The Z Movies
What's up guys!, can anyone here tell me anything about the PQ of the 4x3 uncut version of the (singles) movies. Looking to collect them.

Re: The Z Movies
Here's a little comparison video for the credits for Movie 13. FUNimation Single (left) vs Toei Dragon Box (right)

As you can see, the Single has better contrast, but the Dragon Box has better colors. These look good in my opinion, but wouldn't you be better off getting the Blu-Ray version? Unless cropping's a turn off for you that is.

Re: The Z Movies
They are cropped as in they were animated on traditional 4:3 cels with the intent to be 16:9. Some other releases, like the North American singles, were the 4:3.
Since they were shown in theaters they were intended to be seen 16:9 from the beginning, but some prefer getting the 4:3 so they have everything including what wasn't meant to be seen.
