I had a friend over and was completely blown away by the first few minutes of Ice Age- where the little Scrat guy jams his acorn into the ice. The living room literally shook, and the ice and wind sounds came from every direction in the room. This got me to thinking- what other DVDs can I use to really show off the capabilities of my home theater? I have 5.1 DTS Surround, which most home theater buffs have..
So far, I have found the Star Wars movies pretty cool, but the beginning of Ice Age is especially cool. Also, the THX flash at the beginning of Monsters, Inc. with the Cow noise machine was really cool. I've been told that Pearl Harbor is cool, but I don't have that one.
I welcome suggestions..
thanks,
Frank

Pearl Harbor is great during the dog fights. But, the movie is more a love story.

try the opening of toy story 2(real nice)and for a sub-woofer fiesta put in my favorite U-571 and hold onto your dentures(haha)also check out AIR FORCE ONE not bad a movie but the constant jet engine noise in the surrounds will have them asking for peanuts in no time.

The first twenty minutes or so of Saving Private Ryan are great. You here the bullets coming from all around you!

And of course there's always chapter 28 (or is it 29) of The Matrix!

Got to agree with e pereira, Blade 2's DTS track is fabulous (not listened to the DD yet). Also, if you want all your speakers going try JP3, Chapters 5 and 6 from the plane crash to the end of the TRex. That's what I'm using at the moment.
