You get what the filmmakers originally intended for movie theaters, pure, original quality - not what cheapskate movie studios thought would "suffice" for VHS/DVD releases.
Sure, stories might still suck, but it's awfully nice to get distracted by the pretty pictures.

Watch your mouth!
Zombie Strippers would have been awesome in normal def as well.
But the thing with me at least is that hi def, makes the image really vibrant which is why I think some movies benefit more than others.
Like I have the Die Hard Collection on blu-ray, and it really doesn't do much for the first to movies since they are pretty dark since at night and all.
Compare to say Dr. No which is almost 50 years old, but it has vibrant colors because outdoors, and Blu-ray actually enhances the quality. It looks wonderful. Most of the Bond movies do.
As for me, as stated in the PS3 thread, thus far my top 3 blu rays would have to be
-The Dark Knight, the imax shots have to be seen to believe.
-Sin City, the comic book colors really come to life and its a treat for the eyes.
-Casino Royale, mix hi-def with Bond's exotic locations and you get on hell of a movie.
