And yes, anamorphic doesn’t just mean “no black bars” it is about stretching a condensed image to the proper aspect. In film certain lenses take what would otherwise be a taller than intended image and stretches them to be wider, as intended. In the world of DVD they altered the meaning a little to be that an image taking up 720x480 would stretch to fit a 16x9 screen and look proper, basically giving more real estate to take advantage of in the same image spec.
