Just got Zodiac, that has an excellent picture. I was quite suprissed about 'Shoot'em up' on blu-ray. Great picture and sound and entertaining movie!

You gotta go for 'The Lives of Others' on Blu Ray if you get a player
Also:-
Mission Impossible 3
Queen Rock Montreal
Behind Enemy Lines
Close Encounters of The Third Kind
Cat People (Good HD, cheesy movie IMHO) from 1982
Forthcoming I'm sure Indiana Jones movies!! | |

'Film' is very high effective resolution. They put the film into a machine which scans each frame and digitises it. So old films can look just as good as new films on Blu-Ray or HD-DVD
You do know that Toshiba have pulled out of HD-DVD right?
