PASS.

Widescreen only for me.

I need to get the movie Transporter movie out again and watch it.

Behind Enemy Lines we just watched again last Saturday evening. Really, a pretty good movie with great pictures of a fighter jet and an aircraft carrier. :T

[Patt]

Shane, ....what's the difference between picture quality of widescreen and full/widescreen?

[Shane Martin]

Full is FULLSCREEN Aspect Ratio. Meaning 1.33 which is cropped and not the OAR. You lose TONS of information on screen as directors of this day and age especially all of these movies don't use that aspect ratio.

There is no "Full/Widescreen".

Here is my opinion on these titles FWIW:

Fight Club: great movie. A bit misunderstood though

Behind Enemy Lines: Tolerable but not a great movie one bit.

Transporter: Great movie. Fun to watch. Pretty corny though.

Kiss of the Dragon: weak effort by Jet Li. Decent action.

Big Trouble in Little China: Great movie. Easily a must purchase unlike the others.

To be honest, Big Trouble and Fight Club already have top shelf SE's out that any fan of those should buy.

[Patt]

I like widescreen the best.
Even though the picture is smaller, it captures more of what there is to see.

Corny is a pretty good description of Trensporter....when was the las time you saw a car fly... :rofl:
