Re: your movies, the video will almost always be better and the audio, even from way back depending on where the BD is sourced from, may slightly benefit as well.

I have read comments from others who have purchased Blu-ray movies from that era and close to it. Nearly all have had good things to say about the step up in quality going from DVD, and in some cases laserdiscs, to Blu-ray. Remember, in order to go to Blu-ray resolution (yes, 4:3 included), the studio will almost always make a new High Definition master for the release. There are some older masters that don't look as good as today's which are used when a studio cheaps out, but even then the Blu-ray will show you more resolution than the DVD.
