I'm just saying that, if you were to zoom the image to the edge of the screen, it looks like the intended aspect ratio was 2.20:1 rather 2.35:1. As to why it was windowboxed is anyone's guess. Maybe it was a misguided attempt to defeat overscan. A lot of Japanese BD's do that.

Nope, 1.66:1 releases touch the top and bottom of the screen.

You may be right about the aspect ratio being 2.20:1. I was addressing those who were thinking the windowboxing might be normal for the OAR used or something.
