Anamorphic

[Frankie]

I know it's better to have an Anamorphic transfer for DVD. But I don't have a Widescreen TV so I can't see much of a difference if any when I watch a movie that's Anamorphic or not.

Is it just me or is this the case for everyone that doesn't have a 16:9 TV?

The short answer is, sometimes it's you. Personally, I can tell the difference between most anamorphic and non-anamorphic transfers. But a great deal of that too depends on the quality of the transfer itself as well as the equipment you play and view it on.

Plus some people have 4:3 sets that do the anamorphic squeeze trick.

lets face it, within 10 years alot of us will own 16X9 sets, i think that January or December 2006 has been set as the last month that 4:3 tvs will be produced and all brodcasts after that date will have to be in widescreen. in the words of the Joker.. "Think About The Future!"

I don't have a 16x9 TV, but I still look for anamorphic titles. Two reasons for this:

1. Someday I will have a widescreen TV when HDTV is more affordable.

2. An anamoprhic trasnfer generally means a new transfer and not a recycled LD transfer that's substandard.
