I was lucky enough to get my hands on a copy of the upcoming release and thought I'd share some of my thoughts. First, as many have reported this is, in fact, non-anamorphic widescreen. While watching this on a regular 4:3 tv will leave you with an incredible image, the image from my 16:9 plasma was stunning. Of course the image is stretched, I use 480p as my setting when watching this and the image fills the screen with no stretching. I do however lose a few inches from all sides. The audio is Dolby Surround. What I really like is the packaging. The case has a cardboard cover with the same art as underneath, but, it's got that metallic foil effect on some of the raised words which really makes it stand out. Inside you have a nice episode guide insert with the 3 ladys in their kick-ass poses. The case itself is clear with reverse art on the insert. Now, here's something I loved, in the case there are 2 flips that hold the 4 dvds. One on each side. I loved that because I'm tired of discs that lay overtop each other and end up getting scratched all to hell. All in all, I really think Warner has given us a damn fine release of this show. Some have been upset over the anamorphic issue, but, that's not enough to stop me. I suck at reveiws, as you've figured out by now, and thought some here may like to know what to expect of this release Tueday.
