Widescreen or Full Screen?

[KillerGremlin]

As an owner of a Hi-Def TV....widescreen. But I bought widescreen before then. My dad informed me of the loss of picture on the sides, way long ago. A lot of my friends always got fullscreen, not that I care. Their loss.

I always thought the widescreen ratio was the ratio used on actual screens in the theaters, which would mean no image is lost on wiescreen.
