I just received my free movie offers for buying my BD-P1400. I picked The Flight of the Phoenix. Wow does this movie have some serious LFE!! The storms in the desert, the plane crashes etc. were outstanding!!!! the movie was so/so/ok, but the sound effects during the storms etc. were outstanding. If you want to show off your EP500/600, this is the movie!

I couldn't find the other "best move for.." thread. We should have one sticky for that.

You should know better than that. That sort of thing doesn't matter around here! ;\)

The HD-DVD version of the Frighteners has an excellent LFE track. I just watched it last night and was very impressed. It's in DD+.

The movie itself was OK. Not great, not terrible. I would have given it a 3 out of 5. I like Dennis Quaid so it was OK for me.

Denis Quade was in it? We talking about the same movie? This one has Michael J Fox and Peter Jackson produced / directed it.

There is this point in Spider Man 3 (could I be anymore vague?) that has produced some of the lowest levels I have heard in a while. I think it was the point when the particulate matter thing-a-ma-gig was starting up.

I've said it a dozen times before in other threads, but Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World with Russell Crowe contains some wicked bass in the opening naval battle. The first battle between his ship and his enemy, the Acheron. When they exchange cannon fire, I have had pictures fall off the walls. Incredible, raw, and viscous bass that will not only test your sub but also your home construction.

Get yourself a copy of "The Haunting" with Liam Neeson and report back about the LFE there. That's the first DVD off the shelf when it's time to show off a bit.
