[Beat Takeshi]

How is 16x9 said in this format?
1.33:1

 

[gco]

Mathematically speaking, standard TV aspect 4:3 is 1.33:1 --meaning the image is 1.33 times as wide as it is tall.
Anamorphic Widescreen 16:9 is 1.78:1---image is 1.78 times as wide as it is tall.
Theater is 1.85:1.
Theater "scope" is 2.35:1.

What's better, theater 1:85:1 or theater scope 2:35:1?

there is no "better." It depends on how you want to present your story, through a academy or cinemascope aspect ratio.
