Why not all 3 with OAR of 2.35:1 Anamorphic?
www.deepdiscountdvd.com "Where Eagles Dare" and "Soylent Green" are 2.35:1 anamorphic wide screen. "The Omega Man" AR is below from their website, IMHO such a shame.

I think DDD has information for the cancelled release that was to come out, 3 years ago or so. As I recall, it was first to be released P&S in 1999 and that was cancelled. Then it was to be released in early 2000 with WS & P&S and a featurette and that was cancelled/postponed. According to Amazon the 8/2003 release now has the following features:
DVD Features: Theatrical trailer(s) Introduction by screenwriter Joyce H. Carrington, Paul Koslo ("Dutch"), and Eric Laneuville ("Richie") "The Last Man Alive: The Omega Man" "Charlton Heston: Science Fiction Legend" Widescreen anamorphic format |
They sure as hell BETTER BE releasing a 16x9 transfer. This is utter crap if they don't at this point in time. I can understand
studios using old, rehashed, LD transfers when DVD was in its infancy, but now that 16x9 televisions are taking off there's simply no excuse. I WILL NOT BUY a disc unless it's anamorphically enhanced unless it was originally shot for a 4x3 aspect ratio. |
what was the last title Warner Bros. released that was letterbox but not anamorphic 16x9?

Despite rampant misuse of the term on the internet, "Letterbox" does not mean the same thing as "Non-Anamorphic".
All "letterboxed" means is that, when viewed on a 4:3 television, the film will be presented with black bars. This has no bearing on whether the disc is anamorphically enhanced or not. All anamorphic discs are also letterboxed. |
