What are YOUR best Blu's?
I know that there is a "sticky" for Blu Ray recommendations, but I'm curious as to what you guys have in your collection and what you deem to be your best Blu Rays overall (sound, picture etc)?

The Dark Knight
Star Trek 2009
Red Cliff Pts. 1 & 2
30 days of night (Visuals)
North by Northwest
Pirates of the Caribbean (all 3 films)
Moon
These are the titles I can think of at the moment. I'll repost when I've done a more extensive review of my discs.

Re: What are YOUR best Blu's?
Band of Brothers (I don't know, maybe its just me so far)
Rome - The Complete Series
Red Cliff I & II
Battlestar Gallactica - Complete Series
Once Upon A Time in the West
Wall-E (at least visually & sound, not so much content)
I'm not sure really, someone else would have to tell me.

Close Encounters of the Third Kind- great movie and the a/v is great for a 30+ year old movie

I love that movie to death, but I was not impressed by the Blu Ray quality. The sound did nothing for me and the picture lacked the film look that it should have had.
The Dark Knight (IMAX scenes)
Blade Runner
Anything Pixar
The Incredible Hulk
District 9 (this is the first movie in which the Red One really impressed me)
Indiana Jones 4
Snatch
Hellboy II

Re: What are YOUR best Blu's?
Wow. Ok, I know there was a whole heap of blather about the "lens flare" fest in Trek but, this is the first I've heard about the audio/video on the BD not being up to par. I've cranked this film on at least 3 occasions and my HT has yet to underwhelm me! Obviously, I thought the film was stellar in every department but to each his own. I do however, agree with the balance of your assertions and will add, Watchmen to my list as well. Its been a while since I watched Blade Runner on BD though. I can remember it being an incredible presentation but I'd have to re-watch it to see how it rates next to the other titles I've listed.
