I am disgusted that Film4 are now cropping films from 2.35:1 or 1.85:1 to
16:9.


Agreed, see my post further down the thread.

Just as importantly, did anyone watch the Fifth Element list night? I
caught about 10 minutes or so - the bit where Gary Oldman (in character,
of course) gets the empty box of stones and starts blasting the ceiling
of the room. Jeez, what on earth happened to the sound mix?

I hope that these are teething troubles for F4 on Freeview. It's bad
enough having ad. breaks (although I can appreciate why) without having
naff audio, as well as picture, by the sound of things (no pun intended).

Moaning about cropping is churlish.....

Nonsense! If they claim to be a specialist film channel they should show the
films as originally intended. That they are nominally free has no bearing on
the matter.

Not the films I watched when I subscribed a few times in the past.

What do you think about 4:3 programs being cropped to 16:9?

You gotta love widescreen, best thing since the plague.
