It is a film term for perserving the original aspect ratio on a screen that does not naturally accomadate it. So if you ever watched a film on a television and saw black bars at top and bottom that is called lettboxing. Some games have adopted this practice I guess to give games a "film aesthetic". |
What is the term for when a movie is preserved in it's normal ratio, but the top, bottom AND right and left sides are black? Do you know what I mean? Like, when you're watching it on a 16:9 screen, it's 16:9... but tiny. I ask because I have the Starwars DVD's that have the original version of the film, but there's like that so I have to sctrech them to fit the damn TV lol
