>Rushmore is on HBO >I've never seen it before >decide to stream it >the movie starts >I enjoy the first four minutes >then the opening montage starts with Jason Schwartzman in all his clubs and stuff >something isn't right >why is he on the side of the frame, with half of his body cut off? >then it hits me >HBO is streaming a pan and scanned version of the movie for morons who insist the movie fill their entire screen
What the fuck? It's literally the current year, how are people okay with this? I'm thinking about canceling HBO now. This is unacceptable for any movie, but especially a Wes Anderson one, where it's super obvious that they're doing it. Does Showtime pull this bullshit?
Juan Powell
That is bizarre. I haven't encountered that in years.
Anthony Gutierrez
DUDE BILL MURRAY LMAO
Eli Davis
I was shocked too. I don't think Netflix and Amazon ever do that anymore. Hulu probably doesn't either, though I know they do show the stupid zoomed in widescreen versions of Seinfeld, but that's just what they were given by the studio, it's not their fault.
Nolan Collins
We should start a letter writing campaign. This is not acceptable.
Blake Gomez
Look at this shit.
Juan Reyes
How is this allowed?
Jack Allen

>HBO is streaming a pan and scanned version of the movie that's fucking disgusting
Xavier Baker
I couldn't even continue watching. I subscribe to HBO through Amazon, but I've now removed all HBO movies from my watchlist. Like I say, I might unsubscribe. $15 a month is way too much to pay for pan and scanned movies.
Cooper Walker
Offensive
Charles Torres
I bet you enjoy the films of Wes Anderson.
Hunter Scott
Pan and scan in this day in age is a fucking sin for cinema. It's not suppose to be in 16x9 unless it was film/recorded in 16x9.
Josiah Baker
I thought everyone understood this in fucking 2017. I couldn't believe it.
Dylan Cooper
>netflix will never stop cropping panoramic picture to 16:9 normievision Stop giving these people money.
Zachary Moore
I don't think Netflix does this. At least not anymore.
James Foster
>2017 >pan and scan For what fucking purpose
Logan Roberts
>DURR, I GOT A WIDESCREEN TV. WHY MOOBIE NOT FILL UP SCREEN NOW?
Oliver Brooks
