Does anyone know what was the intended aspect ratio for the Ziggy movie. I've noticed that the bluray is 4:3, and my old dvd also is 4:3
But there seems to be a remastered DVD with 1,85:1 aspect ratio. I this just a crop?
Did anyone watch it at the movies and recall which aspect ratio it was shown in?

4:3 and 1.33:1 are the same ratio of width to height, just divide 4 by 3 and you get 1.333333.... so it's the same ratio just expressed differently, 4:3 expresses it in whole numbers, 1.33 : 1 expresses it by keeping the vertical at a value of "1" and letting the horizontal not be a whole number.

Not me being a clever clogs...just looked it up on 'tinernet !!!

The 2003 release seems to have the widescreen aspect ratio

Probably just a crop of the original movie. But I'd like to know for sure

Have you heard the full show at all?
Missing bits include the following:
1 - Intro to 'My Death' - "Shhh - this is a quiet song"
2 - Flubbed intro to 'My Death', resulting in restart
3 - Missing Intro to Second Set after intermission ' William Tell Overture'
4 - Intro to 'Cracked Actor' is badly cropped
5 - Retirement/Farewell speech is butchered
