Default Re: Stupid Wii widescreen question

[ QUOTE ]
Ill ask a PS3/360 WS question here.

I play normal DVDs on my Widescreen HDTV on both and the vast majority of movies still have bars. I thought WS TVs were supposed to eliminate bars. Is this common or am i doing something wrong?

16:9 TVs are wide, but not as wide as some movies. 16:9 is about 1.8:1. Some movies are shot at greater than 2:1. The aspect ratio is usually indicated on the DVD box.
