Maybe in the USA. Yes, in the USA. I do remember someone in a shop showing a widescreen version of one of the Rambo movies to me, from Japan and with Japanese subtitles in the black-bar area below the movie.

Well regarding the whole letterboxing on Laserdisc and such, here's a snippet from the "Museum" of the now defunct website Laserdisc Planet pulled from the Internet Archive . . . Attachment:

Apparently the CED of Amacord was the first fully letterboxed home video release if this is to be believed! You would think LD would have that honor.

I have long-been somewhat skeptical, yet curious, in regards to the oft-lofty Speaker Cable-related claims to be found out there. Well, Boy-oh-BOY did these Japanese custom-make CABLECRAFT 8ft. 12ga. affairs make an instant True Believer out of me!!! Made with MOGAMI 3103 12ga. bulk Speaker Cable, and terminated with ONKODO Banana Plugs... i could not hardly even believe the ways in which these made my system open right the hell up. Authority, Soundstage Dimension, and layers of VERY clearly-defined Detail, unlike anything i had yet heard within my 20 years of interest in Hi-Fi. This was most assuredly the sorely-missing link that has well and truly completed my system...

Why are the cables sticking half way out of the amp and why are they bending the jacks on the amp itself.

Got into lego just recently mostly movie theme related. Started with a lazy day not knowing what to do… so went out shopping and gave in to an Indiana Jones lego diorama. After that I discovered the Star Wars sets….
