Well, I mean, to me the cinematography is very important in most films, right up there with those things you mentioned, so to me those movies would be totally worth it. But I see your point.
I guess the best you could do would be to just get movies that you don't own on DVD. Then you wouldn't have to justify the purchase to yourself. And if you like animations, there are some very good ones that look very impressive on Blu-Ray. I own Wall-E, Ratatoiulle, The Corpse Bride and can vouch for all of them.

Why don't you just rent movies? What the point of having a movie collection? They have no value.

So are you going to go rent a favorite movie over and over and over again? How about a good movie you'd like to show to family and friends(without time constraints)? There's more value than you think, and alot of people just like to own stuff, to be able to say "I have that".

I typically never watch a movie more than once. I disagree, I think we live in a society where many people buy things to say "I have that."
I haven't watched it on DVD, but "Kingdom of Heaven: Director's Cut" on Bluray is GORGEOUS IMO (I'm not a expert or fanboy on these things though so my opinion doesn't hold a lot of weight).
It's awesome when you can see the tiny and elegant carvings on the helmets of the Muslim soldiers. The grit, blood, broken pieces of chainmail, sweat, and pores really make you get a feeling that you're face to face with the people fighting. The sand, flowing fabric, city scenes, smoke from incense, etc is awesome.
You get the point, it was eye candy for me =)
Dark Knight
Planet Earth
300
Must haves.
Battlefield Bad Company 2 > Modern Warfare 2
Nobody has mentioned Die Hard. This is one of a hand full of movies that I have watched over and over again on VHS and DVD. This movie looks like it had been filmed yesterday on Blu Ray. It definitly adds a whole new experience to it.
My second suggestion would be Blade Runner. It looks great but it didn't blow me away as much as Die Hard did, and if you are going to get the greatest Blade Runner collection ever made, you might as well buy it on Blu Ray. I know you or anyone else here might not enjoy the same movies as myself, but these are at the moment my two favorite Blue Ray movies.
I'm still waiting for Jaws and Fight Club.
300.
If it isn't turnbased it isn't worth playing

And shepherds we shall be,
For Thee, my Lord, for Thee. Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, That our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command. So we shall flow a river forth to Thee And teeming with souls shall it ever be. In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritūs Sancti. -----The Boondock Saints
