Old thread. Was I the only one disappointed with Planet Earth on BD? I have it (and Blue Planet) on DVD and it looks fantastic upscaled. In fact it's not that far off the 720p/1080i European BD release! BBC's "Life" on the other hand should look amazing in full 1080p I just haven't had the chance to check it out yet.

i have band of brothers on blu ray. it looks nice but i wasn't bowled over tbh. the dullness of it takes away alittle bit IMO

i have black hawk down too which is quite good. i think i may watch that this weekend actually. the dark knight also looks good in it.

Just got Terminator salvation still sealed for £10

Agree with what people have said in regards to the more HD content you watch the more you realise the inferiority of standard definition media.
