IHW,
What if you have a choice of either widescreen or full screen. What would you choose?

I was fortunate to see a few Duke movies on the big screen at the drive-in, and wish I could have seen others like Island in the Sky, & Rio Bravo, I did get to see McLintock!, True Grit, Hellfighters, and The Green Berets. There may have been others, but those are the ones that stick out. Maybe we could get together and revive some of the old movies and get him back to the silver screen. I'd like to see the movies I mentioned above as well as The Searchers, and The Sands of Iwo Jima.

Alright, here it is. What do you prefer? Widescreen or Full Screen in your movie collection?
I prefer the widescreen collection because of the integrity of the movie on the silver screen. This gives you the sense of a complete view of what the director wanted in his picture. When The High & The Mighty and Island in the Sky came out in August, I was excited about getting these movies in my collection for the first time. I was disappointed when I received Island in the Sky and it was in Full frame.
That goes for the other two that came out last month, McLintock! and Hondo. Hondo being in full screen.
I try to get all my movies in widescreen. Maybe someday, I will get a wide screen TV and see the movies as they were intended to be shown.
What are your preferences?
Cheers B)
