1:33-1 movies on BD

Video Asylum

TVs, VCRs, DVD players, Home Theater systems and more.

It seems that many HDTVs automatically go into the widescreen mode when the HDMI input is used. So what happens if you watch a 1:33-1 BD movie like The Adventures of Robin Hood? Is it stretched out to fit the widescreen? Or is the disc "reverse letterboxed" to maintain it's proper aspect ratio on a 16-9 TV?
