Blu-Ray owners: What's your top 10 BD titles of 2006?
I started a HD DVD thread. Here's a thread for the BD owners. What's your 10 best of '06?
Me:
1. Black Hawk Down - Great movie. Great video. This one contains the best audio track (Uncompressed PCM) I've heard on either format.
2. Enemy of the State - Damn, this one is such a huge improvement over the dvd in terms of video. Plus, it contains a PCM track. Big thumbs up.
3. Superman Returns - Yeah, it sucks the BD gets shafted on the audio side. The video looks identical to the HD DVD. And again, the massive 3-hour documentary helps.
4. Ice Age 2 - Video is reference. But it should be since we're dealing with digital characters.
5. Underworld: Evolution - Love the video. Even the night sequences jump out with some solid detail. Another fantastic PCM track.
6. X-Men: The Last Stand - All extras in 1080p. The video has some nice coloring and Fox provides the DTS Master Audio mix. Even the core sounds amazing. Too bad it's not a BD-50.
7. Pearl Harbor - Yeah, the acting is horrible. But the audio/video presentation is very good. This one includes a bombastic PCM track.
8. Kingdom of Heaven - Looks and sounds great. Just imagine, if Fox had used VC-1 for compression, we may have seen some extras on this 50 gig disc.
9. Tears of the Sun - Movie is okay, but the PCM track is very active during the action sequences. This one was probably the first Sony title they actually got right.
10. Monster House - Again, animated films should look great. And this one does. Plus, we get another PCM track.

Here's my top 10, easier to separate since I don't have as many.
Black Hawk Down
Kingdom of Heaven: DC
Speed
The Wild
Ice Age The Meltdown
Devils Rejects
Pearl Harbor
Kung Fu Hustle
Monster House
Tears of the Sun
ETA: I just finished watching Kung Fu Hustle, and I have no problem bouncing X3 off my list.
