Whoops. Sony releases another Digital Dud.

"Regardless of the film content (All the Pretty Horses is quite good, but I refuse to watch Geronimo Pan&Scanned, so I've yet to see it)...Sony has done it again.
As usual, they recycle a release that used to contain both Wide and Fullscreen options and put it out--under the SAME UPC--without widescreen, eliminating any interest I have in their product.
But this time, oh boy, this time, the packaging states "2.35:1 Anamorphic Widescreen" under Geronimo. TWICE. On the back of the slipbox the two discs come in, AND on the back of the slimcase Geronimo itself is packaged in. Despite that, it's a re-formatted P&S pile of junk.
So hey, double trouble!
A mix of a bad DVD-authoring choice AND false advertising! Well done Sony Home Entertainment!"

"Agree wholeheartedly with reviewer on misrepresentation of aspect ratio by Sony on dvd Geronimo:An American Legend as part of the double feature ALL THE PRETTY HORSES and GERONIMO. I checked out the description in INDB and several internet retailers before I decided to purchase. I was very ticked off at Sony for their deceptive advertising and will contact Sony directly. Amazon cannot be expected to inspect each dvd to see if it is in aspect ratio stated on dvd box and literature,but they have the clout to reprehend Sony in this matter."
