New Resources for Widescreen Information!
01/31/2005
I recently discovered that several of the links on our what is widescreen page no longer work. I have replaced the dead links with some new resources. Added are Hong Kong Fanatics Intro to Widescreen, Why Widescreen? @ DVDAnswers.com and the Widescreen Information Page at twowiresthin.com
The pages removed include the Atombrain Guide to Letterboxing, and Richard Sliwa’s Harry Potter DVD comparison pages.

I have updated this list of full screen only re-issues of DVDs that Columbia/Tri-Star has previously released in both widescreen and full screen formats. More of these titles continue to be released, and as I find out about them, I will post them. This list will also be linked to from the OAR Watchdog from now on.
