No, the super lycan is more of a room pressure thing where it feels like the room is breathing. The chopper scene in Total recall was more of a "shake the whole room" sensation.
I cant remember the scene in U:A that I thought of :/

Guess I like the sub 10hz stuff then...

Yes, and here is a closer look...

. I agree. Very disappointing.

Another scene thats good is when he firsts gets into the arena.

I also liked dredd. The interogation scene from dredd has a strong 15 and 16hz tone which gets louder through the scene, Plus it looks like content under 10hz! which is not shown accurately due to my hardware limitations. also heads up on Man with the Iron Fists strong content to and below 20hz.

Graph starts right after "Does that sound like overkill to you?"



a louder more accurate graph reveals a 8 and 7hz tone. too bad its -40db on my system tongue.gif

I had seen it when it first came out, but I just finally got my theater to be able to get some bass out of it.

Definitely, I never get tired of the scene when he first enters the grid from the arcade, to riding the giant staples, to the white latex girls ("he's different"), and the arena. My goto demo scene.

Yeah, that interrogation scene in Dredd had my couch flapping around for what seemed like 15-20 seconds. Pretty sweet.

In my room the sub 10hz tone was significant. Not sure whats on the disc though as I cant measure that low. Anyone able to get an confirmed accurate graph of it?

I am really looking forward to "Looper" and "Dredd". Both movies look to be reference type material from what I gather.

I did not see this anywhere on the list, but has anyone had a chance to watch the anniversary edition of Backdraft on BD yet. On www.blu-ray.com they talk it up pretty good and as a kid this was one of the favorite movies and would love to get it again to relive my youth.

^^Looks like a no-brainer purchase for you, if it's a favorite of yours! Work your new Rythmik!

Yeah, I just placed the order with Amazon. Can't wait to relive this movie with the updated picture and lossless audio track.

Any one else experiencing audio dropouts during playback of the 2012 version of the Total Recall blu-ray? At first I thought I must have purchased a defective disc because every other blu-ray disc I have played in my Oppo bdp-93 has played without any problem. I exchanged the blu-ray at Best Buy for a new one, but I am having the same audio dropout issue with the new one! Interestingly, when I rewind the blu-ray to attempt to replay the audio dropout, there is none. I also checked all cables to be sure of a good connection, and everything is solid. I have played several blu-ray discs before and after both Total Recall discs, with no problems. I also checked both discs for any obvious signs of damage, but none was visible. Any thoughts on what the cause is of the dropouts? Thanks.

Jeff.

I noticed this at least 3 times during the movie.

Many people have seen audio problems with Total Recall Blu-Ray


some people have changed from bitstream to lpcm to help but bottom line is the disc is screwed up

normally, bitstream is ok and works

Yes, I rented TR and the audio was messed up.
Also, this was the only BD ever for me to cause voice syncing issues.
There seemed to be a delay from when someone was talking and the lips moving.

Found the same issue with the rental DVD this evening - happened six times. The disc itself was in excellent shape yet.

This really sucks, I purchased this movie (blind buy for me) and I like it a lot. But the audio issue is very annoying.

Only workaround that I found was to go back to the beginning of each chapter to force the audio to re-sync.

So, for the buyers of this movie, what are the options?

Most people report that switching over to LPCM on the Blu-Ray helps. As for the DVD, it doesn't seem to be quite as big of an issue... haven't seen too many other reports of issues with it.

Either way, this movie isn't on my "buy" list. It almost put me to sleep. It's not a terrible movie, I just found it rather bland and unmemorable.

Finally got around to wrapping up Return of the King on the LoTR Extended Edition. Great bass and all around soundtrack! Loved the Mt Doom portions.

Or switch the Blu-ray player to PCM, that's what I did and it worked for me.

I'll try that. I had low expectations on this movie after several reviews, so I guess that help me out to enjoy it more...........I guess?

Has anyone here got an advance copy of Dredd?
From the reviews I've read of the BD, the LFE in this flick is off the charts great!

Opinions will vary on this one like they do with every movie. There were a few good scenes that rocked the foundation, but I wouldn't say the LFE's were off the charts. Dredd is similar to Hunger Games, where it isn't loaded with LFE moments, but when it does happen there good ones.
