@marcklingen Because it looks absolutely terrible? There’s too much being crammed into the middle of the screen. Even Nolan would refuse to watch it like that. 2.39:1 with the cropping is exactly how this movie was framed and looks just fine if you aren’t lucky enough to catch it in IMAX.
@Roger_Riera@ItzPaulHD_v1@jeremylovesyall Not perfect, but close. There would still be small black bars on the left and right; still far better than displaying it on a 16:9 screen though.
@embo111@richagatwt@a24victoire It’s not important. IMAX screens are just too big for you to be looking at the whole thing constantly. You’re focusing on the centre of the frame and your peripheral vision is being filled by more image to increase the immersion and scale.
@jari428@richard_normal IMAX ratio is basically a square. It can expand and fill the entirety of the IMAX screen because the screen is also a square. Non-IMAX screens are more rectangular so that third image is what you get.
@richagatwt@a24victoire Yes. The movie was literally framed for 2.39:1. The 1.90:1 or 1.43:1 IMAX screens just show extra image on the top and bottom; it’s there to fill your peripheral vision and increase your immersion. That’s it.
@speaklaur It’s not a big deal. The stuff that is cut off is just there for immersion to fill your peripheral vision on the big IMAX screen. The film was shot for 2.35:1; it’s no different to any other IMAX movie where only certain screens will show the extra image.
@Minene_Uryuuu@cadian_gate@ranger_houston The reason Boston never recovered is because The Institute purposely sabotaged any chance of redevelopment. The skeletons are silly though.
@dnky2th@chocoIady@jnsulz Or it could be that dual-income households are more common nowadays because one source of income is no longer enough to cover rent and bills.
