2. How can I watch your so-called non cropped rip in your so-called 2.35:1 Anamorphic Widescreen image, mate?

   You can watch the movie in original 2.35:1 Anamorphic Widescreen / Scope (Anamorphic Lens), like you do in the theater, by setting the aspect ratio in your software player to 2.35:1. Aka Panavision, Cinemascope, Metrovision ect.

   Turn off any automatic or manual 16:9 cropping on your TV - if any and if used. Display setting on your flat screen you set to 1:1 pixel mapping or whatever the name is on your telly. On my own Pioneer Kuro LX5090H flat tv it's called 'Dot by Dot'

   If set correct then the image on your 16:9 flat screen should look something like the screen croppings on these links:

   You got image like in the link? Now please search 'Anamorphic Widescreen' in Youtube for more reference.

   Ok, now try do same playback procedure with a so-called "2.35:1" 1920x800 rip.

   If you want to watch 1.85:1 aspect ratio movies in the correct aspect ratio you then set the aspect ratio to 2.35:1, as well, and the image will have the "small" black bars.

   ---

   Aspect ratios on 16:9 flat tv (Display setting on tv set to 1:1 pixel mapping):

   1.33:1 - Black bars at sides of image (4:3) - Aka 1.37:1 Academy Standard

   1.78:1 - Full screen. Image fills whole of screen (16:9) - HDTV & Home Video

   1.85:1 - Black bars Top & Bottom of image (Small) - Movies, HDTV & Home Video

   2.35:1 - Black bars Top & Bottom of image (Big) - Aka 2.40:1 & Anamorphic Scope

3. Why don't You crop 2.35:1 Film Aspect Ratio Movies?
