An example of something new for me in the correct aspect ratio: in the hellscape dream at the end, as the camera zooms in on the burning wreckage of the Cygnus, each side of the screen is filled with a column of zombie crew without their reflective masks.
“This is really dark for a Disney movie.” “The company had some creative difficulties after Walt died that ended with Little Mermaid.”
My son was immediately enamored with VINCENT and was distressed when he was briefly adrift in the opening scene. He really digs Maximillian’s design. “He looks like a demon.”
Watched _The Black Hole_ for the first time in many years on Disney+ with my almost 13yo son. This was the first time I’d ever seen it in the correct aspect ratio, so a few things threw me off. Disney did a decent job making it look good on 1080p, but they didn’t touch up any effects shots, which is just as well. Despite the quality of the writing or direction, I was just astonished to see a story like this edited to around 90 minutes. I didn’t find the film to drag much anywhere.
Been meaning to share this with @shanecyr for ages, and I'm sure it'll prompt a block, and it'll be well-deserved. https://youtu.be/DsoCe7C4Kmk
@jimray I've gotten several at the office to adopt the iOS beta to experience Dark Mode, and we're all very happy so far.
