Why Widescreen?

[mtrycrafts]

I was born in 1966. I obviously don't know jack about the history of the movie industry. Let's just say that movies have been filmed in widescreen in my lifetime - at least that would be a factual statement.

Thanks for furthering my education.

Hey Sheep,
Did you get a chance to read that article on thedigitalbits? It has screen captures that show exactly what alandamp was talking about. It's an interesting read.

Yes I did. The picture's do help you see the difference. If I could only afford a decent 16x9 TV and HDTV.....


Now, someone help me on my new problem (I seem to be good at generating issues... )

I have a Sony CRT that's 45" diag 16x9, so it's not like they don't make big CRT's. One of the best pictures I've ever seen.

You have a 45" CRT HDTV? What does that bad boy weigh?
