(Crash Override @ May 27 2013,09:27)QUOTEHas anyone compared the new Remaster DVDs to the original 2004 DVDs?The 2004 ones are much sharper because they have the original aspect ratio.The new ones are very noticeably stretched vertically to make them a taller 4:3 ratio, which seems to have destroyed a lot of the detail.I only noticed this when I compared some automatic screencaptures that I took with Xilisoft.I should probably upload these (when I'm not at work) to illustrate my point.I bought the French DVDs, which I understand are very good quality.At the time, I had no time to actually watch them so they stayed in their wrapping.I felt like comparing that footage but I can't seem to find the discs now I figure, they'll turn up.I don't know. I have yet to get the copies.Anyhow, with the French DVDs-you don't see as much there either. But when you get down to it, you don't lose much-same goes with the English prints (even though there you actually see a little more on the right edge than in the Japanese).I still have yet to see if they're the same (or similar) as the French remastered DVD's
