No OAR No sell!
So what you guys are saying is that MGM has released nearly all their DVD product in OAR, and because a couple of 'Full Frame's' have slipped thru the net they are now 'evil', 'the antichrist', and 'lets not buy MGM dvds from now on'?Who's saying they're "evil"?
It's a simple matter...regardless of the reason, we don't want non-OAR DVD transfers.
If they don't have an OAR transfer, then don't release it on DVD until they do.
If they do have an OAR transfer, then use it.
Can I add (repeat) that 1.66:1 titles should be 16x9 encoded and *not* 4x3 letterboxed? Folks with 16x9 displays can't watch Babette's Feast without cutting off subtitles, heads, or with black bars around all 4 sides of the picture on their 16x9 HDTV.

No wonder so few of my DVDs are from MGM!!Funny; I'm in almost the opposite boat. I have several of MGM's SEs, but I must admit to having no interest in most of the films that they've released in MARs.
I personally think they'll do better again!Does that mean maybee when HD-DVD comes around years from now I might get to see Real Men the way it was meant to be sean in it's OAR?
Seriously though if they do better in the future that's great but i'm still dissapointed now.
