So, I caved in and bought the "Limited Edition" DVDs even though I already had the 2004 DVD box set. Right now, I am still using a standard CRT TV set at home, so the OOT in letterbox format looks fine.

At work, there is a big widescreen HDTV and an XBox 360. I brought my Star Wars OOT "Bonus Disc" and tried to watch it--arrrgh. I can see why everyone hates the non-anamorphic release now, it looks like a RealPlayer video when you try to zoom out the lback bars

However, this is a gigantic television set.

So when I finally buy a plasma widescreen, my OOT "bonus discs" will be pretty much inadequate for me to enjoy SW. Maybe if I get a smaller widescreen, it won't be as bad?

P.S.: would it be considered rude if I gave away my '04 DVDs to friends as Christmas presents? They've only been watched once.
