A full 1080p setup is kinda like a second monitor for your computer. Before you have it you really wonder if it's all that necessary since what you have works fine, but then when you get it you wonder how you ever possibly coped before.
For a good portion of movies, is it worth the cost? Not particularly. But for the movies that take full advantage of HD, oh hell yes it's worth it. Once you go HD it's hard to go back even if you're just watching a silly comedy. I grit my teeth and bear it through watching upscaled dvds, but given the chance I will always watch a movie in HD no matter what it is. It's even to the point where unless it's something so visually stunning like Avatar, I'd rather watch a movie at home instead of the theater.
For the recommendations, I would also add:
Monsters Inc.
Cargo
Sunshine
Ratatouille
