>>220316668Can anyone explain to me why we can't have 16:9 movies?
>>220316915What do you mean?
>>220316991that's not a movie
>>220316915From just using my own logic, lenses are circular so ideally a picture is a square with getting too much distortion on the ends, theaters are rectangular, you create your media based on where going to play. So you make your film rectangular requiring cropping, full screen, 4:5 and all those fun aspect ratiosThese are good ratio for big rooms and more seats to sell. But when viewing at your computer a screen thats mean for a closer viewing distance that ratio doesn't make sense. You dont sell for computer screens. My guess anyways, I didn't go to school.

>>220319276She's wearing the socks so Tarantino could make tea with them later.
>>220316668Movie and TV were separate before streaming
>>220319276It's clear Quentin didn't like her, she's barely in the movie she literally gets fucking raped by some redneck off screen
>>220319804There were literally widescreen and fullscreen DVDs
>>220317254Yoo.. my licka Frogger got splatted?
>>220319987Quentin has terrible taste on women

>>220316668>>220317315Cant you see Bridgette Fonda's full ass in Jackie Brown full screen on the VHS?
>>220317315Why was this creep ever allowed to make mainstream movies
>>220321459If you want to see her ass you can just google it.
Why not just allow us to choose the aspect ratio? Games do this; you'd think it would be easier for movies.

>>220316915>>220317157people generally don't like square format for whatever reason, I guess because human vision is more wide than tall due to having 2 eyes. You can see this with the way Hasselblads fell out of favor. Like even famous Apollo photos are usually cropped and not actually presented as perfect squares. by the 80s and 90s 645 format cameras were raping the shit out of hassleblad and even today hassleblad now produces 4:3 aspect ratio cameras instead of the old 6x6. films generally have the weird super wide format because it used to distinguish them from TV shows. The Imax snider justice league was 4:3 because that is the closest you can get to maximizing the lens image circle outside of square format. You can go look up shit like xpan photos. the xpan is a really piece of shit camera that has all the electronic stuff hipsters seethe about in a camera and has the hipstertax on top of it, but people love it because it makes wide screen panoramic "cinematic" images, even though they are annoying to share because most image apps like IG are 4:5 now to maximize phone viewing. the decades of >films are widemade it so films have to be wide because 4:3 looks like fucking I love Lucy and not a film
>>220317800I wonder if that's a blue ray thing with the left
>>220321583it used to be a storage space issue on stuff like VHS and maybe DVD.

>>220317315why don't they just make a single one that fills the entire thing including all the black areas, are they stupid?
