What movie would you recommend to people without a Blu Ray to convert them.

[jchand67]

OK, this may have been done before, but just curious as to what movie everyone would recommend to someone withhout a Blu player to sell them on the incredible PQ, SQ, etc.

My choices would start off with Transformers, and Speed Racer right off the bat. But there are a lot of choices out there.

Planet Earth
I, Robot
Casino Royale
Transformers
Iron Man
The Incredible Hulk
The Dark Knight
Chronicles of Narnia 1 or 2
Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy
Speed Racer (for PQ but it doesn't have lossless audio, still sounds pretty good though)

If you want them to see how good older movies can look, Blade Runner, 2001, or Patton would be good.

Most of the animated flicks look/sound great: Cars, Wall-E, Ratatouille, etc.

2001 had my dad's jaw open.

[Kynch]

My dad KEEPS using Casino Royale on and on and on...
Okay it has the very nice chase scene in the beginning but after seeing it 20 times... you kind of get sick of it. Very good demo material though.

I think I'll try to go with Transformers or I Am Legend.

Cars is a solid choice

Happy Feet did it for me lol saw it on the floor display at futureshop and i thought "man, i want 1080p high def!" (had a 32" sharp aquos lcd 1080i) so i picked up a 47" LG and a couple months later a ps3

+1 I don't own the Chronicles of Narnia 1 or 2 so i say how good they are. Speed Racer looks amazing! The Audio is not lossless, but it is still pretty good. I would also add to this list Rescue Dawn. It looks great, although repeat value is not high. The Hellboy movies also look really good.

[Marcusarilius]

The Fifth Element
I Robot
30 Days of Night
Underworld 1 and 2

[Disco]

Black Hawk Down
Patriot
Troy
Last Samurai
Hidalgo
Apocalypto
The Mummy
Planet Earth
All three Pirates of Carribean

All have excellent Picture Quality (PQ)
All have a great deal of action and are very entertaining.

[Sloan78]

TDK
Pirates 1,2,3
Planet Earth
Band of Brothers
Wall-E
TIH
Iron Man

Oddly enough the Hannah Montana concert was one I inadvertently ended up demo'ing and the 3d aspect of it and how crisp it was blew the person away.

Planet Earth

[Mannyfresh84]

So many demo worthy movies to choose from.

I'd go with...

Live Free or Die Hard
Shoot Em Up
Ice Age
A Few Good Men (not bad for a film 16 years old)
The Dark Knight (of course)
Rambo (especially for the audio)
Transformers
and any 3 of The Matrix films
