Gordon McLeod Film God Posts: 9532 From: Toronto Ontario Canada Registered: Jun 99 posted 09-29-2000 08:49 PM                     Actuallly for years I can remeber never seeing the anamorph of a theatre that ran chineese product not in use  |  IP: Logged John Walsh Film God Posts: 2490 From: Connecticut, USA, Earth, Milky Way Registered: Oct 1999 posted 09-29-2000 11:22 PM                     Wow, my head is spinning.... I didn't think any one used 1.33 / 1.37 any more. Thanks, you guys. If you think of any more, let me know. I've been running a lot of non-USA product lately, and I like to figure out some guidelines, however rough..  |  IP: Logged Ari Nordström Master Film Handler Posts: 283 From: Göteborg, Sweden Registered: Jan 2000 posted 09-30-2000 02:44 AM                     1.37 does happen from time to time, even in civilised countries. 1.33 is, AFAIK, dead. A lot of older films (see the 1.37 thread) use that format and many other more or less square aspect ratios, though. I come across variations of it all the time at the revival theatre where I spend my time.  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia.

No Scope, ever, AFAIK.<< Almodóvar has been releasing in scope for at least his last two productions...'Live Flesh' and 'All About My Mother'.  |  IP: Logged Ari Nordström Master Film Handler Posts: 283 From: Göteborg, Sweden Registered: Jan 2000 posted 10-01-2000 03:06 PM                     Of course he had to start shooting in scope after I lost track of him...  |  IP: Logged
