Re: Why? Are you implying the audio and video are somehow in the same legue?

Granted. The camera lies 24 frames a second. But that doesn't mean
that we shouldn't try to present a film in as close to a condition and format that the film makers intended. And film audio, consisting of a mixdown from a buzillion channels, could never be convincing as real, live music. But again, that's no reason why we shouldn't try to reproduce what the film/audio gurus have put on the soundtrack (aren't your amplifiers used by some of the most respected audio techs in Hollywood?).

So I try to watch a 4 x 3 black and white film on video in that aspect ratio with the monitor set at 5400K. And when I watch a 1.85 x 1 or a 2.39 x 1 color film I see it in those aspect ratios at 6500K with the appropriate stereo or surround sound format. I find that this attention to detail and accuracy heightens the suspension of disbelief and intensifies viewer/listener involvment.
