Very close. I thought all three had excellent picture quality. If I were to pick and choose frames from each film, I'd actually say that AWE had the best PQ in certain scenes. The first third of AWE was very filtered though with heavy hues and blown whites -- by design. But it didn't lend itself to "stunning" imagery. In the final third of the film there were some really outstanding scenes.

Dead Man's Chest was more consistent. There were a few scenes (which I tried to photograph) that were quite stunning. I thought they did an excellent job with Black Pearl as well -- although I think it was a tad behind the other two.

Black Pearl -- 4.25/5
Dead Man's Chest -- 4.75/5
At World's End -- 4.76/5

No Predator doesn't look very good. In fact, it may be a tad worse than Commando. If I were rating it, I'd give it a 2/5 score on picture quality. I had to really dig to find a few screenshots that looked good. Sorry about the bad news. It ain't no Apolalypto, that's for sure.
