Even before the advent of DVDs, I loved widescreen whenever I came across it. When I first decided to buy a DVD player, one of the main things I wanted it for was so that I could watch everything in widescreen. In fact, I adamantly refuse to buy anything in fullscreen (excepting a couple of TV shows, like Chappelle's Show, which have no other option, so they really don't count). My Wal-Mart at home had copies of Road to Perdition and Spy Game that I would have bought long ago, had they provided both formats, but alas, they're only full-frame. My parents don't particularly like the bars on the top and bottom of the screen, so anytime I'm at home and I rent a movie for us to watch, I always have to compromise and pick up the fullscreen version. Oh, well.

I dream of the day when I'll finally be able to sit down and watch the original trilogy in widescreen glory.
