You know, until the events of a few weeks ago (the great Desertion of US by the Studios), I would have said a hearty YES. At the time of this writing, I think I actually have THREE titles that aren't OAR and they are:
Christmas Vacation
Happy Gilmore
Full Metal Jacket
Two of them I bought and one of the two is presented in the Aspect Ratio of Choice by the Director of the film (at least that's what I've been told), and I'm not sure how I came into posession of the other one. Is this justification? I'm not sure, but that's the story.
Now, that being said...I WILL NEVER AGAIN BUY ANOTHER MOVIE THAT IS NOT PRESENTED IN IT'S ORIGINAL ASPECT RATIO! Regardless of the situation! If it's a movie that I truly want to see, I'll wait for it on one of the Premium Movie channels, where Pan and Scan Rules!

Dave, Amen man! Most people on this board take things way too seriously. I am surprised that the administrators didn't delete your post because it didn't suit them. They are big fans of censorship here, which really really sucks. It seems that only the rabid petitioners have opinions that matter.
I have had my share of problems with some of the policys on this board in the past, but Censorship is not what happens here. As I'm sure you know, this is a Pro OAR board AND it's privately owned! Ron and Parker decide what goes on here and it's their pond.
