Well, after school and homework today I went (more like ran) to Circuit City and got Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith on DVD!!! I’m watching it now and it’s SOOOO cool, and amazing and awesome and I’m going to get to the deleted scenes next, and then the special features, and the other millions of cool stuff on it!!!
Also, there was the question to get widescreen of fullscreen. Since movies are filmed with W I D E R frames than tv, there are two ways to watch it on a tv. One: Cutting off a little bit on each side and when neccessary moving or sometimes zooming the frame to focus on the imprortant part. Widescreen is just making the frame’s width the same as the tv’s width so that there are black bars at the top and bottom of the screen. Below are pics of the two versions (thanks to starwars.com)
Personally, I currently prefer widescreen, especially for Star Wars, since there are many cameos or little things that are on the side of the screen that usually get cut off. BUT, for episodes 1 and 2 I had full screen, and for 4, 5, and 6 I had widescreen. So, which do I choose? Well, I chose widescreen just because… I don’t know, because I like it better. I don’t care if it really isn’t consistent anyway. So that’s that and it’s cool!
