Opinions Needed On R2 Japan Pending Purchases

I am looking to ordera few DVDS from Amazon Japan with a discount (AMZNGCRAFMAY - Y500 off Y1000 - expires 30/05/03 new accounts only). I need opinions on those who have/had these discs.. if they are in fact Anamorphic or just widescreen. I am looking for Anamorphic only.

Of course, there is the list that I run here on the site, but I am sure there are plenty that may not have been confirmed completley.

Here are the ones I am looking to order:

Vegas Vacation
Showgirls (non DTS)
California Man (Encino Man)
Scream 3 DTS
Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me DTS

Thanks in advance for any help.

I've got the Austin Powers (part of the trilogy box set they put out) and it's anamorphic.
I'm not 100% sure but I seem to remember looking at Encino Man and seeing it was "16x9 Letterbox". Disney/BV tends to do that a lot with their catalogue titles here.
