it looks very nice indeed - - i should add, this is a rip from HDtv - not a
disc - but i daresay there now exists a HD master that they would use for
bluray and HD dvd etc.
Despite his preferences for "home viewing", they were filmed (as you no
doubt know) in 16:9, keeping the 4:3 section as "optimal".
They were still originally screened in cinemas in 16:9 (well, 2001 is
wider).
surely it's the opposite - they were filmed in 4:3 and cropped for cinema
exhibition - although this was obviously for the best as you see aeroplane
shadows on the flyovers in the 4:3 version.
