"GalaxyQuest" is in about a 1.85 aspect ratio for the first 20 or so
minutes before changing to a full widescreen ratio. Can anybody think of
other films that also mixed ratios? Not counting ones where it's motivated
by something like a video monitor.

(If you didn't see "GalaxyQuest" theatrically then you'll miss this since
the studio decided it would be too confusing for home viewing so the tape
and DVD are both one ratio throughout.)
