I haven't seen Discovery Channel's version of Planet Earth, so I can't comment there, but the BBC's is wonderful! You will see exactly why you spent the big bucks!

Baraka was originally shot on film, but painstakingly transferred to hi-def video. TrueHD soundtrack really thunders too.

Classics like Casablanca or The Last Waltz can also be a real treat, not because they are hyper-detailed, but because they look like they were made yesterday.

Pixar Blu-Rays are top-notch, but if I were going to demo an animated feature, Kung Fu Panda from Dreamworks would be at or near the top of the list.
