How the Fabelmans poster becomes a real fake movie

Also, a quick look at the 35mm film strips on the poster reveals that the film strips have no soundtrack. This is because the picture goes all the way to the perfs on either side, meaning a sound player would have to be turned off entirely to accommodate.

A mono soundtrack usually sits between picture and performance on the right side of the picture. Mono tracks can appear in several ways. Some mono tracks look like a band of alternating shades of gray. These are called variable density tracks. Other mono tracks, optical tracks, have a "richer" looking white squiggle. There can be one, two or even five mono tracks. If the squiggles are all the same, the audience will hear the same audio information from every speaker in the theater. If the squiggles differ, it's likely a Dolby stereo print, with different information making its way to separate audio channels.

"The Fabelmans" is clearly not about digital audio tracks, otherwise you might have to look for a fuzzy Dolby track between the perfs, a track that looks like "Morse code" for DTS (remember DTS? Those who played their sound from compact discs). Or, in some cases, the sound may appear as two digital tracks on the outer edge of the film. This is for SDDS. Remember SDDS?.

Let's hope someone corrects these serious errors before the movie is released, otherwise no one will be able to take the movie seriously.
