Mothra just flying through wrecking everything is so good, I don't know if it's still the case but it & a bunch of related stuff used to be on Crackle (the streaming service every1 ignores) for free.

Hey, if you have some Crackle recommendations, feel free but it sucks rear end!

No it's definitely 95% garbage, but the ads used to error out and auto skip on the Xbox 360 app so that was sick.

well why not posted:

One of the first widescreen DVDs we watched when I was a kid was 'The Man Who Sued God'. My dad insisted on using the player's zooming feature to remove the black bars. There was a fairly long shot where the lead character was leaning in a doorway at the edge of frame. We were treated to a minute long shot of an empty street.

This stuff is confusing and I'm glad we're out of the woods with almost everything being widescreen all the time. 4:3 is basically over, but I'm sure there's people watching old TV shows stretched horizontally to avoid bars.

There's the reverse problem now though, stuff like Seinfeld and Malcolm in the Middle airing in wide-screen despite it being designed for a different ratio.

I assume you seen the Malcolm in the Middle HD with booms in the shot and Darkside Dewey and the like.

Haha yeah, I remember it took me a beat to notice what was wrong with the Dewey one. Real horror
