You make the call, personally when I watch a movie,
its a production. All shades are closed, set the correct setting on the tuner (depedning on the type of movie) gotta wait till dark so there is no glare
and nothing can be in the way of the screen I dont care how small it is, a fly sleeping on the corner "NO" that means I can't see somethig.

Full screen NO, that means some of the picture has been removed, completely unacceptable!

Yes, I am a freak, but lemme hear your preference.

I prefer widescreen, you see more of the movie, and it has that theater feel to it.

My sister and mother whine about wide screen "because it has black edges on the top and bottom". I told them you're missing allot of the movie with fullscreen, but they are to stubborn to believe me.

I love widescreen movies and its definitely the preferred way to go. Even on small screens. But I think having high quality sound is just as key. Nothing ruins a movie faster than crackling sound.

Wide Screen, with the shades down and the 5.1 up...it reminds me of a movie, that is the way TV was meant to be watched!!!

You're missing about 30% of the movie if you go fullscreen!
it's only things on the side, but I like it!

Wide screen, I don't wanna miss that bit at the edge either. I'd rather see it that way it was meant to be :D
