Then I saw the mother of all bad pan and scan decisions in known home video history...

The final scene of THX on the surface is not squeezed, letterboxed, nor does it pan over to show the final credits. It stays parked on the left side of the frame for the duration. You never see the credits! Did the telecine operator pass out in a drunken stupor by this point? Or did he simply leave the room to take a leak? We will probably never know! :P

LOL and again LOL!

Ah come on!

At this point I think we can already outline a list of different version (including the pan scan monstruosities) which seems to be almost at level with the original Star Wars. In the meantime I'm trying to retrieve from different sources a Warner Video THX in Italian. I'll keep you updated.
