I usually see in the 40%s when I encode a stereo mix for a movie. That is 24/96. Why would the percentage change from a change in bit depth? I was just suggesting to use 24 in the formula to find the size because most lossless film tracks are 24 bits and not 16. A FLAC encoding from a DTS-HD or TrueHD should not be very far off in size from the original.
