1.85 period and everyone should stop positing otherwise. It's ridiculous. If Rob Ager, whoever he is, said 4.3 then he's an idiot.

Well, that's what sfx were back then.

In the theater? When it came out?

Oh, boy. I'm done. And this time I mean it. Agree to disagree indeed.

It is my contention that he knew he could fix the shot, but, he died. This isn't brain surgery. He didn't need to do another take for that simple reason. Warners corrected the error. Why'd they do that? For fun? He never fine cut the film and finished it. And I feel just as confident as...

Jeez, already. It's not a question of it being a bigger error, it's a question of it being AMATEUR and something he knew he would remove in post and had he lived he would have. Why do I have the feeling that in days of old you were probably one of the "but Stanley preferred Academy ratio, in...

And I'll bite my tongue so there'll be a lot of bitten tongues. Again, if you're comparing barely seen rotor blades to a reflection of the director and his camera and his crew in a mirror I don't know what to tell you. Well, I can tell you that rotor blades barely seen in 1.85 is not a mistake...

You're on your own, I give up. Believe what you will, and I'll believe what's real. The fact that you equate barely-seen rotor blades to seeing a full reflection of the director, the camera and the crew says all I need to know.

Sorry, you're arguing just to argue. There is nothing in ANY Kubrick film like that reflection in the mirror - anyone who thinks he would have allowed that to go out to the public knows nothing about him or his films, sorry. I had dinner with Vitali at a mutual friends - he confirmed to me...

Sorry, these are incredibly idiotic even by imdb standards :) There are continuity errors like most of this minor crap they're going on about in every movie ever made. Not so much now because they CGI every little moment to death. But thanks for reminding me why I rarely visit the imdb

Well, I'm sure you understand the the helicopter blades were not visible in the film as projected in 1.85, you know, the ratio it was composed for, so you're quite wrong on that score. The fact that he didn't mind it for 4.3 TVs is irrelevant.

I understand that's the party line, but the reality is what was on the screen back in the day. Kubrick would never have released the film that way - minimally he would have removed the mirror reflection of he and his crew - where is the justification for that remaining in the film? That's just...

Let's be real here: Mr. Kubrick did not supervise the release prints, due to the fact he was - dead. The release prints for Eyes Wide Shut were horrible, period. Mr. Kubrick, I believe, never even fine cut the film, otherwise he most certainly would not have left in the shot of he and the crew...
