The Lighthouse was actually in 1:1.19, to mimic the look of the earliest sound-era films where the recorded sound was printed directly onto the side of the frames and had to be cropped out.

It's officially the dumbest part of SnyderCut discourse because 4:3 has literally been having a big resurgence over the past decade: https://noamkroll.com/why-the-old-school-43-aspect-ratio-is-coming-back-with-a-vengeance-right-now/ https://www.shutterstock.com/blog/4-3-aspect-ratio Edit: worth noting that 2.35:1 was treated like a gimmick when it first came out, as movies were promising More Screen to compete against television's rising popularity. Fritz Lang disparaged CinemaScope, saying it was "only good for filming snakes and funerals." Nroo fucked around with this message at 19:51 on Mar 18, 2021 |

The film was clearly shot and "protected" for multiple aspect ratios, back in 2016, so it could be shown in IMAX and also cropped in widescreen for standard theaters. This was the case for many films during the transition to widescreen as not every theater was updated. And directors like Kubrick protected his shots so that the framing would be intact on 4:3 TVs. Snyder is releasing JL in 4:3 because it's the full, uncropped image. Here's an example of how a film is shot and projected in multiple aspect ratios by design: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s7-aMi4Rr-4

Zaphod42 posted:Yeah sure but nobody has 4:3 TVs anymore. Snyder shot on 35mm film, in 4:3, in such a way that it would be framed correctly in both IMAX and cropped 1.85:1 in standard cinemas. He's releasing it now in full 4:3 so that all the imagery remains with no cropping.

Zaphod42 posted:Yeah but if you shoot it intending to crop for 1.85:1 or 1.9:1 then that implies that your cameras had filters to display those ratios during filming and you set up your cameras using those aspects as guides for where the action needed to be. It was shot for the 1.43:1 IMAX aspect ratio, not the 1.9:1 RBA Starblade posted:Serious question: did people trying filming in a 1:1 ratio for very long? How long did we go with it if we ever did? That's far more of a novelty but there are 2 examples I can think of: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9LVLCYvqSI https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4iQXpdcX33A Nroo fucked around with this message at 20:47 on Mar 18, 2021 |

Zaphod42 posted:Still doesn't change that it was meant to support both 1.43:1 and 1.85:1 then and 4:3 makes less sense than anything. Because the difference between 1.33:1 and 1.43:1 is pretty much negligible? It probably saved time to not have to bother cropping the whole 4 hour movie, shot-by-shot, by just a very tiny bit when the full-frame is already composed fine.

The notion that the reason modern filmmakers adopt a 4:3 aspect ratio is just to give their movies a "sense of claustrophobia" is such horseshit.

Superhero films are expected to be serviceable nonconfrontational entertainment, and that's the opposite of what MoS was trying to be.

The use of "Grimdark" is more about criticizing the creator and hypothetical audience as being adolescent in their taste. Try to pin down what are the qualifications for the work itself to be "grimdark" and it falls apart.

Watch some South Korean films to learn that weird tonal whiplashes are fuckin dope and should be more prevalent.

The idea of characters needing to have solo movies before the ensemble film only seems to apply to these superhero films. It doesn't come up with other narratives because the idea stems from seeing them more as individual trademarked IPs than, you know, characters.

My interpretation is he disappeared for a bit due to the amount of time spent in an alternate timeline, being able to reappear once enough time passed that everyone else had caught up.
