If I buy a DVD from, say, amazon.com, how do I know if it's Widescreen or Fullscrren (yuck)?
OK, paradoxically, "fullscreen" means it won't fill up the screen on my HDTV. "Fullscreen is the 4:3 aspect, and only shows in the middle of the screen. And, no, the WS FS option doesn't exist on listings for, like, "Weeds Season 1". At least, it doesn't on amazon.com

On Amazon, they usually list the aspect ratio under product details. Fullscreen movies are 4:3 or 1.33:1. Or they will specify widescreen or fullscreen edition in the title or under "format" in the product details.

Usually there will be two versions maybe abbreviated as (WS) and (FS), if there isn't the movie either has both (then you need not worry) or only comes in either widescreen (OK) or fullscreen (which means that's the only way it is available anyway) When you are ordering pick the (WS) one. Most new movies are widescreen older ones (or TV movies) are often fullscreen.

Usually the movie comes with the option of watching it on FS and WS modes. Just look around the menu and you'll find it.
