    The Hateful Eight (2015)

    Funny you should say that as yesterday I was talking with somebody who is a work colleague of the guy who popularized the conecept in the late 90ies I believe :) I have used a 2.2:1 and 2.15:1 aspect ratios for quite some time in order to make 16:9 and 1.85:1 aspect ratio movies look bigger...

    Unfortunately seamless branching seems to be mostly a pipedream as otherwise we could accomodate multiple versions on one disc. I am all for having choices as people have different feelings about different cuts, for example I really like the Spartacus scene with Olivier and Curtis as it gives...
