What are your sources? ocpmovie's DVD-Rs came from a R2 Japanese 16x9 DVD (Miramax cut) and a letterboxed screener VHS (Princess cut). I know he's the only one in the world that has that screener tape and the Japanese disc is out of print. The pan & scan Miramax cut is off limits (and worthless) since it's widely available in R1.

Why on earth would you want to create a pan & scan Recobbled Cut? ocpmovie spent quite a lot of time searching out sources to give us a 100% widescreen version. If anyone absolutely can't stand seeing the film in widescreen, they can just watch the crappy pan & scan Miramax DVD. I know of the controversies surrounding ocpmovie and bootlegging here, but you have no right to butcher such a great fan edit. The film has suffered enough with pan & scan DVDs being out there and it would help if the fullscreen versions were wiped off the radar completely.
