OAR means Original Aspect Ratio. The question meant, do the movies on STARZ HD play in their Original Aspect Ratio.

The best way to find that out is watch it and look up the movie at

www.imbd.com

Click on DVD details on the left side. It will take a 2.35 native AR to find out if they are cropping. 1.85 will fill out the screen.

If you were wondering prior to subscribing sorry, can't help you, don't get it.

Thanks,
I know how to figure out if it's OAR if I'm watching it. I was wondering pre-subscription. However, thanks for replying.

I changed the title so you stand a better chance of geting a reply via our email notices to the HDTV Magazine community. Good Luck!

Sometimes they do and sometimes they don't. For example, THE INCREDIBLES and NATIONAL TREASURE were presented in 2.35. However, CHRONICLES OF NARNIA was not..
