I always use strict anamorphic, that gives the largest possible
resolution.

Detelecine for NTSC film, decomb for NTSC video(TV) or PAL.

For average bit rate mode the same formula:
Size in kbits/time in seconds
so
1500000*8/(90x60)=2222 kbps total
less the audio bitrate (you can find the audio bitrate with mediainfo)
probably about 2000.


However, I wouldn't do that.
I use constant quality mode crf=20. If the file is too big , I would
increase the crf by 1 and redo until it is small enough.

I use the very slow x264 preset which gives maximum compression and the
film tune for films.

High profile, level 3.0

The handbrake domumentation is pretty good
