Sith to be cropped for IMAX?
Over at imdb.com, I see that the Technical Specifications for Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith (2005) list an IMAX DMR version (good) and that the aspect ratio is 1.81:1 (bad) which is reduced from the original aspect ratio 2.35:1. It would be a shame if Lucasfilm finally decided to release Revenge of the Sith in IMAX DMR only to mangle the aspect ratio! All IMAX DMR releases since 2003 (such as Batman Begins, Harry Potter 3 and The Matrix Reloaded) have preserved their original 2.35:1 aspect ratio, so I don't see why Revenge of the Sith has to resort to outdated 2002 cropping practices. I wonder if Lucasfilm has cropping plans for the 3D re-releases of the Star Wars films?
