Unless someone gives you a FS DVD as a present.

I say if someone wants to see a screen-filling image, they should
set their player for a 16:9 screen. Any disc enhanced for widescreen
TVs (which is pretty much all of them these days) will play with the
image filling the screen. Sure, it might make James Earl Jones look
like a beanpole, but its no worse mutilation than pan'n'scan.
