I've had this experience as well. The Best Buy across the street has a very good HDTV/Blu-Ray set up and the last two movies I've seen there (Transformers and Pirates 3) I quite honestly had this reaction:

"Oh my god. It looks so good that it looks like crap!"

I agree that for me the quality step up from standard TV to HDTV (particularly for sports) is phenomenal but the DVD to HD step up doesn't particularly wow me.
