I just happened to notice that Kochās Blu-ray release of āA Sky Full of Starsā¦ā is going to be presented in 1:77 instead of itās OAR of 2:35. It was 2:35 on the DVD release from their box set a few years ago. I wonder why this is and now I am not sure whether to upgrade.

I think thatās a typo. The Koch Media release of the same move from 2013 was in 2.35:1 so this one is probably too.
It does happen though. Anchor Bay released Lion of the Desert on DVD in 2.35:1 and the Blu-ray in 1.78:1. Such a shame!
I elect to think that Koch Media wouldnāt make such a gigantic blunder 
The screenshots accompanying the release on the Koch Media website are also in aspect ratios closer to 2.35:1 than 1.77:1 which also fodders my optimism.
I would always take the spec sheets on the website with a grain of salt. On the other hand, as @The_Man_With_a_Name points out, it does happen from time to time. If the material they acquired for this HD release was scanned in a way that maybe damages on the sides or whatever were masked, or the material was a masked version to begin withā¦ unfortunately I donāt have the disc yet so I canāt confirm
Yes but if you are Koch Media that will not happen I only remember them releasing one spaghetti western in the wrong aspect ratio and that was Shoot the Livingā¦ 14 years ago.
Seriously this is not going to happen. They would be crucified.
I remember Koch did release another DVD in 1:33 some years back other than Shoot the Livingā¦ man I canāt recall the title, it was from the rainbow collection I believe. But point taken, Koch is almost always on point with the OARās.
FĆ¼r einen Sarg voller Dollars was released in 1.33:1 but Iām pretty sure that was an open matte transfer so that was fine.
Yep that is the one I was thinking of!!!
Yes, that and Baldiās Hate They Neighbour were 4:3 open matte releases. The master was that way, and it seems they canāt mask it to the theatrically correct aspect ratio1,85:1 (or maybe 1,66:1) themselves.
Of course it is possible to get in that case via the zoom function of Player or TV an aspect ratio close to the intended one.
