Default No Black Bars in Theaters...

With all the confusion and discussion about the various aspect ratios in relation to Black Bars incorporated into widescreen home movies, how is it still possible that j6p and even more "informed" individuals just don't seem to get it?

I have noticed in theaters, that when the aspect ratio is wider, they will simply open the curtains wider as the lights begin to dim. The vertical height appears to be the same, but the sides are "opened" up with drawn back curtains to acomodate the wider aspect ratio.

Could it be as simple as putting curtains on HD sets for j6p?
