Yeah, it's the charm of the old stuff. Some like their old records, some still like to insert floppy disks in their Commodore. It has a certain feeling of the "good old simple days".
Re: Burbs commercial for the videocassette release Yeah. I sent my video to Yellow tangerine years ago when I got the DVD. But it was the English 'cut' version, on account of the Video Nasty Act
Re: Burbs commercial for the videocassette release Yeah, the Video Recording Act 1984 - a moral panic concerned with the video nasties. All of a sudden, films that only 18 year olds could see at the cinema were suddenly available in the home...where children could see them...like now really.

I agree completely. This is so far the only movie that I've ever seen on DVD where it just didn't feel quite "right" being in widescreen. Obviously, I prefer this aspect ratio overall, I guess it's probably just a subconscious thing from having damn near worn out my VHS copy all those years ago.
