Top 3 Blu-Rays you own and why?

[Roland1919]

MY TOP 3 ARE:

1) 2001 Space Odyssey - Great, Timeless Sci-Fi, well directed. HAL is scary and is nothing but a voice - powerful. Transfer is the best I've seen

2) Pans Labyrinth - Georgous to watch, wonderfully acted, great balance between the real and the unreal.

3) Casino Royle - Its the one I always demo for friends that haven't had the BLU experience yet.

Anxiously Awaiting.... Gangs of NY, Wizard of OZ, The Good The Bad, The Ugly, the Machinest, Donnie Darko, Intersection, Stand By Me, Batman Begins to name but a few....

1. Cars - because it is the most spectacular demonstration of my rig. And, it's a cool movie.

2. Pirates OTC (Black Pearl) - because I love the movie anyway and it looks amazing.

3. Planet Earth Box. Because it is what it is.

[Nooff]

1: Ratatouille (FANTASTIC PQ and a really good soundtrack!)

2: Cars (What can be said, another great release by Disney/Pixar)

3: Casino Royale (It's a great looking and sounding James Bond Film, I just can't get enough of it )

[kolasi]

1: 300 - cause i love the movie and can watch it countless times.
2: ratatouille - great pq.
3: cars - great pq.

[bighorns]

300- It's my favorite and it looks amazing.

Shoot em' up- Audio is out of this world and it's fun to watch.

[NexusFX]

Cars (PQ is phenomenal)
POTC: Curse of the Black Pearl
Enemy of the State (Can watch this over and over agian)

[BluUrMyBoy!]

1. Planet Earth, because of the amazing visuals and just for being incredibly interesting
2. 300
3. Casino Royale - Not even a big Bond fan, but loved this movie.

[surfdude12]

1. 3:10 to Yuma: great story, awesome PQ, awesome AQ (best in all 3)
2. Black Hawk Down: nonstop action, PQ and AQ are also both top-notch
3. Ratatouille: best animated (although haven't seen Cars yet)

[Blue-Man]

1) 3:10 To Yuma
2) Kingdom of Heaven
3) Pirates OTC 1

They are all great movies made better on blu

[Philip1]

1. Ghost Rider - Its great in Blu-Ray.... I've watch both DVD and Blu, and I can see the differance
2. Pan's Labyrinth - WOW is all I can say!
3. Pirates OTC: At Worlds End - Freaken awsome, you can't go wrong with Blu-Ray

[hc666]

1. Pan's Labyrinth - because it's awesome.... pic quality and the dts-hs-ma 7.1 will rock your house off the foundation.

2. 2001: A Space Odyssey just because it's the greatest movie ever made and looks amazing on blu.

3. Live Free or Die Hard - the audio is off the chain! Like seriously, it's insane sounding and the PQ is extremely good.

casino royale brilliant transfer
fifth element brilliant transfer
total recall not a great transfer but love the film to death
terminator 2 not a great transfer but love the film to death
predator not a great transfer but love the film to death

ok thats 5 because 3 just isnt enough

hi im back forgot about die hard4.0 lol

[The Laughing Man]

1. Cars - is there any clearer transfer than this one?
2. Sunshine - A feast for the eyes and the ears.
3. Kingdom of Heaven - might as well be in the movie theater. Some film grain, but it adds to the film experience. Crystal clear clarity, amazing sound.

[JimSD]

1. Casino Royale - This movie is why I got a PS3. It's now my favorite Bond film and the video really pops in places. I've watched this 4 or 5 times already.

2. Cars - Although I like several other Pixar films quite a bit more, the Blu-ray version of this movie adds so much over the DVD version, especially in the audio department. The growl of the engines is fantastic. This movie came alive much more on Blu-ray than it did on DVD, that's why it gets a nod.

3. (tie) Surf's Up - I got this as a blind buy and it was even better than I thought it would be. I totally 'got' what they were trying to do with the documentary style. It's one of the few films I've watched all the extras on in the last year. Very cool stuff on how they achieved the handheld camera feel. I feel if this had been labelled a Pixar film everyone would be raving how great it is.

3. (tie) Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End - The audio and video on this are outstanding. You can really crank the audio on this one and it doesn't get fatigueing.

I have other films such as Black Hawk Down, The Departed, and Cast Away that I think are better films than most of the above, but the Blu-ray presentations of the top 3 I listed are spectacular examples of how good the Blu-ray format can be.

[un4gvn94538]

cars favorite toon for me and the kids
potc (all) fun to watch great pq
close encounters classic movie great edition

[wnicholas76]

1. Casino Royale -- The BEST James Bond film in years!

2. Live Free or Die Hard -- Dynamite sound and PQ! (Need I say more?)

3. (tie) Blade Runner -- One of the 10 best sci-fi films ever and is equally deserving of the 5-disc Blu-ray treatment, with a superb transfer to add!

3. (tie) Ratatouille -- Because it looks and sounds better than my old DVD version of the film! I'm so glad I upgraded to the Blu-ray version of the movie!

[KenThompson]

Top 3 bds are in order
1. Casino Royale
2. Pirates (all 3)
3. Fantastic Four Silver Surfer

Casino Royal had the locales and of course the bd product placement. Can't choose between the Pirate movies and Fantastic Four Silver Surfer was a wow. I've got alot of those wow bd's so choosing top 3 no easy task. Have alot of 4.5 star transfers. I could just as easily added Cars to the list,its flawless.

[quaylie]

1.Ghost Rider (yeah kinda cheesy story..but amazing transfer..PQ is brilliant!)
2.Kingdom of Heaven Director's Cut (3 hours of eye candy!)
3.Meet the Robinsons (Looks and sounds amazing)

Runner up:
Flyboys (a must buy on BD..great PQ/AQ and pretty good story as well)

I totally agree, I bought this because I thought it would be fun for my 2 year old and found myself really enjoying it.
