I see a difference more in animated movies that "real people" movies in CGI stuff like Cars, WallE, etc. I can say that when I say South Park Imagination Land in HD it BLEW away the normal SD picture on Comedy Central. All the little lines have zero jaggies.
Yeah, I saw The Simpsons Movie on display for Blu-ray at BB and it really was beautiful. I didn't think it would make a difference, but it really did. The only way I can explain it is that it looks cleaner. Lines are perfect with no aliasing and colors are bright/crisp. Sound was stereo on the TV, but being that it was a movie, I'm guessing it was improved as well.

I'm being ignorant here, but why do they release animation/cartoons on Blu-ray? Is there really that big of a difference?
And I'm talking about cell based animation, not that CGI stuff.
