Default I just change one setting and now i love my PS3 even more!

I was going through my BD/DVD settings and i realized that my DVD upscaler section says Normal, so i changed it to Full Screen and now Justice League looks glorious and looks like how it was originally intended to be views

Just as a sidenote, the Full Screen scalar is the one that destroys Original Aspect Ratio.

If you care for that sort of thing. It's your personal taste on the matter, just want to make sure it gets mentioned though .

It's not going to be cut off. It's going to be streched to fit the aspect ratio of that the PS3 thinks you have.

So for a 4:3 title [like most television shows] is going to get streched horizontally to fill the rest of the space.

Thank you so much, people dont understand that, people thought i was talking about "stretch O vision", but no one thought maybe it was broadcasted in 4:3 but originally produced in 16:9 and just squeezed to 4:3 (think about it like that ), I personally dont see it stretched out, it looks awesome and i couldnt be happier

Unfortunately, you've just demonstrated that you really don't understand the things you're discussing.

"Normal" will be the correct upscaling setting 99% of the time. It preserves the original aspect ratio of 4:3 DVDs by properly pillarboxing them.

"Full Screen" stretches 4:3 DVDs out across the entire 16:9 frame of your HDTV, resulting in an image that not only has the wrong aspect ratio, but the wrong proportions as well.

Anamorphically enhanced widescreen DVDs are unaffected by the "Normal" or "Full Screen" settings and will be displayed correctly either way.
