Do you refuse to watch full screen movies?

[GtPrOjEcTX]

Not voting due to no option of "prefer widescreen, but will watch full screen."

 

[bandana163]

16:9 owns, I even use my monitor at 1600x900 sometimes.

Doesn't matter either way to me

 

[isekii]

I prefer Full Screen.

I don't have a wide screen TV. good ole 32" Sony.

 

[Zebo]

I'm worse than all of you. If it's modded 16:9 I won't watch it or "anomorphic" bs... only orignial movie ratios allowed. 2.35:1, 2.55:1, 3.00:1 etc. Who do these punks ripping these films to DVD think they are to know more/have more artistic vison than the director.

I'm the same way with music. I won't change any levels because I don't know more than the artists. I thnk it should be played how they meant it too be played.

 

[virtuamike]

I'll watch fullscreen but I'll refuse to buy or rent fullscreen.

Um, anamorphic doesn't mean that the transfer has been modified to a different ratio. All it means is that the DVD is encoded without black bars.

I will only purchase the widescreen versions of movies and play only the widescreen version on a dual format disc. Even though I only have a 27" TV I can't stand the Pan & Scan format knowing how much I could be missing watching it that way!

You know what I really hate ?

all my friends are starting to get these big wide screen hdtv's, and all of them put it in 'stretch' mode when on normal tv so it stretches out the 4:3 regular cable tv to 16:9 and it looks horrible everything is facked up

I ask then WTF tv looks like sheit on your $10k tv and they are like 'well I paid for all 50-whatever inches I want to use 'em"

Perhaps you should read it again. The original image is squezed along the x-axis distorting the picture to fit on 16:9. Not how the director intended.

Look how long the guys legs are on the distorted anamorphic disk in this photo:

http://www.thedigitalbits.com/articles/anamorphic/anamorphic235demo.html

And the balck bars may or may not be there depending on the aspect ratio the original production was shot in... they can only sqeeze so much before anamorphic becomes replusive to all.

You're the one reading it wrong. That movie you're looking at is 2.35:1, not even close to 16:9. They code in black bars to make the DVD 16:9 but the actual image is going to be 2.35:1 or whatever the director intended.

The note also says that will happen if the DVD player isn't setup correctly and it is trying to be displayed on a 4:3 TV. anamorphic transfers will display correctly on a widescreen TV, or a TV with widescreen enhancement, like that of the Sony TVs.

If the TV is 4:3 and the dvd anamorphic, and you want it to display correctly in ratio, then the DVD player would do the conversions as stated on the site.

Something to consider is that widescreen TVs are 16:9, as far as I know, there are no wider TVs than this unless you have a custom projection system with and adjustable screen. Even then, some movies are shot wider than 16:9, and thats why there are still black bars on some films when displayed on a widesreen TV. Thats what that website explains very clear to me.....

You're reading it wrong. Coding the disk as anamorphic allows more vertical info to be fit onto the disk, giving you a higher resolution (as long as your display correctly squeezes it back to the right height).

First you say then "encode without black bars" the you say they "code in black bars" which is it?

The issue I have with anamorphic is it's distorted on my TV, the fiqures looks "long". While none of the superbit disks I own are.. all widescreen version, not anamorphic, for some reason too? Why is that?

For a 16:9 image, there are no black bars. The black bars only appear for formats wider than 16:9. Anamorphic DVDs look wrong on your TV because you've got your DVD player set for a widescreen TV, not for a 4:3 TV. Change that and it'll look right.

Really! All this time.

All the superbit disks look fine. But then they don't come in anamorphic.

I rented the widescreen version of Ronin and got the full screen version instead. I complained and returned it without watching it and got something else instead.
