> Our FOV is wide, so it's a better match.

It's pretty big vertically as well. IMAX is close to 4:3

I've wondered why they haven't done an anamorphic IMAX to use the full screen instead of cutting back and forth from wide to square.

I though IMAX was almost 4:2, but it looks like there are two ratios, 1.43:1 and 1.90:1. So 4:2.8 and 4:2.1.
