Desperado in HBO-HD...not OAR, but still SMOKIN! (1 Viewer)

What a great movie! Great sound, great action, great banditos, lots of blood, Tarantino, style, music, SALMA , Guitarristas, etc., etc., etc. My sub got quite a workout.

First time I've seen that movie....can't believe I never caught it before. It was GREAT!

The HD transfer was very smooth and sharp at the same time. I am fairly certain it was NOT OAR, but it wasn't distracting (probably since I had not seen the movie before).

Looking forward to when HBO runs OAR with 5.1 digital surround, but til then, I'm pretty happy!

The OAR was 1.85:1 so it probably was in OAR so long as it filled up the 16x9 screen.

Well that just makes it even better.
