its only on some small featurettes mind that matting thing luckily. For pc owners and those with decent players you just hit crop/zoom, and it should take care of it. This is actually the same with some videos on the Iron Maiden: Visions of the Beast (i think it was this disc) amongst others.... for some of their videos they have boarders all the way round them as in these discs. I think its done for speed reasons, some ARs are hard to map to PAL... I say hard... they really should have done it though

@dxa, lol... I don't like the plastic holders for the discs, I might put them in cases, since they are awkward to remove., but the content is really great, menus, extras (bar this matte thing) and especially the short movies are awesome
