"It’s rare to see 35mm prints of anything these days (let alone 70mm). If the options are there, you likely won’t regret seeing Oppenheimer on actual film, whether it be 70mm or 35mm."

Ok the new Foundation trailer is cool and all, but why are people still uploading letterboxed videos to YouTube? Just upload it in its native format! Then when I full-screen your 2.35:1 movie trailer on my 2.35:1 monitor, it will actually fill the screen, instead of being letterboxed and then ALSO pillarboxed. :P #AspectRatios #OldManYellsAtCloud

Photo of a 2.35:1 format video letterboxed (black bars top and bottom) into a 16:9 video frame, then “full screen” on YouTube which further insets the video by pillarboxing (adding black bars left and right), so there is a thick black border surrounding the video on all sides, and it’s not full screen at all.Photo of a 2.35:1 format video filling my equally wide screen

Go for it. I found it interesting (but frustrating) dealing with the different disciplines of cropping shots for Instagram, Twitter, Wordpress and other sites. It's an interesting exercise to try and create an aesthetically pleasing image from a portion of the shot you actually wanted. Sometimes it will show you a frame you didn't think would work, but the physical constraints of frames and pages and so on don't really exist online, and I'm a big fan of making the image shape be whatever works for the image. Let's face it, the field of view of the human eye is *way* larger than most shots, and (perceptually) without vignetting, barrel distortion etc, not to mention huge dynamic range, so any lens->film/sensor->digitization->reproduction pathway is going to seriously compromise/enhance what we *saw*. At the same time we unconsciously crop out all the clutter and noise and extraneous detail that suddenly is unpleasantly there in a captured image.

Do it.

A suburban skyline of utility poles, roofs, and trees along a ridgeline, all in silhouette, backlit by an intense deep orange dawn light.Quadruple conjunction of Mars, Saturn, Venus and Jupiter as a vertical panorama, with a lit suburban vista beneath.A very wide panorama and cloudscape of very dark, wispy clouds backlit by a sky that's light orange below grading to deep blue above. Underneath the cloudscape is a dark suburban skyline of trees and roofs, black silhouettes against the dawning sky.
