Full HD, has nothing to do with fullscreen/widescreen, you need to look at the aspect ratio. 1:85:1 ratio, for example would fill up the whole screen on your widescreen tv with no black bars, whereas 2:35:1 would be wider and give you the black bars. If you have a standard fullscreen tv the aspect ratio would be 4:3, and I don't think you can find that in any Blu-ray.
