Wow... its like AVS... only here! It is called aspect ratio... the monitors/tvs that are "widescreen" are made to "encompass" all widescreen formats... it is 16x9... which I believe is 1.78:1 ratio, while your Tokyo Drift (and many other movies) are in 2.35:1.

EDIT: And to answer your last question, check the back of the case for the aspect ratio... 2.35:1 is what you hate... and you are the reason we have full screen dvds and make me cry.
