The Odyssey is coming out soon and I'm excited to see it but I really hate how complicated movie watching has become because of an artificial problem the studios created. I think studios should just do away with reserving the largest image for only a small amount of theaters and screens (some people prefer to wait for streaming!).
There are barely any theaters that are of showing The Odyssey in the largest format (1.43:1).
Rather than having conversions that begin with "what format did you watch it in?", people can actually just discuss the movie.
Do you know anyone that watches movies on a screen that isn't 16:9? It's fine if I see black bars on the side. Just format the movie for home video (digital or disc) consistently with the biggest format. It's really that simple.
