Sorry, but what on earth is that supposed to mean? That only "perfect" movies can do Blu-Ray "justice"? Considering that everyone has a different likes and dislikes, there would be very few movies that would qualify for Blu-Ray. (Even Citizen Kane has its detractors.) Or do you mean that it will not look "good" enough? Does that mean that only movies with "perfect" picture quality are acceptable for Blu-Ray? That would disallow some the of greatest movies ever made.

Blu-Ray is the medium, not the message. The goal with a Blu-Ray release should be to do justice to the original film, good, bad, 70mm, or 16mm. Some of my favorite Blu-Ray discs to date have been for underappreciated low-budget films like John Carpenter's Assault on Precinct 13. On Blu-Ray, the movie looks as good as it possibly can (and better than any other version of the film that I have seen.) It will never look like Transformers, but it will always be a vastly superior film.

Regarding Titan: AE, while it may not be a masterpiece, I have always thought that it was underrated, and it would be fun on Blu-Ray. In fact, it could make some very strong demo material.
