That's a dead choice anymore. Movies are only released in their original aspect ratio on Blu Ray (with exceptions, such as Batman: Mask of the Phantasm, because it was intended to be a Made for Video, but had to be reformatted once WB decided to release it in theaters instead) and they don't put out new DVDs with full screen versions anymore. Since most people have moved on from tube TVs, full screen is no longer a relevant option. We no longer destroy the picture by lopping off 25 to 50% of the picture and using cheap "Pan & Scan" techniques. Instead, we use Auto Motion Plus.
