    I got blu ray on my laptop... and I got 300 as my first movie...

    it just looks epic.

    I've heard that you must have Planet Earth though.

    Chronicles of Rid .

    Pretty much anything with action is a must. Netflix is the best way to go with bluray.
    luva u actually like Chronicles of rid ? just wondering most people think its bad, but i think its a badass sci-fi movie just like pitch black-pretty much the character of rid is just badass.

    As for blu-ray, watch the matrix reloaded on it-for the freeway scene alone it is 100% worth it...i bought the whole blu ray matrix collection-that's a purchase i definitely will never regret. amazing

    I don't trust blu ray with that friggin' HDMI. I had nothing but troubles with it when using a blu-ray player at work for showing self-recorded material. The player always assumes I am using a pirated disc and the screen remains blank.

    Other than that I agree that action movies look awesome on Blu-Ray.

    Chronicles of Rid was a step down from Pitch Black, but it was cool, and it looked much better on Bluray. The Matrix series is about as good as it gets with Buray. I got Aliens (1986) in the mail today. Gladiator is released on Bluray on 9/1/09.
    Braveheart, too.

    I figure I would reply to the post that didn't help with what the original poster ask.

    Didn't want you to be off topic by yourself so I join in.

    no it wont, checkout slickdeals daily and you can get a 40in 1080p for cheap, good brand too. right now there is a special for a sony one at sears.

    IMO it does look a little better. No way it compares to a good HDTV but there is something special about tube CRTs that still "look good"

    unless your are watching your dvd's analog and your BD on a 6 color component that is available on the newer tube crts you really shouldn't. max is 480p
