[Worst Case Scenario]

haven’t seen the new Star Trek movie but I loved the cock eyed angles and chopped close ups of the previous one. It made it just like the original series!

The worst thing I have ever seen done to a great movie was  some twenty years ago when the BBC showed 2001 a space odyssey. Some clever dick decided to include some wide screen shots of the spacecraft because the pan and scan version couldn’t get it all in. So the movie jumped in and out of wide screen. To hide this they painted fake stars onto the black bars top and bottom. Which kind of worked until the space ships came close enough to fill the screen and they  got cut off and replaced by the stars!
