Windowboxing.


What the hell is the point in doing that? Why not just stretch it out? 


My guess in your example is the Star Wars DVDs were done to accomadate old televisions.  Then newer wide screens came out so not only do you get letterbox (vertical bars) but also pillarbox (vertical bars) creating the window box effect.  

May check settings on DVDs to see if they have options to be viewed on different aspect ratio screens.
