T2. It still will blow the freaking pants off of most everything put out today.

I also realize that "T2" is no longer a defacto name for a given movie, what with the dreck called "Transformers 2" out now. I DO NOT MEAN THAT.

T2 ain't got no superheroes! And it's old!

But Revenge of the Fallen . . . now THAT would be excellent.

Strange as it might seem some are better in blu ray than others. It's not always the the big sci fi graphics that play the best. 3:10 to Yuma was incredible on blu ray.

Apocolypse Now. Or....Natural Born Killers. I know these are old, but they just don't make movies like them anymore.

I agree with Saving Private Ryan. Another one I thought was good was 300.

I'm betting that The Fifth Element would kick ass.

Haven't seen it but Pirates of the Caribbean seems like good Blu-Ray choice. Most recent animated stuff is pretty amazing as well.
