Big Fish has a negative ratio of 1.37 according to IMDB. The VHS and fullscreen DVD might be open matte.

Big Fish had some digital composites and VFX work all output to film and would have been rendered to a 1.66 ratio or thereabouts. The rest shot on 35mm would have used the full 1.37 area.

The original VHS of both The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile appear to be open matte in some scenes.

Both are opened up and show more top and bottom. The latter does have some CG VFX stuff zoomed in.

Does anyone own Jetsons: The Movie digitally through MA? I understand there's no chance of finding a 1.33 version in HD, but I'm curious if Movies Anywhere or the version to purchase/rent on DirectTV is opened up to 1.78? Amazon Video, iTunes, Google Play/YT, and Microsoft Store all use the 1.85 BD master.
