I do not try and help anyone if they don't ask. I just try and mind my own business.

I do notice at a lot of stores (Suncoast is a perfect example) if they have a display up front, all the full screen versions are on the front display and the widescreens are on the regular shelves, or on the backside of the display. I don't think that is fair. It's as if retailers are deliberately trying to get full screen purchased so studios lean towards full screen releases only.

Well, you know it will be all those full screen owning DVD people that will be complaining someday when TV's all go to 16:9. Oh well.

If someone asks my opinion, I gladly help if I have to time. I always end up knowing more than the slaes clerk at the store.
