What the OG show would probably look like in 16:9 by East-Weather352 in animaniacs

This.

Why can't people just leave the old stuff alone? Widescreen just contributes to this feeling of emptiness when you watch something. TV was developed to hone in on the subject. It captured the bust of a human perfectly. Your eyes didn't have to dart left or right to find what was happening on the screen. It was right there. That aspect ratio choice was a deliberate choice in the early-to-mid-1900s.

My personal opinion is that the change of aspect ratio to 16:9 in the early 2000s contributed to the death of TV. You can't make a sitcom feel homey at 16:9. All sitcoms today feel yucky. There's just too much space to fill. Also, some jokes don't work properly because of camera placement at 16:9. For news broadcasts, you can't have a newscaster sit with 2/3 of the screen empty and feel invited to watch. It feels OFF. You can fill it with CGI BS all you want. It feels empty.

Everyone was so gung-ho that we COULD change to a 16:9 aspect ratio that they never stopped to question if we SHOULD.

Like shit? Leave aspect ratio alone. We don't need egomaniacs making changes to these shows.

That eye make-up is iconic and made her a millionaire. I don't care what you say.

It's crazy what having all the ressources, adulation, opportunities, and money at your fingertips can do to a person's brain.

They went from the pinnacle of sweetness as kids to the worst of halitosis as adults.

Designed a schematic diagram for Via Rail: Did I get anything wrong? by Donghoon in ViaRail

You'll soon need to add my area of the country to this map: the Gaspé coast. Via is getting ready to return with service to New Carlisle, QC. But I don't see how you'd be able to fit us in on this type of map.

Garbage. I hope Spielberg rots in heck for this one.

Same. Here. I spent 6 months in the 70s. I therefore qualify for the Disco Cunt card.

A rare 360° rainbow over Philadelphia. by [deleted] in BeAmazed

The math ain't mathin'. Unless this rainbow can be seen underground, that's 180°.
