Best HD/1080p movies
 
List them. I'm looking for movies that are "visually stunning" and don't necessarily have an amazing story. I watched Disney's Earth and that was pretty cool. Might buy Oceans when it comes out. There's also a BBC documentary called "Planet Earth" that I guess I should check out. But these don't need to be documentaries or earth-themed, they just need to look cool.


So what movie is "the best" at looking cool?

Eyes Wide Shut
There Will Be Blood
No Country for Old Men
Star Trek
Iron Man

Baraka - Pretty much just incredible shots of things for the entire movie. This will be exactly what you are looking for.

Microcosmos - Like close ups of bugs and kewl stuff like that.

BBC Blue Planet box set.

Also Disney's Earth was just footage from BBC's Planet Earth. You should def check out all of Planet Earth, it is amazing.

I know. Haven't used it for anything in like a year honestly but still paying the monthly fee for some reason.

Are you getting Baraka on DVD or Blu Ray?

RoXer 09-22-2010 04:07 AM

Bluray

Benjamin Button is visually stunning.

El Capitano Gatisto 09-22-2010 01:23 PM

There was a BBC series on last year from the same team who did Planet Earth, called Life. It's an amazing show. The best bit is this fish that lives outside of water and flaps around in mud, walking around. It's like watching evolution in front of your face, you'd love to just buy one of these little fish and throw it at a Creationist.


Another one earlier this year I think called Nature's Great Events which is also brilliant.

Any of the Pixar movies in Blu Ray are amazing. If you are down with them that is.

G 09-22-2010 01:42 PM

Who is not down with Pixar movies

R U KIDDING?

Maybe we have different tastes

Anyway:

In Bruges
Up
Lost in Translation

Jeritron 09-22-2010 04:14 PM

They are definitely visually stunning. I think he means lots of colors and explosions though
