I know this is something slightly off topic, but pretty relevant. I personally have been wondering why they haven't done this a lot sooner. Anyone have about $8K?

Wouldn't you then be complaining about every movie in this thread, plus the ones that are in 1.33:1? And for 8 thousand dollars you can have a pretty good projector setup, I think. And that one can be at least twice as big as that tv.

Hmmm I hadn't thought of it that way. So everything above 1.85:1 will fit well with that tv, but the 1.66-1.85:1 will have black bars on the side instead of the usual bars on the top and bottom?

Well, considering that most movies are above 1.85:1...it still might be okay...

I'm excited to hear this. I'm personally not a fan of widescreen formats, so I'm glad WB is putting Sherlock Holmes in this format.

[Rinzler]

Halo Legends is 1:78:1, and is awesome. Sorry I haven't contributed in a while, been a bit out of the loop, and it's about to get worse. Toy Story/Toy Story 1 and 2 are going to be 1:85:1, and TPATF is 1:78:1 if that hasn't been added yet.....

1.78:1 is a widescreen format.

Given the movie was shot with an intended aspect ratio of 1.85:1, the removal of the minute matte bars neither helps nor hurts the shot composition. I just mentioned the fact that it's really 1.78:1 because reporting it as otherwise is an all too common goof that irks my OCD.

[TTC1984]

Yeah, its not necessary to have 2.4:1 TVs. then we're just gonna get people complaning about how their "taller" ratio movies don't fill the screen.

No matter what size the TV, people will always find SOME way to complain.

Thgere not putting it in this format, that's how it was shot.


We can add Avatar and The Invention of Lying to the list if no one has mentioned it yet.

Have you seen a 2.4:1 tv in person, they are absolutly spectacular to watch and you'd wonder why someone would go wth a 16:9 tv if they mainly watch movies after sieng one.
