From that remark it seems you just want to stand out.

It's a statement of fact nothing more.
You don't make a great deal of sense in your comments.

Fact? More like opinion. If most TV is about people you have to accept
that forcing two people into a 4:3 frame is very unnatural. Most peole
like space, and space is what 16:9 gives.

Wrong most people like to have the most effective aspect ratio possible
and whether you believe in initelligent design or darwin evolution the
fact
is that you ended up with 1:1 (round). Some people may have thier heads
stuck so far up their own asses that the 'prefer' 16:9 or 2.25:1 but
then
some people have don't know thie own ass from their elbow.

I presume you watch TV with your head in a vice and your eyes glued in
their sockets!

Fact is your brain is designed to see a round image.
I presume you watch TV from inside a letter box.
Which must be convienient as it is perfect for seeing two people sitting
on a sofa.
Which is what all TV consists of. lets just hope they don't stand up.
Must be bad watch in Film 2007 with JR though with just him sitting by
himself eh?

It seems Mr Ross has solved this thorny issue by sitting slightly to the
left
of centre which avoids having acres of empty space on the left hand side
however unfortunatley it leaves a huge empy wasted space on the right.

Maybe a flower pot or hat stand could be used to make the picture look
less f**king stupid.
