Top 3 Blu-Rays you own and why?

[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.
