Yeah, I would say it's a pan and scan vs widescreen thing. I discovered widescreen in the mid-1990s and it blew my mind--shots that I had grown up with (Star Wars, for example) actually looked VERY different in their original composition. Part of the excitement of discovering widescreen was that it was like watching the films for the first time all over again. Especially anamorphc "scope" films. In 1998, I spent $90 for a widescreen VHS set of the OT SE--and it was dented, on top of it! But I knew I would be seeing the films "for the first time again". I was 12 years old. For a 12 year to spend $90 dollars on films he already had--and not just the OOT, I already bought the pan and scan SE the year earlier--it was practically crazy. This was all the money I had!
