Name a Bluray disc for me

Hi everyone, I just got a Bluray player, and am excited about finally seeing what is the deal with Bluray discs. Anyone want to suggest what to view first, the definitive Bluray disc that shows it's capabilities in all their glory? I especially like action and sci fi. Any takers?

Casino Royal, Avatar...picture. What type of setup have you got with regards sound? The audio is also much better but you will need an amplifier/receiver cabable of HD output.

Sci-fi I'd recommend Sunshine and Star Trek (reboot).

Have you ever imagined a world with no hypothetical situations?

Blade Runner. Two anniversary packages just came out a few weeks ago.

I was looking at a Yamaha setup that seemed pretty good, but most of the time I'll be using some HD headphones. Sort of nixes the surround sound effect I guess.

I would name it Igor and make it do your bidding, like play, forward and even pause

If I am understanding you correctly here you are implying that it seems VCRs may have just been repressed metaphors for dominatrixes. Is that the gist of what you are saying, the jib, or neither?
