Actually 2001: A Space Odyssey was shot in 70mm film with aspect ratio 2.21:1. In DVD releases there are usually narrow bands of image missing from all sides (perhaps because the transfer was made from a 35mm 2.35:1 copy), but at least Amazon lists 2.21:1 as an aspect ratio for their 2001 DVD releases.
