I am so angry about this, I immediately cancelled my amazon.com order and bought the old LD instead. "Tilt & scan" is only going to get worse as more widescreen sets are sold. ETA for 16:9 Citizen Kane: 5 years.
I completely agree with Steve Schaffer about this. And, I think some of the "widescreen advocates" around these parts are partially to blame. "Wider is better," "Widescreen Now!" and other, assorted signatures/battle cries aren't really very sensible. Sometimes wider isn't better. All of these demands for "widescreen only" confuse J6Ps and studios alike, I feel. This is exactly why the term OAR is so useful, and should be used instead of "widescreen" in anyone's sig/petition/whatever.
