This flick is currently only on Blu-Ray in the US, however xploitedcinema.com is supposed to be receiving a shipment of this movie from Poland that will work fine with HD DVD players within a month or so.

That aside, I'd recommend:
300
Bourne Idenity
Bourne Supremacy
Smoking Aces
Black Snake Moan
Shooter
Corpse Bride
The Ultimate Matrix Collection or The Complete Matrix Trilogy if extras arent your thing
Pitch Black
The Chronicles of Riddick (sequel to Pitch Black)
Children of Men
Mission Impossible 3
Flags of Our Fathers
Sands of Iwo Jima
Training Day
Wolf Creek
The Departed
V for Vendetta
Living Landscapes: The Worlds Most Beautiful Places (based on your ownership of Planet Earth & Chronos - get Chronos if you dont have it!)
Nature's Journey
Serenity
Lucky # Slevin
Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow
A Scanner Darkly

Now IMO, every film gets benefit from being HD DVD and compression artifacts are very rarely found. So even the ones lower ranked on that thread will look significantly better than its DVD counterpart. That thread simply tells you how much better based on the quality of the master used for encoding.

Remember to update your firmware if your XBOX 360 isnt connected online (and why not??!)

Also, if you want I could bring over a bunch of movies (I have most of the popular ones) and you can check out how they look before you buy 'em!
