[QUOTE]Originally posted by Peregrinus: [QB] Proteus... The fullscreen version actually shows more of the image than the widescreen version. The 4:3 aspect ratio was the original motion picture film ratio, and indeed, movie screens pretty much dictated the ratio of the first television screens, which we still use today. In an attempt to snag viewers back from TV, the biggest movie studios started coming up with wider images to give a more engrossing movie-viewing experience, such as Cinemascope, Panavision, and so on. BTTF was filmed in 4:3, and then cropped top and bottom to fit anamorphic movie screens. When you watch the fullscreen version, they just use the uncropped version. The so-called "widescreen" versions of BTTF add nothing to the sides, and just crop the top and bottom as with the theatrical film release. --Jonah [/QB][/QUOTE]
