Not entirely accurate. Their DVD is a direct copy of their LD, since they used the same source material, and did not remaster for the DVD, of course it's non-anamorphic (which is GOOD because it's 1.66:1).



Why is that good? I'd take anamorphic enhancement over non-enhanced material (unless it's fullframe)
