Just to let you know...
I don't think Firestarter is that great a movie but it has a good deal of sentimental value for me... since Image's DVD is almost unwatchable on a widescreen display, I've been looking forward to a new anamorphic version.
Deep Discount DVD has the original Firestarter listed (as part of the "franchise" 2-pack with the sequel) as a 1.33:1 full frame release. Some other sites list only 1.85:1 as the aspect ratio for the set (which is the ratio for the original DVD).
Anyway, Universal says the Firestarter DVD is 2.35:1 anamorphic. I'm trusting this, and wanted to post it here in case you'd be scared to order it after reading what the online stores have about it.
