I would recommend the following 5:

1. Apocalypto
2. The Departed
3. Pirates 1&2
4. Crank
5. Black Hawk Down

Sure that's 6 movies but this list will no doubt get the WOW factor going.

Those are good. Also:

Sahara

Black Rain (98% good looking for an 80's flick)

Casino Royale

Mission Impossible III

King Arthur

Casino Royale because you'll like the movie; if it's not the best PQ, it's still pretty damn good; and the sound - if you have a 5.1 Home Theatre set up - will no doubt exceed expectations.

Oh yeah Kingdom of Heaven and Eight Below for sure! and Casino Royale is sweet. The flesh tones are a little orangey at times but the visuals are stunning. Also I'm hearing Seven Years in Tibet looks good.

I would like to get Seven Years in Tibet so if this is a good blu-ray that would be sweet.

Welcome!!
Congrats on your PS3 and your decision to go Blu!!
I picked up my PS3 about 9 days ago, have about 600 DVDs and now have 10 BDs to my name.
I recommend:
Pirates and Pirates 2
Seven Years In Tibet (I read the AWESOME review in dvdfile.com)
Eight Below (I read you can make out the individual hairs on the dogs' fur! Another kick-ass BD)
Fantastic Four (Looks and sounds great, particularly it's DTS sound)
Kingdom of Heaven (who DOSEN'T like this BD???)
Apocalypto

Jodi
