Question about Pi: Faith in Chaos video transfer
I've yet to pick this up due to it not being anamorphic but given the source material would it benefit from an anamorphic transfer?
Then again with the way everything eventually gets a re-release perhaps it is best to wait if I'm in no hurry.

Since it's got a 1.66:1 aspect ratio, they'd have to either crop it vertically or pad the edges horizontally to make it anamorphic. It's doable, but like you said the source material probably limits how much you'd gain from it. The current DVD isn't bad feature-wise, which also makes an SE re-release less likely.
Considering you can pick up the Pi/Requiem for a Dream 2-pack for under $10, I'd say just pull the trigger and get it now. You won't be out a whole lot if they do end up re-releasing it.
