Casino Royale With the first chase seen alone worth the purchase, Casino Royale is still one of the greatest Blu-ray titles released to date. It is even better with some excellent speakers.
The Fifth Element With beautiful picture quality amidst a futuristic setting, The Fifth Element on Blu-ray contains action and music that are both out of this world.
Happy Feet No doubt about it, this is the disc in which Blu-ray's visual superiority stomps its HD DVD equivalent. Indeed, it is the most flawless of the Blu-ray transfers, visually that is.
Layer Cake This beautifully transfered disc is stunning example of the power of the Blu-ray discs. Like it or not, I think you'll have to agree this is a small jewel of a movie.
Pearl Harbor I may be wrong about this, but I think this Michael Bay film was the first mastered to show the potential of the Blu-ray technology. This is definitely worth looking into.

Batman Begins The HD DVD version of Batman Begins has been extolled as an example of how good HD DVD could be. It is scrumptious to behold.
The Departed If you really want to have a bit of fun, this dual-sided disc will supply it. With stunningly clarity and excellent audio options, this title remains a very acclaimed HD DVD release.
Hulk The images simply dazzle, alone showing why this may be (so far) the best of the Universal/MCA titles. The picture is so clean that you find yourself more involved than you were in the theater.
King Kong In King Kong on HD DVD, we have nearly an hour’s worth of smashing digital effects and a rip-roaring, scary soundtrack in which the rear channels are used imaginatively.
The Searchers This latest restoration of The Searchers illuminates the glories of high-definition home video. And it looks just simply spectacular.
