5.0 out of 5 stars It doesn't get any better!, January 25, 2001
By 
This review is from: The Ultimate Widescreen DVD Movie Guide (Paperback)
The Ultimate Widescreen DVD Movie Guide is a must for everyone who loves to watch DVD. Widescreen Review has done a wonderful job to create an informative, technically brilliant and easy to read guide for every owner of a DVD-player. The 555 pages provides you with every data you can imagine: DVD reviews (technical data, a short story line, picture and sound rating), facts and inside looks on the DVD industry, a DVD-player buyer's guide, a DVD-ROM review section, complete listings of DTS- and THX-DVDs and a complete set of DVDs FAQs. For everyone new to this hobby it's great to get an explanation on the various aspect ratios movies do have. It simplifys things a lot just to open the magazine and show someone the facts when explaining why it's better to have a 16:9 TV set instead of a 4:3 or why on a normal TV the black bars are good things and not bad ones. Another interesting section is the 70mm movie list which shows every movie made in this format from 1929 until today. Complete with studio, soundtrack, original photography format and notes. Don't we movie buffs love things like this. The DVD FAQs are interesting stuff for beginners and even "experts" can learn a thing or two. All in all the issue, which is thicker than some telephone books I know of, is worth every penny spent. I'm really looking forward to get my hands on the next issue 2002. Congratulations to the staff for doing an excellent job.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can't Live Without It, January 30, 2001
By 
This review is from: The Ultimate Widescreen DVD Movie Guide (Paperback)
If you're really into home theatre or are just getting started collecting DVDs, you have got to have this book! It lists almost 2,000 movies with a story and a picture of the DVD box, but best of all, it gives professional reviews of the picture and sound quality so you know which movies will show off best on your home theatre equipment. It also tells you about all the extra features that DVDs come with. There are articles about DVD software, reviews of DVD players, articles about how movies are made and a lot of other awesome stuff like DVD-ROM and the difference between widescreen and pan-and-scan movies.

By A Customer
This review is from: The Ultimate Widescreen DVD Movie Guide (Paperback)
The Ultimate Widescreen DVD Movie Guide is not just a guide...it is a complete reference for all that is widescreen DVD. There is nothing on the market that can compare to the extensive compilation that Widescreen Review has put together here. From a comparison of DVD players on the market to thousands of DVD reviews, this is definitely the guide for DVD enthusiasts and newcomers.
