I'm a bit late to this one, but I use VLC as my ONLY media player. I have Media Player Classic, the default Windows Media player and Quicktime installed, but I never use them. The only time I use Quicktime is to extract and audio or video track from a file.
VLC plays everything I throw at it. No problems. It takes a little fidgeting with getting the menu bar laid out in a useful way from default, but once you have your menu bar laid out the way you like, VLC is awesome.

I usually use the x32 version from here, http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ since the x64 is still listed as "experimental". It works fine and plays everything so I don't worry about it.
On the Media Player thing, I have Media Player Classic and Media Player Classic Home Cinema. Both are installed. Never use either one of them though.
It depends on what you want to play. If you want to play bluray or bluray3D you will need something that can handle commercial disks like PowerDVD from Cyberlink or Total Media Theater from Arcsoft. However I find VLC to be a little buggy with HD rips with the audio passed through. Windows Media Player plays these just fine as does the modern windows 8 video player.

To enable Bluray in VLC;
Download the files from here; http://vlc-bluray.whoknowsmy.name/ and put them in the folders indicated.
Also, starting with v2.0.5, VLC includes native support for Bluray
