Aluminum? Are you sure of that? I thought they were made of some kind of plastic. Surely AL wouldn't be opaque to the lasers. I guess you are putting us on, anyway. Sheesh.

Having read through a whole lot of the linked threads that talked about boiling DVD's to restore playability, I think I'm going to give that a shot. If that doesn't work, I guess I'll try Hollywood...

There were a couple of things about this seller that I should have taken as red flags:

1. He was selling a LOT of DVD's. He was seriously a volume seller.

2. Every single disk was listed as...

Used DVD has hundreds of tiny scratches in a regular pattern. Repairable?

This is the last time I buy from a seller who's evidently dealing in rental disks. I'm convinced that the risk is just not worth it. I've gotten some OK disks, but the clunkers are disappointing. I...

OK, thanks. What threw me off was the fact that DVD Profiler showed this "release" as anamorphic. Somehow they got the wrong information on that score. I think you are totally right in what you say,...

It's more than about the money. There's a couple of questions on the table:

1. Is this particular disk (Raising Arizona, April 2006 release, UPC 024543044192) anamorphic or not (and does it have...

Possibly it is not anamorphic, although I find it hard to understand why they would put out a new release (some 7 years after the initial release) in April 2006 that is not anamorphic. There doesn't...

Yes, my two sided disk has a plastic slip-cover. I don't know that it's a great thing to have. However, I will hang onto the insert as suggested by Drexl. It's actually pretty cool.
