I am not sure the James Bond Blu-rays are a good addition to a list of this kind. While they look good considered on their own merits, Lowry performed extensive digital processing on most of them. Check the credits of each Blu-ray if you do not believe me. They really do not look like exact duplicates of the original film prints as a moviegoer would have seen upon release. They all have been grain-reduced to a point, with varying effects.
They still look very good, but film-like is not the most accurate characterization I would use for them.
