Unfortunately my only experience watching this movie was a pirated copy on my old HT system. For the most part I shy away from watching pirated copies because the sound quality is rarely even worth listening to.

By the remarks listed here I suppose I should rent it (well heck I might even be able to buy a used copy of t down at Hastings for $1.99) and watch W.O.W. in all it's glory.

Argon,
even without a sub, they are impressive scenes. I know I am missing stuff though. I recently watched the Ratatouille lightning strike scene on a system with an Ep500 and it was an experience for sure.

Agreed - on the 60s. I recently went without sub for a while. After I finally realized that I should set the 60s to Large - you get substantial bass on all but the lowest.

That movie was one of the first movies I watched once I got my sub. When the machines or whatever they are called get ready to squeak or talk or whatever they do I could feel the rouble like a train coming. Very cool.

I think somebody with multiple subs should do the plane crash scene and report back. Dual 800s?

I'm watching the movie right now. It sounds really good. I can't give a comparison to the DVD because it has been too long since I watched it and I do not have the same speakers hooked up as I did before.
