Why does HD DVD picture distort on Mitsubishi Projection TV?

I own a Mitsubishi WS-65907 Projection TV which I purchased in 2001
and I recently bought a Toshiba HD DVD player. When watching the film
"Troy" the picture is crystal-clear but when the camera moves on wide,
panoramic scenes the picture is distorted, like it's being compressed
or bent as if the film were being dragged across a "transparent"
corner as the camera moves. This distortion does NOT occur when
watching Discovery or ESPN HD. It is connected with component cables
(HDMI was not invented in 2001) and all settings are for 16X9. Does
this type of distortion occur on other projection TVs or is just my
TV? Does it occur on LCD/Plasmas? I used to get the same type of
distortion 3 years ago when "VOOM" HD satellite provider was in
business and they had 30 HDTV channels! Is there a way to fix this
problem without buying a new TV?
