This is a newbie question as I am just beginning to buy dvds for my collection. I have a 16x9 television.
Example: There are at least two versions of The Matrix on dvd. Both are anamorphic. One is offered in a 2.35:1 aspect ratio, the other is in a 1.85:1 aspect ratio.
I know that the 1.85:1 is 16x9. Does this mean that the 1.85:1 ratio dvd will completely fill the screen?
Will the 2.35:1 ratio dvd end up with black bars on my 16x9 monitor?
Which is the better choice, and why?
Thanks in advance.
