in or anything.

3. The Fountain movie played on my PS3, although it has a 1.85:1, did NOT have the black bars. The picture was fitting perfectly my 16:9 tv.

Why is that?! I felt like it was auto-cropping my image without me asking for it, and it looked like i missed some of the image too.

Any comment on that, please?


Thanks alot,
Eric

PS: No, my TV settings were not set as Zoom-in or fit screen or anything like that
