I would suggest that you refund your money and just wait for the real 2 disc edition... baka matagalan pa yan.

As long as it is not listed as widescreen, good luck explaining it to the sales clerk who might have no idea what you are talking about... but you may try, why not?

One thing about a Bug's life... Even in Fullscreen, you get the most of the picture, it is one of the few picture that Pixar rerender the whole picture for both widescreen and fullscreen. If I were you I keep it...

"For those turned off by pan-and-scan jobs (like me), the 1.33:1 version isn’t as bad as you might presume. Instead of cropping the original ratio to fit square TVs, Pixar has reframed most of the shots the make sure the viewer doesn’t lose too much visual information. This is a good idea, but I still prefer the original ratio, as I suspect most fans of the movie would."

Got it replaced yesterday by T1 SE. Its a 2 disc with a nice booklet inside.

The saleslady was encouraging me not to return the item, according to her they havent had that for a long time. She has a point but Im not really comfortable watching a full screen dvd on a widescreen tv.

Just curious, I've read that the Bug's Life single disc has both widescreen and fullscreen on the same DVD. I think I also read it on the back cover of the R3. Misprint nanaman?

Am also curious if there was ever a double disc R3 version of this title released locally?

TIA

yep its a misprint. I think they used the label for the double disc version (saving cost?)

. Thats why they have no reason not to replaced my copy.

Please be informed that the new discussions on the R3 release of The Little Mermaid have been separated from this thread and merged with the earlier thread on the same topic.

Thank you.

Dunno eh. I bought the two during Labor Day, so I thought it was just a one-day sale.
