I fixed Remo
 

40 pixels off the top, and 80 from the bottom, 2 pass VBR and whamo! Remo Williams in glorious widescreen. Take that, MGM!

You could've used electric tape too if you wanted.

Nice. :up:

By doing that, you're assuming that the MGM transfer has simply removed the mattes, rather than also zooming in at points.

The comparison at:

shows that (like most 'open matte' transfers), Remo is also zoomed in a bit, removing side information. Cropping off the top and bottom yourself is probably a good start, but it certain doesn't replace a legitimate widescreen transfer.

It's good enough for me. Besides, the amount of the picture that is cropped is negligible, and wouldn't be really visible due to overscan. I'm too lazy to import the other region version.

And I found Nemo. Beat that!!

I faxed Reno.

I fixed it- I watched the HBO-HD OAR version.:D
