Info: Toy Story on 35mm, and other early Pixar films for that matter...
Time

Some people were saying that the LD was “cropped”, which isn’t the case. The Blu-ray release had (slight) open mattes, opening it from 1.85:1 (the original theatrical ratio) to 1.78:1 (the HDTV standard). Just thought I’d throw my opinion into the ring and say we should crop the BD to 1.85:1 to really get an “authentic” theatrical version.

Idea: for an Ant-Man fan edit..?
Time

So, when watching the featurettes for Ant-Man on the Blu-ray disc, the film’s director, Peyton Reed, stated that the film was originally framed for 2.4:1 with a shooting ratio of 1.78:1, but during post he realized that when you shrink everything expands vertically. So he opened it to 1.85:1. I had an idea to keep the 1.85:1 frame for the macro size shots and scenes, but reframe the rest of the movie to 2.4:1. Just a thought because I don’t have the money for a Blu-ray ripper.

Blu-Ray and other HD box size STAR WARS covers

Cover

A cover for the DeEd I made while tired. It has the opening crawls on the back, and a Force Awakens-style Original Trilogy logo with the font used for the logo of my personal favorite movie (props to whoever recognizes it) and has “A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…” on the top of the back, which came directly from the DeEd.
PM me for the actual cover.
