Expecting other people to do your work for you is a pretty poor trait.

They’re just a buncha links to pictures. I clicked a few and they were for the 2004 DVD differences. I’m suppposed to assume they included some for the Blu Rays?

I wish I could’ve held out on buying these as long as you have. I admire your willpower. (It was the deleted scenes that got me to buy them at all – and I still feel guilty about it.)

Finally got the blu-rays. For those wondering, this is the set I got:

http://www.walmart.ca/en/ip/star-wars-trilogy-episodes-iv-vi-a-new-hope-the-empire-strikes-back-return-of-the-jedi-blu-ray-dvd-bilingual/6000124060446

I watched Episode IV, as per the changes list there weren’t too many changes. Today I’ll watch the empire strikes back. I wish the movie didn’t have black bars around the top and bottom tho. Of course if that’s all that was filmed then that’s how I have to take it, but I woulda rather had the space taken up by video.

Don’t, just don’t.

Just buy a display with the correct aspect ratio. Done and done.

I love how he says, "if that’s all that was filmed,"as if the photographer missed something, as if reality exists in an aspect ratio of 16x9.

I’m not sure if I even like the recent change of aspect ratio in movie theaters now a days. 2.35:1 or bust.

I never really touch the screen ratio settings on my tv and have no idea if it suppports the screen ratio the blu ray supports. But thanks for that youtube clip. Enjoyed getting another opinion of SW TFA. I didn’t really read alot of opinions about it but heard alot of people complain that it copies IV. I don’t know if I’ll ever buy VII, cause I know it’s coming on Starz so all I have to do is record it to DVR, won’t cost a cent. I had to buy I-VI tho cause they aren’t showing that in the US for a couple years now. And last time they were the dvd prints, not the blu-rays.

What?

if you touch your screen too much you might get greasy smudges on it, no mater what ratio of touching to not touching.

Well, I watched Episode VI today. It has a really strong start but kinda drags on after that. Then it gets good at the end. Overall, these’ll be good movies to have going in the background in my room while I sit at the computer. Not as fun just sitting in a chair watching them tho. Now I gotta get I-III. Which I will next month.

I still want to know what you mean when you say you have no idea if your tv supports the ratio the blu-ray supports.

I think he means he never took geometry. Because, if it did support it, no matter the source aspect ratio, it would magically fit his screen.

I never adjusted the screen ratio. So it’s on factory default right now. So if the tv is capable of a screen ratio better fitting of the blu-ray I wouldn’t know.
