That's the one good thing about the ultra-wide mlvie format vs a normal screen. You get some space the movie never occupies.

In programs like Media Player Classic, you can easily shift the video up on the screen. Just push the movie up until it's touching the top edge, and suddenly there's a nice space for subtitles that don't overlap the movie!

The phone idea and other stuff people have mentioned already do sound pretty neat for 16x9 media though.
