Yes even Mr. Harris said this a "new" Universal. I trust him and I trust them about this release of Spartacus after a great job on Apollo 13 20th anniversary edition

What metaphors? :)

Yeah, some Technirama movies were projected on Cinerama screens... That's why it get confusing.... But I suppose those were not 70mm blow-up prints (marketing name: Super Technirama 70)

That's probably my mistake: I always assumed that Cinerama and Technirama were somehow related because of the similar names...

That's weird, I remember reading about Technirama movies shown on giant deeply curved screens I still don't get how and why the Leopard was restored with AR 2.55:1 by Fox Pathe and Film Foundation then... Anyway I guess Spartacus will retain the 70mm prints AR of 2.20:1 for this new...

I think Sleeping Beauty and the Leopard are actually WIDER and not matted, Robert, look at these: http://www.caps-a-holic.com/hd_vergleiche/multi_comparison.php?disc1=3305&disc2=3304&cap1=30402&cap2=30386&art=full&image=0&hd_multiID=1379&action=1&lossless=#vergleich...

I have a question about Spartacus and Technirama in general: some Technirama movies like Sleeping Beauty and The Leopard have been restored with a full negative aspect ratio of 2.55:1. Why is that and could Spartacus get a wider aspect ratio from this 4K OCN Restoration?
