It seems bizarre to me that...

...having fought against full screen butchery of widescreen movies to fit 4:3 TVs, we now must fight against clipping academy ratio films to make them faux wide-screen. Butchery is butchery.

Original aspect ratio please!! This is nuts!

I just don't see what the problem is with films grain. If the best source is flawed, so be it. I don't care for the plastic looking skin that results. However, as I said above, some films folks have criticized, like Zulu, I think look pretty darned good, especially compared to the poor DVD transfers.
