This is how retarded you are. The left is full screen because its cut off to fit the standard 4:3 television screen that was popular before the 2000s. The right is the actual film, aka wide screen or letterbox, which may have black bars on a 4:3 set but on a widescreen television becomes fullscreen.
>>
>>64662376
Wow bro your fake image sure showed me! Go fuck yourself you widescreen shill. There's a reason cinema went to shit around 2007 and that's because of garbage like Bluray phasing out the beauty and sophistication of fullscreen film.

No, CRT is analogue, no amount of pixels will ever reach the fidelity of CRT.
>>
>>64662880
Don't forget that TBS started speeding up reruns of older shows like Seinfeld at around 8% to make room for more ads.

CRT is just so cozy, and it fits the proportions of the room. I'll keep it until it breaks.

I still keep one for my pre-seventh gen games but I can't imagine actually watching movies and TV shows on one anymore.

>4:3 letterbox on wide screen leaves thick black bars on sides
Fuck's sake, what screen were they formatting it to fit?
>>
4:3 is the patrician aspect ratio.

Reminder that movies invented the widescreen because they feared TV would annihilate their bussiness and needed something "unique" to bring people in.
>>
>>64664070
Or rather, television forced them to improve.

What's weird is now that everyone is mostly on 16:9 displays channels are cropping 2.35:1 films to 16:9 now.
