Ha! I don't know - incorrect aspect ratios have always bothered me. You can tell something is slightly off-center, or worse, missing. 1.85:1 to 1.78:1 is usually okay as it just involves opening the frame slightly. There's very little difference and I doubt most would notice. The other re-frames involve a lot of cropping or zooming out. Compare the Apocalypse Now DVD (2:00.1) with the BluRay (2.39:1). 2.00:1 2.39:1 2.00:1 2.39:1 Not only is it awkward looking in terms of composition, it also ruined the optical effects in the opening sequence. And then there is the Saw VHS, which opened the 1.85:1 frame completely to get a 1.33:1 ratio. There are many moments where Ken Leung is suddenly transformed into Leigh Whannell

Maybe it was shot like The Last Emperor, where it was shot with both 2:00.1 and 2.39:1 in mind. I think a lot of theatres were pushing 1.66:1 out in favour of 1.85:1 then, so maybe Soavi agreed to frame the film to suit both ratios.

Fans are asking questions on their FB page, about the extras etc. But as usual no answers. What is the ****ing point, having a FB page, if they don't answer their fans?

Wonder if they are sending out the movie, so we'll have it on, or before, the release date? First time ordering directly from Shameless, so I don't know how fast or slow they usually are at this.

If you ordered The Church direct from Shameless then it will not be dispatched until the release date according to their web page. Shameless Films :: Blu-rays :: The Church aka La Chiesa Blu-ray |

Am waiting until oct 31st to see if Amazon's pre order price on the dvd comes down (both The Sect & The Church are about £26 each at the moment), not sure why amazon are not price matching?

Why not just buy it from HMV? It's free postage over £10.
