27 inch is toy

I never got the special features discs, (I won't call them the oot or out or Shout or pout) since I think it's just disrespectful to not treat the classics better or at least on the same level as the revised version. They must look good on regular tv though, but HD I'm guessing not. I also think non-anamorphic is truly crap. i should know. I ripped my rocketeer dvd to my hard drive only to discover it was non-anamorphic. I said "wtf" because it looked fine on my little tv just like all my other dvds, even recent ones, but of course as I learned from seeing the little crappy video image with huge black bars in the video formatted to fit a 4:3, this was a huge waste of space, and the video looked like a bad video stream when I blew it up to full screen on my laptop... and it's a damn pain in the ass to resize too. For me anyway.... I'm more used to converting anamorphic dvds to avi and such...

well that's my story. Treat star wars proper, george.
