I cross-referenced a number of sources, most of which stated that the aspect ratio is 1.85. A few claimed it was 1.33 but that's clearly wrong. I couldn't find any to support the notion that this should be projected as 1.66.  |  IP: Logged Jack Theakston Master Film Handler Posts: 411 From: New York, USA Registered: Sep 2007 posted 02-01-2012 07:22 PM                     It's 1.85. Check out Harold Michaelson's storyboards all laid out for that ratio and signed off by Hitch.  |  IP: Logged
