i went full HD just before christmas. panny 42" plasma, panny blu-ray, yamaha 7.1 HD amp, infinity 2x5.1 surround speakers (yes that 2 subs and 10 speakers) and virgin HD. the sound is where its at with blu-ray as picture quality can vary a LOT, some movies are breathtaking but others look just like DVD i have even had one that looked like good vhs.

was it worth all that cash.. hell yes, much more enjoyable experience.

I agree with the comments made here, it does depend on the film being watched. As a choice I would save my money for better things, say for instance a good surround system.

Blu ray to me just highlighted faults with make up, hair, special effects, to the point that it sometimes ruined my viewing of films.

perfect example i have come across recently was Alien (cleaned up) Directors cut, although only on up-scaled DVD the it took away most of the atmosphere of the movie. but Bladerunner on blu-ray was just simply stunning.
