Please be in OAR, please. Hopefully, this one is too important to crop, and you certainly cannot make that "protected for widescreen" claim here.

I would hope the absence of the word "widescreen" from the press release, along with how WB respected OAR for Batman and their pre-widescreen animation, would be a clue, but I really don't know, especially on the heels of Fox's release of The X-Files, and Universal's release of Battlestar Galactica. It seems to me that most distributors have decided that pre-1970s TV should remain OAR on BD, but things obviously get f***ed with from the late 1970s onwards, and the miniseries nature may create a false impression that 1.78:1 is "okay". Personally, I wish WB would have simply listed the aspect ratio in the press release, and not sent me into a state of nausea.

Great news. Been waiting for this for a long time.
I do hope they will follow this release with "The Next Generations" and "The Gift" in OAR on Blu-Ray. For some reason the DVD release of "The Gift" was savagely cropped to 16:9. I hope they have the good sense to restore it to it's original 4:3 format if it gets a BD release. |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roots_..._miniseries%29 which will be airing on A&E, The History Channel and Lifetime simultaneously the week before the BD comes out. I don't think it's any sign that the other titles have a chance of making it to BD, sadly. |

I remember when Roots originally aired. I was in high school and much discussion went on in the classroom. My school was about 70 % African-American and some of those discussions got pretty heated.
A few years ago I purchased the DVD with great expectation, but I found it to be really, REALLY dated. The script and the acting really had a lot to be desired (IMO) I did not even finish watching it. |
