About time they were, like smoking ,banned.

My gods, you talk some poop. All other issues aside, watch a very
cinematic
film in 16:9,
Ok, Titanic. ?? Alright with you?
On a wide screen in a movie theatre, *Tremendous*.
On a 32" "Widescreen" telly. Pathetic.
then in 4:3.....now tell me if you could really ever go back -
or at least explain the benefits for us to ditch our WS TV's.
I'd sooner watch the news with the newsreader the right shape.
Why would the newsreader be the wrong shape, unless you are not using the TV
properly.
I've posted on here 5 or 6 years ago, when H.P. was in his prime, and
folks rounded on me and said all tv programs could be displayed with
the correct aspect ratio on all modern sets. However I walked through
a TV store on Friday and all widescreen TV's on display were still
showing short fat people.
So they are using the sets incorrectly.
I walked through my living room today and
despite having a recent "Widescreen" TV and a recent SKY TV
installation SWMBO was watching an American film apparently about
people on another planet where gravity is about 2x what it is on earth
because they were all short fat people. I call them "Bellytubbies" .
So teach her to use the TV correctly. In fact if the TV had been set up
correctly it should automatically display the meterial in the correct
manner.
The fact is, you've had it in for widescreen TV from the get-go, and
you're
welcome to the opinion that *you* prefer (for whatever inane reasons) 4:3,
but now you're just getting desperate. "A major contributor to global
warming"?
It wasn't H.P. that invented that, it might have been eco nutters, but
it's not his fault.
And for the record my 32 "Widescreen" TV displays the news with a
correct aspect ratio, but only if I accept a picture size smaller than
my parents TV displayed over 40 years ago.
Then you didn't by a widescreen TV, you bought a shortheight TV.
