Since this image has been making its way around, it only made sense to address it here. Following a previous announcement all the way back in May 2016, it seems 9Story Media (who currently own Garfield and Friends' distribution rights) has followed through with their plans and remastered the entire series in 4K!
As of this post, no footage of the restoration has been officially released, so whether or not these use the US masters is up in the air. I did however stumble across a set of images on 9Story's distribution site which seem to confirm they've been cropped to create a false widescreen image. Real unfortunate decision, as the picture quality is far superior to the DVDs (although a bit over saturated).

At the same time, the... tires? disks?... on the left are more visible.
ReplyDeleteReally not worth it if we have to sacrifice this large a chunk of the screen.
