Can I ask a simple question? Deduce this for yourselves. What is the primary distinction between an open matte live action film and an animated feature? Answer that, and you probably already know why this "open matte" analogy is DOA.

The above was condescening and rude. No more so than that extended to me. You give it, be ready to take it. The question is a simple matter of whether or not the film was composed for the more constrictive widescreen ratio and...

I admit that Disney animation has not been an emphasis for me, but the statement that Quote: The "whole image" is the "whole originally photographed image" is as generally erroneous with respect to animated films as in the case of...

Provide MORE evidence? What, you don't trust your own eyes? (see the link from UltmateDisney's review in the first post on this thread). You admit ignorance of Disney Feature Animation production techniques? That's no surprise, most...
