Distorted Olympia's. Warning schmoe alert
« on: February 23, 2017, 09:09:11 AM »
 I just ordered a multi pack Mr. Olympia starting with 1982 from Amazon on DVD.  I was so excited when I came yeah schmoe for sure.  I watched the 1982  on beta as a kid about 1000 times.   Imagine my surprise when I find out they stretched the damn video to make it widescreen aspect ratio.   Why the hell would they do this? They needed to put the gray bars on the side it makes everybody look huge.  Sux.

 I stand corrected I posted another thread I made earlier. Frank Zanes posing music was not run like hell from Pink Floyd's The Wall but it was Pink Floyd one of these days from the meddle album.

How old are you? Just change the settings on the TV to broadcast in 4:3

hey that worked. I've tried that before with discs and it just stayed in widescreen but got smaller and had gray bars on the side. But it seems to have worked with this. Thanks. I'd stay up late and watch it now but I have to get to bed. Long day at preschool tomorrow.
