I think it's more like 60%. It also depends on how much your television overscans an image. It could make it worse!

Warbler: I agree that I'd pick widescreen films over Pan and Scan anyday of the week! The distortions are just inherent to the technology of the day. Just like bad SPFX, you've gotta deal with it.
