I can remember a few months ago when MGM made a chat appearence on this forum, and I especially remember the harsh criticism they received in the following days. Frankly, it was a bit brutal at times. But, I think some of us sensed they were listening, reading and learning what the market wanted. And best of all, I think we sensed they were going to respond. I was really sure they were paying attention when they turned the volume down on the opening logo as many of us requested.
I'm happy to say that I've been pleasently surprised at the quantity of anamorphic widescreen titles that have been released. I've now purchased a number of MGM titles I hadn't orginally planned on buying, but I ran into them on the racks or in reviews and they were indeed anamorphic. And decent anamorphic treatment of older titles too.
Today, Bill Hunt comments in Digital Bits on the good job MGM is doing getting out titles in both anamorphic and P&S formats on the same disc. He comments on both the special editions and standard releases being well done. I have to agree.
Thanks MGM. You deserve success.
