I hate 16:9 - GoFuckYourself.com

Sux really, in order to get a decent vertical size (compared to 32" 4:3 CRT) you need to buy at least 50" Plasma/LCD 16:9

Bah!

Naughty Pyne · 10-28-2005, 01:35 PM

Yes, but all movies you see in the theater were in widescreen. This maintains the aspect ratio so you are able to see the director dream. I love the format and anything I purchase in the future will be widescreen for sure.

16:9 rules.

digga · 10-28-2005, 01:42 PM

yea no doubt. my 30 LG widescreen kicks serious ass.

16:9 rules for movies, but sucks for porn.

LazyBastard · 10-28-2005, 01:48 PM

Stop being a cheap bastard and buy a widescreen display.

With more people shooting HD and the price of cameras coming down, porn is catching up with the motion-picture studios really fast. Just wait till the HD video players hit the streets after the CES. 16:9 will be the new standard.

People are verticle so most shots of people are better in 4:3. With all these cheap HDV cams flooding the market you will see tons of poorly framed and out of focus shots.

The problem is that everything is going widescreen so if you shoot your content on 4:3 then most people will still watch it "stretched" to fill their widescreen TV. So models end up looking fat and distorted.

So what you can do is shoot widescreen but frame for 4:3. You can just cut the 4:3 out of your footage for your web versions while you make a widescreen version for DVD. This is what is done in mainstream all the time.

Ya I just love it when the companies take my 16:9 and chop off the sides and use stupid Pan and Scan shit too. I mean whats better than only seeing 66% of the movie???? I hate watching the movie as it was meant to be seen too.

If your widescreen TV cost more than $500 it should be able to recognize the signal coming through and adjust properly. At least thats what my Pioneer does.

if you have a good TV there is no problem with that format...but if you only have a 14'' tv that can be a really big pain in the ass...

Yes, I realize this but most people have their widescreen TV's set to "fill".

I've got a 63" Widescreen Pioneer and 16:9 rocks on it

Mako · 10-28-2005, 02:05 PM

16:9 rules. Can't stand old 1950s 4:3 now.

Get a bigger TV. I recommend 60"+.

AmateurFlix · 10-28-2005, 02:07 PM

I hate the shortscreen format

SykkBoy · 10-28-2005, 02:27 PM

I love 16:9 and it rocked on the 50 inch widescreen Toshiba, but sadly, it was a casualty of the divorce...the brightside is I can now go even bigger....
