@jkbaker1117 I think he’s more focused on helping Earth - since it’s still there and it’s his home. Learning his planets language after it’s long been destroyed seems a little low on his to do list. He’s also not super intelligent or anything so just learning a whole ass language isn’t easy.
@EwanCartwright@zandpreme@BattyWanderer Dude I’ve worked in cinemas for over a decade. That statement is so completely, and confidently, wrong. Some movies are sent to theatres in different aspect ratios to better compliment their setup. The Odyssey itself will be available in like 6 different frame sizes.
@EwanCartwright@zandpreme@BattyWanderer “the filmmakers want their film to fill the width of every screen”
That’s completely and utterly false. Dunkirk was shown in thousands of screens with massive black bars. We had to put a sign up in our “SuperScreen” telling customers that’s how Nolan WANTS them to see it.

“Howard told him the bong water was a fancy beer. He got two gulps in before realising what was going on.”
“Biggity biggity boo.” (Or whatever the fuck Sheldon says).
@EwanCartwright@zandpreme@BattyWanderer You are splitting hairs though. Many theatres have large format screens as a gimmick anyway. Devising a way to show the IMAX frame on those set ups shouldn’t be impossible. You’re obsessed with detail on what are already massive screens.
@istartedthebits@BattyWanderer How films are sent to theatres is decided based on numerous factors. No we don’t show any old films really, or at least not regularly, but we do show a lot of drama, music biopics, geriatric type films with old actors IN them. They are only provided to us in Flat (4:3).
@EwanCartwright@BattyWanderer You could if the effort was made to make it possible but there’s a financial motivation for IMAX not to allow it. I’ve been programming cinemas for years, including the IMAX at Glasgow a few years ago. There are plenty of screens large enough to accommodate the frame with detail.
@EwanCartwright@BattyWanderer I never said it was. I’m saying the notion that we cannot view IMAX on a normal screen is ridiculous in 2026. You literally have to pay more to see the full image in a specific location.
@kittykareninas If you’re doing sex right it should be like an RPG. You should be leveling up and learning and improving throughout your relationship. Reading this is like reading that their husbands have 150 hours playing Fallout but have never completed the prologue. Just…what?
@bekoumovies This is by far the clearest indication that you idiots have NOTHING to complain about so you’re reduced to this. I didn’t think it could get more pathetic but here we are.
