Author Topic: Brother Bear first 25mins cropped to 1.85 ?? Bill Langfield Master Film Handler Posts: 280 From: Prospect, NSW, Australia Registered: Apr 2001 posted 12-23-2003 10:18 AM                        Anyone know why Brother Bear is cropped to 1.85 for about the first 25mins, I have'nt actually watched it. Is it for effect, or did they screw something up that was too expensive to fix?? (Im guessing 25mins because I noticed it's reel one and about a quarter of reel two when making it up) It came with a very nicely printed 'comic' for, I guess, the dummies that the whole print is to be screened in 2.35:1 ! Was cute. Bill.  |  IP: Logged Mark J.

The topic you sent me to is titled 'Brother Bear-various aspect ratios (page1)' I can only guess the hypen/dash screwed it up ?? I feel dumb now, but I think the search engine is dumber!! NO, now think of it, WHY has the topic poster put the hypen in between Bear and various?? - It's he who is to blame for me looking foolish!! Bill Mark, I ran off and read the thread, my question has been answered, it was not a fault, but artistic. Thanks Bill.  |  IP: Logged Brad Miller Administrator Posts: 17775 From: Plano, TX (36.2 miles NW of Rockwall) Registered: May 99 posted 12-23-2003 11:28 AM                     The title has been edited to show up in searches.  |  IP: Logged
