Who cares? You have to buy the narrowscreen version of the film to
find out! I'm not willing to do this, and apparently, neither are you.

No you don't...

I got the widescreen version from Walmart with the extra disc. It has
three trailers for the movie (which I'm glad to have and should've been
included on the DVD proper) and a featurette "Anatomy of A Virtual
Scene" which I haven't watched yet.

I stand corrected. I went to the Wal-Fart just a mile from me and they
had about 100 narrrowscreen copies, all with the bonus disc sticker on
them. They had about 20 widescreen copies, and none had the same
sticker. So, I went the next closest Wal-Fart about 5 miles away.
They had the roughly the same ratio and numbers of narrowscreen copies
to widescreen copies. Out of the 20 or so widescreen copies, exactly
TWO had the bonus disc sticker on them. Naturally, I picked one of
those two.

Thanks for the heads up.

So, if you have a thing against Wal-Mart, why do you shop there?

The Rogers Video that I use has both the fullframe and widescreen versions
for rent (single disk for the widescreen, not sure about the other).
But, they are selling the fullscreen version only

A trip to BestBuy this afternoon should help ...

Typically, I don't, because they mostly stock narrowscreen versions of
DVDs. However, if they are the only store that is offering value-added
material (the bonus DVD) *AND* they have a widescreen copy available
*WITH* this bonus DVD, then I'll gladly hold my nose and buy an
occasional DVD from them. Make sense now?

No problem I think my Walmart puts out half and half fullscreen and
widescreen. But the widescreen sells faster and although I am always
able to get the widescreen version I sometimes have to look a bit.
