OK,
So the home theater will be set up eventually and will have great sound, video, ambiance, etc.
But what movie should I watch first?
Nevermind the wife and kid, I'm talking about me here!
Its a once and a lifetime opportunity of course and I am taking suggestions and wanting experiences!
Thanks,
Ben

Wow....I think I could answer home theater questions all day and night. But this question...now this one has me stumped. I wouldnt even know what to recommend.
Starwars, T2, The Matrix Trilogy, Dead Man Walking (gunshots), ......
You got me thinking. I too am about to re-setup a new system and dont know what I will indulge myself with....forgetting the kids and wife, of course!

I think I would go for Saving Private Ryan if I wanted something intense or Finding Nemo if I wanted something fun. Both will show off your system!

Let me suggest the Titanic.
That will ensure that any other movie you watch will be a very significant improvement.

Lord of the Rings Trilogy Extended versions in DTS.
A bit of everything in these movies. Great surround effects, tons of LFE, great pans, good center test with dialog as well as action coming out of the center, etc etc. . .that is if you are at all a fan of this kind of movie.

Yeah, but then you have to watch Master and Commander.
j/k, haven't seen it, just don't like Mr. Crowe.

Wait until Start Wars III comes out on DVD. If it’s half as good as the movie was, It’ll be a dandy.
If ya just can’t wait that long, for sound effects, I think Assault on Precinct 19 was pretty intense. Bogyman was cool too. We just watched that a couple nights ago. Scarred the piss out me a few times, and I’m not afraid of anything with hair on it.
