Remember a while back a cry about how the movie industry is going away from widescreen..

i got oceans 11 the movie.. and guess what its full screen.. arrgh

now i got to see if there is a widescreen version. my brother bought this one.. next time he buys a dvd i got to tell him .. wide screen only.

i am hoping that HDTV proliferate a lot more so the movie studios will be forced to keep it wide sreen.

good lord oceans 11? i figured some kiddy cartoons and stuff but thats totally bogus. go exchange it for a widescreen, it doesn't matter if u've opened it if your exchanging for the same movie because of a mistake. ^((&%^%^ movie companys.

i accidently did that when i bought AI. didn't realize that i bought the full screen version until it started playing. what a wonderful waste of $20. :| whatever happened to the good ol' days when dvds were always in wide screen and full screen stayed on vhs?

I remember when many DVDs had both formats on one disk. Why did they ever stop doing that? That would have appeased everyone. One disk, widescreen or full frame, your choice.

Thankfully OCeans 11 widescreen is outselling the pan & scan version. There's a few smart ones out there!

I am going to buy the widescreen version today since my brother cant find the recepit..

I am buying that and the harry potter dvd today.

Widescreen

I really don't believe that it will ever go away. Maybe scaled back, but never gone. Especially with it becoming the new standard over the next 10 years.
