Are there any other facts that you are fairly certain of? I imagine
someone with your convictions could be fairly certain that the earth
is flat and that the moon landing was faked.
You should try to become more informed about a subject before you
claim to be "fairly certain" about anything. Your knowledge of film
aspect ratios and home video formats is somewhat lacking. Perhaps you
should read up a little. I would suggest doing searches with the
keywords "open matte transfer" and "anamorphic 2.35 aspect ratio"
before you claim to know what the norm is for today's movies. You'll
find that there are a high percentage of movies which cannot be
transfered open matte as you suggest.
I would also suggest that seeing more picture doesn't mean seeing a
better picture.
