    Ya Stegasaurus, but you can't be smart if you do drugs (see "Back to JP Land"). Besides, if you're so smart why do you swear and act like you're not smart at all? If you're bright, you don't want to do that. And trust me dude, that is not the way to make a good impression.

    Yeah, JP3 DVD commercials have hit the air! I saw one last night, must've been either Weakest Link or TPM...

    Anyway, after seeing PotA, The Grinch, and Episode 1 on DVD during my Thanksgiving break- I am SO ready for this JP 4 Disc Set opportunity!

    I can see why someone would want the widescreen DVD of a movie origanally in the 2.35 : 1 aspect ratio, but JP/// is in the 1.85:1 aspect ratio. It's not quite as wide. In my opinion, because you don't lose as much, I would go for the fullscreen JP/// DVD, and not have those bars.

    P.S. Whoa! I just saw a JP/// DVD commercial. Looks pretty cool!

    Anyone who thinks I'm an idiot(Probably everyone) Go to page 56 on the reviews and you'll see that whenever I go to this site I pretend to be a swearing crackhead that hates fags I mean gays and that I am actually smart!

    Jerm: True, you can see a bit more on the top and bottom in full screen discs, but this is part of the movie image that the director never intended for you to see in the first place.. the parts that are chopped off to fit the full screen ARE parts the director intended for you to see: Most directors shoot the film with the wide-screen movie-theater screen in mind, and this is exactly what you get when you buy a wide-screen DVD.

    Eventually, say 10 years or so, all our TV's will be widescreen, so this will be a moot point anyway.

    Thanks Trespasser, I see what you're saying. But many people don't know that with fullscreen formats you see more on the top and bottom. I can try to prove it, but it will only work for people who either have the Jurassic Park fullscreen DVD, or Jurassic Park on VHS and DVD. Watch the JP trailer on the DVD. It's in widescreen. Pinpoint a spot in the movie and try to remember exactly what it looked like in widescreen. Then watch the same point in your fullscreen version of JP. You'll see that you lose a little on the sides, but gain a little on the top and bottom. Did anyone notice this?

    "i tought dvds only came in wide screen",

    That is what many people think, but they are wrong, DVD's come in both widescreen and fullscreen, only a few come in one format only,

    in full screen editions, they cut off the sides so that it fits in the regular tv, but in the widescreen, the sides are still there, but you see it smaller obviously because it's from further away...

    Like, ok here's widescreen:
    [_____]
    and fullscreen would be (let's say it's the same picture)
    [_(_)_] The fullscreen part is just what's in the parentheses... Well i'm sure this was pretty much no help at all but I tried :-D

    You see more of the picture on Widescreen, you see what you saw at the theatre.

    Uh... I know this is kind of random, but I would really appreicate it if someone could answer this question for me. Why does everybody like widescreen movies more than fullscreen ones? Isn't it annoying having those black bars at the top and bottom of the screen? I've heard some people say they like widescreen because you get to see more on the sides, but you also get just as much, if not more on the top and bottom with fullscreen. Anyway, I've been debating with myself which version of JP/// to get on DVD and have come to no conclusion.

    Let the fan fiction involving babies and dinos begin.

    It really makes the mind wonder.

    The coolest title would've been <i>Jurassic Park : Edge Of Chaos</i>

    Wow! Jurassic Park: Evolution would have been a great name. I can't wait to see what the logo would have looked like. But I can't imagine what the logo would have looked like with the baby skeleton. That sounds a bit weird. Glad they didn't do it.
