If the detail in the source material isnt fine enough to be captured in 1080, then there will be no significant differences. Using only one source BD movie to compare is being lazy.. use multiple movies and include a standard test pattern.
And, i can notice a difference (786 vs 1080) on my 40 inch 1080p LCD with the feed coming from a PC... the difference is real. And, so just about resolution, but, gradations from light to dark which improves contrast.
And, the proper test is look at the different resolutions on the same panel (or from the same range from the same manufacturer). Otherwise, there are too many confounding issues that will influence the result (contrast etc).
