Rating: - Aspect Ratio problems (It's NOT cropped though)
This "movie" was made in HD, and actually aired in HD, but what does Paramount give us...Letterboxed Full Screen!!! I want to personally find the person who encoded / authored this DVD and expel them from life! To that person: If you don't know your aspect ratios and what ANAMORPHIC widescreen is by now, you have no business authoring DVDs. Go back to working at McDonald's or join the Army!!!
For the people who don't author DVDs or work in video...basically this disc is giving you two thirds the resoultion you should get if it was made properly. If you have a standard definition TV with 4:3 aspect ratio, you most likely won't notice anything. If you have a 16:9 aspect ratio TV (standard definition OR high definition) this disc will look like poop.
Great little mini movie though!!!
Rating: - South Park never disappoints
Other than the crappy interlacing :( this was worth a buy. An instant classic to have in your shelf.
Rating: - Imaginationland
Wow. This was great. Can the South Park boys get any more creative or more funny? I think not.
Rating: - CROPPED to Widescreen,
The Imaginationland feature is CROPPED TO WIDESCREEN even though the dvd says full screen. That is false advertising. South Park is a 4:3 show and should be presented in its original aspect ratio. Tilt and Scan is just as bad as Pan & Scan. Worse, according to another review, the disc isn't even animorphic which makes it even more pointless. Completely inexcusable! At least the non-animorphic unaltered Star Wars movies were in their correct aspect ratio.
Obviously the hacks who worked on the disc don't understand the reason and concept of letterboxing, they probably just want to add the black bars to give it that "movie look."
The episodes were overall great and the commentary is really funny and interesting. But as someone who wanted the dvd so I could pause and look for all the characters, it's so frustrating that I can't even see the whole picture.
Rating: - Great "movie" but bad release?
i don't wanna go out and buy this unless it's not on the season 11 box set....and i'm hoping it is
