Pity poor Australia. As far as I know, region 4 has only ever had Philosopher's
Stone in fullscreen. After many complaints the later films were released in
widescreen only, but they've yet to receive a 'proper' PS DVD.

Indeed. As I alluded to earlier,
my public library always buys fullscreen DVDs. I usually borrow them just
for the shock value. I remember X-Men 2 being particularly horrifying to watch
that way.
