How come my widescreen TV (16:9) has black bars at the top when I watch a widescreen DVD?

A wide screen TV is only has an aspect ratio of 1.77:1 were a wide screen move is 1.85:1 or 2.35:1. So you will still see black bars with the 2.35:1 movies, but they are smaller. With 1.85:1 movies you may see no black bars due to the over scan of the TV.
