I'll use Back to the Future as an example.

It was shot in open matte.

The "fullscreen" version is still just as horrible as ever, because you can see some revealing set props now in frame.
When Marty is being hanged, you can see a stage hand keeping the rope from choking him in the fullframe version.
A widescreen version is still the correct choice here.




Although, I think the Terminators were shot in an even stranger way...
