I'm contemplating The Fifth Element/Gattaca which is the only one that jumps out to me. I liked Gattaca when I saw it as a kid but I haven't seen it since.

re: Best Buy / bestbuy.com discounts and deals on Blu-ray
I bought it this last weekend. I have a fairly good understanding of video quality and can rank blurays based on video and audio. despite all the claims of remastering, 'the fifth element' still looks terrible on Bluray. at first I thought I had landed the dreaded earlier release but with confirmation from various forums on the web, I was able to confirm I had the remastered version indeed. Then my mind went to the manufacturer ripping you off by including the newer packaging but the older disc. But the audio menu on the disc does show 'Dolby True HD' and 'PCM uncompressed' which I believe are the tracks on the remastered version. But despite all these claims, the disc looks absolutely terrible - its no better than an upconverted DVD. With current restorations from Paramount, Warner and Universal, Sony should be ashamed to call this Full 1080p. This is a royal rip off and I feel very cheated in this claim. I haven't played back Gattaca yet but I went into this primarily for the Fifth Element. And I can't believe the praise I see on the Internet for this re-release. Please be warned

I was gonna upgrade to the Fifth Element Blu from my Ultimate Edition DVD... but now I think I'll just save my money for something else.
Any idea why so many sites, including this one, are so complimentary of the remastered Blu-ray?

That was a quick sellout. Luckily I ordered it late last night.

I could be wrong, but I still have the Blu-ray, which is a good sign because a shitty transfer Blu-ray I normally toss in the trash.
