Well, looking back on my collection, not all of them are full screen. Just some of the really good ones like the Lord of the Rings Trilogy. -_-

Based on the opinions and research that's presented in this thread, I'm going to start buying widescreen.

I won't be replacing the current full screen films that I have though. Sure, I'm missing out on some of the onscreen details, but all the important stuff is still visible.

Here's a side question: I've been looking at some TV series at Amazon and I noticed they don't have a widescreen specification. I assume that because they are TV shows that were designed for viewing on televisions, they are by default full screen and nothing is missing becuase that is the way they were originally filmed. Am I right?
