Black Hawk Down, Casino Royale, The Departed, 300

Blu Holer · 09-20-2007, 02:32 PM

I'm a brand new Blu-Ray adopter myself and so far the absolute WOW titles have been Casino Royale, Planet Earth and the 5th Element Remaster.

It's funny, but when I got into this, it was all about the movies. I didn't even think about things like nature documentaries. Then I got Planet Earth and it's just STUNNING. I want it playing all the time in the background, like some kind of giant window of the world. I can't wait for more Hi-Def BBC titles to come out.

JJ · 09-20-2007, 03:24 PM

Someone needs to include The Patriot in there - I hope Black Hawk Down has been mentioned, too...

SHayes · 09-20-2007, 03:46 PM

Don't forget Snow Dogs, I may be biased because I have a Husky and love them. The dogs look great and all of the outdoor scenes are just stunning. A must see and own.

Pirates of the Caribbean 2 is a must have. Even if you don't like it

.

I also recommend Ratatouille, which is one of the best animated movies ever made.

So where do you get Snow Dogs on Blu-ray?

King Darkness · 10-05-2007, 09:02 AM

I am fairly new to blu-ray to but I would HIGHLY suggest PotC 1 & 2.

They look AMAZING on BD!!!

JJ · 10-08-2007, 02:24 PM

Oof, Troy and Casino Royale and the two Pirates movies look amazing, on a better setup, they must look incredible!
