Give me some Blu-ray recommendations

[grandmaster]

Hello,

I have a PS3 and so far I haven't been making full use of the BD drive in it. Currently I have the following films on BD:

Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
Rambo
Superman Returns
I am Legend
Casino Royale
Spiderman Trilogy

I would like to get a few more BD discs and have been looking at the other threads to get ideas.

I noticed that Blade Runner and Close Encounters both appeared on many people's lists, however I've never seen the former and have only seen the latter once or twice I think.

Just wanted some ideas for BD discs. Also, I'm located in Ireland so there are quite a few BD discs that I can't get here, unless I import them from the US. But don't let that stop you recommending them

weep...search functiom. This may be the new "Star Wars" or "Black Bars" thread. There are 234,441,567 threads answering this same question.

The Fugitive is reference quality.

I'd use this as a guide (in addition to your own personal taste in movies of course....... People say Pirates of the Carribean a lot... but I can't bring myself to buy it!!!)

I've never actually seen any of the Pirates of the Carribean films. I hear they are good, or at least the first one is, but I've never had much interest in watching them. It's a bit like the film Braveheart. I'm pretty much the only person I know who has never seen it. And as a result, it's almost become a badge of honour for me

[theprophecy247]

gotta get irobot and i am legend

[H00D4M4N]

I Am Legend (one of the best video qualities currently)
Pan's Labyrinth
Apocalypto
Shoot Em Up

The Signal is a great movie, but it's really low-budget and isn't what I would call "demo" material. Still, it's one of the cheaper Blu-rays so I'll recommend it.

The orphanage is a GREAT FILM
face/off
Pirates (all 3)
Dave Matthews
Blade Runner
Patton
etc etc etc.

just look at the best reviewed on this site.

[Twankies08]

If you can get"There Will Be Blood", then thats
my recommendation!!!!!

[bajor27]

Crank
Shoot 'Em Up
Pirates of the Caribbean (don't bother watching the other 2)
Ratatouille and Cars (if you can watch animation)
The Rock
Day After Tomorrow
Fifth Element
The Prestige (awesome movie which I'm guessing a lot of people missed out on)

I'd also recommend 300 (if you're prepared to see grain) but it's being re-released next year and I'd recommend waiting.

I've also never seen Braveheart, but it's on the rental list so eventually I will see it.

[sotodavid88]

Blade Runner
Casino Royale
Rambo
Sunshine

[RAZGRIZ-1]

Blade Runner is awesome!
I also recommend:
Black Hawk Down
iRobot
I am Legend
Rambo
Harry Potter 1-5
Pirates of the Carribean 1-3
Casino Royale
GoodFellas(Favorite Gangster movie ever)
The Departed (made by the director of GoodFellas, also good)
The Transporter 1-2
Troy (this is a must have for all BD owners.)
300
Full Metal Jacket
The Rock
