"Lastly, many directors use a 1:85 safe action area in the 2:35 format so to allow better translation of the image when it is rescaled for television in the 16:9 format or panned and scanned for 4:3 television format"I am aware of this. My complaint was that if the original happened to be 1.85:1, then why modify it when producing the DVD?
"Secondly, a motion picture is not shot to fit television as its major market. Films are shot to be projected in a motion picture theater."
I'm also aware of this. My point was that if the original was shot at 1.85:1, why modify it to be 2.35:1 for the DVD release, regardless of whether or not the "official" stated original aspect was supposed to be 2.35:1. You yourself said it was shot at 1.85:1, so what would occur in order to make this image 2.35:1? Wouldn't the top and bottom need to be cropped when mastering the DVD? (my point, complaint, and reason for this entire thread)
