Posts: 4247 From: Bloomington, IN, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 12-16-2009 04:00 PM                     So it's still 2.39 then.  |  IP: Logged Ian Parfrey Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1049 From: Imbil Australia 26 deg 27' 42.66" S 152 deg 42' 23.40" E Registered: Feb 2009 posted 12-17-2009 01:39 AM                     ..and no 1:75  |  IP: Logged Frank Angel Film God Posts: 5305 From: Brooklyn NY USA Registered: Dec 1999 posted 12-20-2009 08:18 AM                        Manny, technically it's still 2.39:1, but for some reason people have taken to rounding it off and it seems to have caught on. It's incorrect. Seems to me if it is a SPECIFICATION, what's the point of rounding it off? By that logic, 1.37 could be called 1.4 and so on. Makes no sense and among technical people (who else would be using these specs?), it's just sloppy and inaccurate.  |  IP: Logged Joe Tommassello Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 547 From: Coatesville, PA, USA Registered: Jan 2008 posted 12-21-2009 04:41 PM                  Maybe that's a way of saying "We made some wide-ass splices." I remember Star Wars Ep 1 was pronounced 2.4:1 and had to be framed meticulously to avoid splices being visible over the various reels.  |  IP: Logged
