Try this... if you watch the movie press STOP (only once) then go to the menue with select and highlight the screensettings... you now can choose between 16:9 or 4:3 Pan-Scan or 4:3 Letterbox ! If you have a 16:9 TV than use this, if not use 4:3 Letterbox !!!
Maybe your PS2 is switched to 4:3 Pan-Scan, that will fill the whole screen, but there´s something missing at the left or right... with 4:3 Letterbox you will get the original Cinemaformat, but with black bars in the upper and lower part...

Look at this HP for more info:  http://www.dvddemystified.com/dvdfaq.html#3.5

...and here is some additional info on "The Fight Club": http://www.dvdreview.com/movies/VaultTitle.asp?movie_id=7215

I hope this´ll help you...

snatch is pretty cool.Its weird like fight club.In a good way.
to there are ways to give the illusion of AA,without having to take cuts in performance,and some developers are are taking advantage of themhowever ,until SOny comes up with a specific and easy ways to implement true AA that dosent take major hits on performance,you probably wont be seeing a huge number of games take advantage of it.

Yes I knew that.... and I tried it.....16:9 sux because everything is stretched from top to bottom. and pan-scan won\'t work with Fight Club so it\'s either 16:9 or 14:3.... and I\'m gonna have to stick with 14:3.

now doesn\'t it make you feel better?

You mean 4:3 Letterbox... right ?!
Well, this is the ONLY way to watch a 16:9 movie on a 4:3 TV ! You have to buy a 16:9 TV or get used to the black bars... Pan-Scan is ****, because it cuts a lot of information from the left and the right.
Get over it ! It´s not so bad if you have a large 4:3 TV... but if it´s a very small one... uh... forget it... it´s like listening to a DVD without a Dolby Digital/dts receiver... :D

Are you seriously asking this question?  I assume not since he has missing in quotes. At least I hope not.
