It supposedly starts tomorrow (April 29th).

The only place this has been confirmed so far is Toronto, but hopefully it's country wide.

I was there tonight. Here are some of the ones I think I remember:

Underworld
Underworld Evolution
Casino Royale
Open Season
Donnie Brasco
The Fifth Element
Hellboy
Perfect Stranger
Vacancy
Black Hawk Down
Curse of the Golden Flower
Dracula
Final Fantasy
Ghost Rider
A Knight's Tale
Layer Cake
The Patriot
RE: Apocolypse
Rocky Balboa
Surf's Up
Warriors of Heaven and Earth

Some the prices though are a bit obscene to start out with (some are 39.99) so B1G1 isn't a great deal on a lot of them.

HMV was never cheap on their blu-rays.
But this is still a great sale.

Most discs at my HMV were $26.99, so 2 for 27 was a great deal,

I picked up Big Fish, Blackhawk Down, Hellboy & Identity for what works out to 13.50 each. Some of the other titles I wanted were 36-39.99 so I passed;
Nice to see HMV get in the game price wise. They've been pretty aggressive on DVD pricing (especially catalogue), so I hope they continue the trend with the Blu-ray.
