    I know I'll get flamed should anyone bother to read this, but seeing as how I have a newer decent 27" television, I want to see the whole screen filled, not just parts of it. Yeah, yeah, parts of each side are cut off, yadda yadda yadda. But at least the scenes don't look so... shrunk and stretched. So I get to make off with "only" buying the first DVD set of each LoTR movie, as only the first DVD sets come with a Pan & Scan version. I looked, but apparently the Extended versions are only in Widescreen. So New Line Cinema made it easy for me to choose which DVD set to go with. You wouldn't imagine how difficult it is to get a movie on DVD as Pan & Scan. I usually have to specially order them anymore, argh.
