Grrrr - mislabeled non-anamorphic DVDs
 
Does anyone know when Touchstone actually began making their DVDs anamorphic? I just picked up a used copy of "The Color of Money", which is labeled "Enhanced for 16x9 TVs" but is not. However, the more recent (2003) "25th Hour" which I also got tonight IS anamorphic.

Also, what other studios which consistently mislabel their DVDs? I know some early WB releases (2010) were mislabeled, as is my copy of "A Bronx Tale" from HBO home video.

Yeah, this is extremely annoying. WB's "The Ninth Configuration" is mislabeled as anamorphic.

I was *this* to buying The Color of Money until I heard that it was non-anamorphic. Bummed me out.

Well, WB's "Tango & Cash" is listed on DVDEmpire as anamorphic (which is usually a good source), but when I got it, it isn't labeled as anamorphic, and sure enough, it isn't. I know, not quite the same thing, but the fact that DVDEmpire has it listed as anamorphic was at the very least confusing.

I traded away my MGM 2010 DVD with the cool cover and the 8 page booklet to get the WB DVD because I thought it was anamorphic. :grunt:
