You are a prime candidate for non-plasma displays, especially if what you watch has to be OAR -- no matter what.

The aspect ratio we have now, 1.78:1, came about due to a poor and asinine compromise made by the broadcast/display industry because the movie industry acted like a bunch of snobs (and still do, actually). They basically added an aspect ratio hadn't existed.

And by the way, watch enough content on your new display that isn't 1.78:1 and you'll have a similar problem. It takes a bit longer to happen, but with LCD it's called brown-in: a discoloration (a tannish tinge) of the area of the screen that's most used.
