I usually don't even notice after I've been watching for 5 minutes, either way. Why would you rip up the receipt? At least then you could dig through the garbage and grab it if it bothers you that much :lol

Old people are confused and think they're getting the full picture with fullscreen.

I accidentally picked up the full screen version of Casino Royale. It was a huge display of the special editions that came with a card set, and all of the ones I saw said widescreen. So I picked one up that didn't have any creases in the packaging and bought it, only to get home and find out that I grabbed a full screen.  :-\

I did end up returning it for the last widescreen version they had though.
WDW

fullscreen Children of Men?  Ouch, that's like getting a PG-version of Goodfellas.

I hate the new format wars, but I'm quite glad that fullscreen will die off when DVD's do.  Of course that's still years away, and the DVD market is getting more mass market all the time (more Wal-Mart-ized, if you will), which means even more fullscreening shit enroute.

Cant wait till they are all gone. I bought Casino Royale fullscreen on accident. Fucking tiny ass print. Thank god the next format will be exclusively widescreen. God knows what resolution it'll be at.

I just watched Children of Men, not as good as the book. Prestige was a better movie.
