Yes there is. It wasn't projected at 4x3. Rumor has it that WB is putting out a proper widescreen version of the uncut print soon.

Eyes Wide Shut was shot in 4:3. No need for an anamorphic transfer

It wasn't projected in 4:3 because most movie theaters can't do it anymore (or so I've been told). Kubrick shot this composed for 4:3. Not to say he didn't pay attention to the widescreen version, but Eyes Wide Shut (and, for the record Full Metal Jacket and The Shining) were all filmed and intended to be scene in 4:3. Widescreening would cut off half the movie.
