I'll rent it since I've never seen it. I guess the newer version is supposed to be better.

I don't mind the remake so much, but this has ANGIE DICKINSON!

Eh, I dunno about that. The third new one was pretty decent. By that time they more or less figured out that the caper itself was secondary to the charisma of the cast. The first new one felt kind of flat, though.

Is it really only 4:3? The LD is widescreen.

It's definitely not full screen. As per the review:

the Blu-ray release of 'Ocean's 11' is presented at an aspect ratio of 2.39:1

I had no idea this was in color. What happened to the B&W version?! Am I confusing it with another film? I swear I saw this in B&W on DVD.

Filmed in Technicolor! Maybe you saw a Black and Whiter version, or thinking of something else!
