I'm sorry, but I just don't have the stuff on my computer to do this, and I hope I dont' lose credibility, cause I can understand anyone who is suspect of this post.

I have had a HighDef TV since Jan 05, and I have never really watched a non-anamorphic movie since, because it was insulting to put that crap on this great TV. The Hoosiers DVD is the only DVD I have to compare Non & Anamorphic.

But I did put in some of my early DVD buys that I haven't watched because they are non-anamorphic:

Crimson Tide (1995)
Romancing the Stone (1984)
True Lies (1994)
The Abyss (1989)
Home Alone (1990)
Breakdown (1997)
Patriot Games (1992)

All these movies are non-anamorphic and taken from laserdisk masters, and I have to say they were all pretty good, and if the O-OT was this quality, I really wouldn't complain.

Trust me, I put in my Lord of the Rings DVD's, and they are just stunning, but as I said, it wasn't like when you watch a VHS tape, or even my SW OT bootlegs, where you see in the first 5 seconds the quality drop. I never had a laserdisk player, so I can't tell you about that quality.

For anyone who has any non-anamorphics in you collection, whether it be a widescreen TV or not, put it in and then put in an anamorphic DVD from that time period. I tried to find older movies that are non-anamorphic, so it would be of that time of the 1993 laserdisk they are taking it from.

I know Lucas is a dick, and trust me, I have been enraged since finding about this shit he is pulling, but I am just being honest, I really think I am gonna buy them, cause there wasn't that HUGE of difference where I would say within seconds, "This is just shit quality!" All those Non-Anamorphic DVD's were actually pretty good I watched scenes from tonight. Not spectacular, but not worth the boycott of missing the movies I love.

I am sorry guys, but I have to say I have done a 180, but atleast it was from a comparison, so I am being honest with myself.

The only thing I can tell you guys to do is maybe rent a DVD from Blockbuster that is non-anamorphic and do the comparison yourself.

Lucas is fucking us, so might as well enjoy the movies we love, instead of seeing Hayden in ROTJ!
