Working Girl | Location: | 1, 1 |
| Features: | 3-D Effect | | Description: | The opening credits as the film goes over Manhattan. The visual provides an almost floating 3-D effect, especially on a Plasma screen. This is due in part to how it was filmed, but DVD and Plasma really bring it home. | |

X-Men | Location: | C14 The Brotherhood attacks |
| Features: | Massive bass | | Description: | The scene where Magneto rips apart the train and halts Wolverine is filled with incredibly deep bass. The scene where Wolverine wakes up and explores the X-Men compound is also pretty cool as Professor X's voice comes from all different speakers. | |

Yellow Submarine | Location: | Any song track |
| Features: | Good test of speakers | | Description: | This DVD sounds great on any of the new mixes. I particularly like "Yellow Submarine" (Chp 4) for showing off surround effects and "Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band" (Chp 26) works the bass. | |
