Have you tried other “16:9” or 1.78:1. Some movies look like they will be 1.78:1 but are actually 1.85:1 which is wider and will appear narrower vertically to fit on the same size screen thus giving small horizontal bars above and below the screen. When you put in a 2:35:1 they get even bigger. Also movies will often have a 1.78:1 or 1.85:1 menu while the feature is actually in 2.35:1.

Try another couple movies and see if they all have the bars after the menu.
