OSC -- I don't think the boom mike situation during the Antonio Banderas movie was the fault of the filmmakers or the studio. Usually when you repeatedly see the boom mike on screen, it's the fault of your theater's projectionist. As Roger Ebert explains:

"When you repeatedly see a boom mike in a movie, 99.9 percent of the time it is NOT the fault of the film's director, but of the projectionist in your theater, who has framed the film incorrectly. Many films contain additional real estate above and below the frame, to allow the picture to bleed off the edge of the screen. A complaint to the theater manager may do the trick."
