I think I'll stick with a 1000kbps bitrate as there is little sacrifice in video quality from 1500, but a nice reduction in file size.
For me, at least, a 1Gb file for a movie is fine, and waiting 45 mins for it to convert is also ok.
YMMV.

Fabolous - if your video has a lot of movement and you want better quality, doing a 2-pass encode should increase the quality of the final video (but will increase encoding time by about 50%)
