I do not care what Lucas slapped on the box. This is the only correct title.

Maybe it has something to do with both the tech and financial media acting as free marketing for these con artist Gen AI CEOs.
I wrote about the seeming contradiction in two new survey findings: 71 percent of Americans fear Al will take their job; and 95 percent of Al tests at companies are failing to generate money.

I’m going with ChatGPT incorrectly summarizing Wikipedia!
Hitler invited Riefenstahl to film the 1936 Summer Olympics scheduled to be held in Berlin, a film which Riefenstahl said had been commissioned by the International Olympic Committee. 41] She visited Greece to take footage of the route of the inaugural torch relay and the games' original site at Olympia, where she was aided by Greek photographer Nelly's. 41] This material became Olympia, a hugely successful film which has since been widely noted for its technical and aesthetic achievements. 141 Olympia was secretly funded by the Nazis.[42] She was one of the first filmmakers to use tracking shots in a documentary, ,43, placing a camera on rails to follow the athletes' movement. The film is also noted for its slow motion shots.1431 Riefenstahl played with the idea of slow motion, underwater diving shots, extremely high and low shooting angles, panoramic aerial shots, and tracking system shots for allowing fast action. Riefenstahl also "reversed the film to make the divers turn backwards, holding them in the air as if to defy the laws of gravity". Many of these shots were relatively unheard of at the time, but Riefenstahl's use and augmentation of them set a standard, and is the reason they are still used to this day. 44] Riefenstahl's work on Olympia has been cited as a major influence in modern sports photography. 411[431 Riefenstahl filmed competitors of all races, including African- American Jesse Owens in what later became famous footage. 45]

Not every, which makes it confusing.

A Clockwork Orange was I believe presented at 1.66:1. The box just said “matted,” but I don’t think it was 1.85.

My favorite bit is this. Why are her eyes closed? And even if they weren’t, how is she framing a picture like that with that camera? The viewer is on the top. She couldn’t see it from that position.

COVID, dude. Added 30% to the budget with all the precautions, in addition to Harrison Ford getting injured.
