Star Wars Clone Wars Season 1, DVD, Warner Bros Entertainment Norge AS, Norway 2010

Norwegian release collecting the first four DVD volumes of the Clone Wars. The discs were released separately during the course of 2009, then collected here in this 2010 release. The discs are identical. The set comes with a standard 4-disc DVD case with an O-ring slip with the same design. Apart from that they didn't make much of an effort to make this release anything special. There wasn't a chapter guide included with my copy, but I bought it used so there may have been one originally. At this point in time I had switched over to Blu-ray for my home entertainment, so I skipped over the DVD releases. I bought some of these on and off, but only for collecting purposes, so quite a few of them are still sealed. I bought my copy in 2011. These releases are in the broadcast 1.78:1 aspect ratio, while the US Blu-Ray release retained the full 2.39:a widescreen frame. It is understandable that Warner geared these DVDs to children, and the show was created to work in both aspect ratios. Still, seeing the entire image is preferred. Here's a comparison of the cropped and full widescreen ratios: According to www.starwars.com the only place to see the full image is on the Season 1 box set, but as you can see from these grabs they were screened in 2.39:1 on UK channel SKY.
