Does anyone know if the re-release of TPM in Full Frame also had visible EE? That would be a really mean trick if its transfer is actually better (except for being cropped to hell of course).
All I can say is I'm pissed off enough now when I rent or buy a new DVD and see the transfer marred by edge enhancement; when the time comes that I start buying HD-DVD's I'm going to be unbelievably upset if I see EE on those transfers. I've already had to re-purchase too many titles just for the EE-free transfer I should have had in the first place. (and in some cases, like Stargate, still haven't gotten) If the studios pull the same EE stunt with HD-DVD it will be completely unacceptable.
Is there any worldwide consortium devoted to the defeat of Edge Enhancement? There should be. It must be defeated completely before HD-DVD's are pressed.
p.s. If Artisan takes their 1080p transfer and adds Edge Enhancement to it for the first HD-DVD release of T2 who's going to help me take them out like Cybderdyne Systems? I pray they wouldn't do that just to make me buy it again later EE free. As good as I hear the T2 Extreme Edition (or ironically EE) looks, I don't think they could get away with it. It's more likely I suppose that they'd release it 720p or 1080i first and later release a 1080p version Here's hoping 1080p will be the(one)standard so they can't pull that one either.
