(I'm a superhero guy)
I tested them out, and while they look beautiful, they are shot extra wide, leaving me with black bars on top and bottom. Is there anywhere a list of 4K UHD Blu-rays that fill the full frame of the screen?
Also, I later realized about HDR and how my tv does not support it. Is this a huge deal, and should I be looking to replace my TV after only owning for 3 months, or is the 4K upgrade enough?
Thanks for all your help!

Someone asked a similar question in another UHD thread. Here was my response

In the "old days" they called it pan and scan....the studio would release a movie "to fill the screen"...cutting off portions of the image to fill the screen.
You have the ability to zoom in on the image (TV's, dvd or blu ray players usually have the option...typically called "zoom"). But, you would be in the minority or direct opposition to most members that hang out here, any movie or home theater forum.
If you want more information, google the term "aspect ratio".

If you only want to buy movies that "fill your screen's" aspect ratio (16x9), then you need to look up the movies' aspect ratio before purchasing. Those movies that will "fill your screen" will be limited to 1.85 or 1.78.
