really its a bad one to demo due to the intentional low quality due to the grain etc

Battlestar Galactica is like that as well, there's even a warning on the beginning that basically says that the graininess is due to "artistic choices".

Bit late to this party, but I bought my second Blu Ray this week (first was The Hurt Locker)...

Baraka

It's just insane, shot on 70mm film in 1992, easily the best looking thing I've ever seen on my TV. Don't worry too much about the spiritual side of it if that isn't your thing (I generally can't stand that kind of slant, prefer nature films myself), it's spine tingling stuff.

Missus generally has no interest, but she just sat silently watching, great review here, basically the transfer is way, waaaay beyond the capabilities any technology we have in the home.

i always find the digitally animated stuff looks great but seems a little weird at the same time. i understand and can see the picture quality is superb but it looks as though you're watching an FMV from a video game. it a completely different type of home movie experience.

live action on the other hand is immense!

Die Hard 4.0 was pretty cool when i watched it HD

You might look at that and think why the f**k would I want to watch that but trust me it's an excellent film and in Bluray it knocks most other films out of the water.
