Good to hear especially since they never released the movie in the proper aspect ratio for the DVD.

Finally a widescreen release of this movie! Not sure I'd want it for anything more than the nostalgia factor at this point though, and the pricing is quite steep.

Re: Matilda (1996) - 10/15

This had BETTER be in widescreen. I was so mad after getting shafted on the so-called special edition dvd from a few years ago. Though, since it was filmed Super35, you can fill a widescreen tv and see it in it's proper aspect ratio. But the special effect scenes are pan and scan. I can't wait for this blu-ray...

I always enjoyed this movie when I was a kid but I don't think it's something I'd ever watch myself again. Nice that it's finally going to get a proper release.

I would say there is no way it will cost that much for a catalog title. Nice to finally see a widescreen release, and it is still a great family movie.

I watched part of this on TV a few months ago and was surprised by how much I still enjoyed it. I may well pick this up when it drops in price a bit.

Is this going to be the uncut version?

They filmed a reunion featurette a month or two ago. Mara Wilson was posting pictures of the event on her Twitter feed.
