Widescreen? Then why doesn’t it fit on my screen?

Random rant:
When a movie is “widescreen”, shouldn’t it fit on my widescreen tv? Now, I’m not an expert in this field but I have an average customer of the technoogy so would someone please explain this weird “super” widescreen they have?

Anyway, I just wanted to bring it up :-)

    A movie is shot in 2.39:1 which is wider then 16X9 and that is why it doesn’t fit on your widescreen tv. You can now buy tv’s for watching movies in its true ratio.
