For me:

1st HD DVD was Sleepy Hollow in August 2006
1st Blu-Ray was The Devil's Rejects in February 2007


I remember that feeling when I bought that first HD DVD, very fun.

First movie was Aeon Flux because it seemed to have some of the best PQ reviews at the time I bought my player. I was ready to return my HD-A1 if HD didn't wow me enough. Needless to say I'm now addicted

Wow, how does one person have so many firsts.
I'm presumably jealous at the amount of other firsts you've had.

King Kong was the 1st HD-DVD I got (free with drive), still the only one I own at the moment and not watched it yet!
The 1st Blu-ray I bought was MI:III, I'll only buy region free Blu-ray films so I can import from the US as they are far to expensive in the UK

The first one I got was King Kong since it came bundled with the add on, but the first one I actually bought was World Trade Center for personal reasons.

Before I got my HD-DVD add-on and HDTV I bought Slither on HD-DVD combo since I figured I was going to eventually get it on HD-DVD. Since all the B&M stores were selling it for $35-40 this also became my first online purchase ever outside of eBay (got it for $27.99 at Target + $2.50 shipping).

No Blu-ray for me, yet. Call me when the players sell for HD-DVD's entry-level price and have fully-implemented 1.1 OS and onboard memory specs.
