i got a p3 yesturday and i wanna start stacking up on bluray movies so far i have 300,5th element and hellboy...what are some other good looking movies??? im staying away from movies like hitch and 50 first dates just because i want something that will pop out and you can notice the sharpness of the picture
I have Casino Royale, 300, and Kingdom of Heaven Director's Cut and they all look incredible. Planet Earth is the first thing I'm buying when I get my projector.
I was highly impressed by the Prestige, even Ghost Rider looks really nice. Pretty much every Bluray I've seen so far has impressed me. With that said my jaw hit the floor when I got Planet Earth. IMO nothing I've seen tops it. The colors and clarity are second to none.
Pirates Dead Mans Chest. But that movie is just okay as far as the movie itself. I personally really liked the movie Apocalypto, which looks very good as well. Here's a link discussing/ranking BD picture quality:
PS - to the original poster, which 5th Element do you have? There is one that is not great at all, and the remastered one which is significantly better.
A good place for blu-ray reviews is the avsforum.com and bluray.highdefdigest.com. these are videophiles who have the equipment and eye to tell the minute differences.
Casino Royal is really nice looking. you can actually see that the chick in there has really light freckles. 300 is nice but is grainy. Planet earth is a good show peice (the british version not the discovery channel version)

PLANET EARTH is awsome...documentary of the world and it shows off ur 1080p TV nicly
give it a year, and movie studios will do the biggest switchover in history, by switching from film to digital, Blu-ray is good now, but its about to get twice as good.
The best looking movie I've seen hands down is Crank. It is one of the only movies other than Apocalypto that was shot in HD I've seen and that is why it shines. When you get to the close up shots when Statham is driving in the car you can see every crinkle and crease on his face. It's creepy. Nothing I have shown my friends has really made them freak, but Crank did.
Planet Earth is also great, but it's the content you are watching that is more jaw dropping than the actual picture clarity. Some things are hit and miss, anything with mountains is just gorgeous, but some other stuff involving water is not as good. It's the content people are hyping.
i'm waiting for dragon's lair i remember going to the arcade and wanted to beat it but there was always i stupid kid playing every time i went in there. so now i don't have to smack that kid out of the way.lol
