In Reply to: Harry Potter...is fullscreen really superior to the widescreen DVD? posted by cfraser on May 27, 2002 at 14:34:19:
If you have a widescreen HDTV, then it's a moot point because you'll want the full bredth of the film as originally presentation. Now admittedly, in it's WS aspect ratio Harry Potter isn't going to be as visually spectacular as it was on a theater screen due to the reduced size, especially when it comes to some of the more subtle visual effects such as the various paintings which come to life. However, it's still the same well constructed movie regardless of whether Chris Columbus composed the shots with 4:3 academy or WS formats in mind and indeed some of the effects shots with conrasting perspectives are bound to be more impressive in WS.AuPh
