No, actually, the examples in my original post were from my own computer, with my own DVDs. Some companies film the movie in fullscreen, and then crop it for widescreen/theater release. See this site for details. (http://www.thedigitalbits.com/articles/anamorphic/aspectratios/widescreenorama2.html)
I believe this is what happened with my Ever After DVD, and so I am asking would people rather me continue capping this movie in widescreen, which cuts out part of the picture, or full screen, which doesn't.
