Bummer! Thanks for the report. I will just stick with the original plan and rent instead of buy.

Seems so, but I suspect most of them are boring.
I think this one could be classified as a action movie of sorts, the storm comes along just when you are about to fall asleep, end then there is the shark..

We have a home theater business next to our office and I stopped by to talk about calibrating my subs. He suggested that I set my speakers at 75 db and to try my subs at three settings to see what I like. He suggested setting them at 75, then 78, then 82. I tried 82 db and put on Master & Commander. The first canon ball scared the crap out of me. I tried it with Chris Botti music and 82 was too hot. I tried 75 and settled on 78 db. I tried out WOTW and 78 db sounded incredible on the thunder scenes. I can't wait for Skyfall.

I have a minor request. On Call of Duty B-ops 2. They have the EMP Grenade and the EMP perk. When you throw the grenade close to yourself or its thrown at you. You get low explosion that you feel then hear. Also with the EMP perk but its much stronger. I set my audio options to low freq on the game. Anyway, is some one able to measure these and get a graph please? Its one of those "holy crap, my rooms gonna collapse"! I know its not a movie but a graph would be nice. Thanks guys.

It has two scenes that I thought were pretty good and had a lot of bass. The train crash, as you mentioned, and when the big house blows up. Would love to see some graphs on these two scenes.

Picked up handful of new rays this past week. Looper was one and It has some really nice LFE, not to mention a really good flick, one of the best movies I seen in some time, sort of along the lines of Inception in the fact that it made you think and oddly enough Joseph Gordon -Levitt was casted.

Also got the Mummy trilogy, Sherlock Homes and Dread. . Never seen any of them, but all seem to be listed in the 4 star range.

Just watched The Man with the Iron Fist. It had some great bass sweeps during some of the action scenes you don't hear very often. I loved the whole mix. Very active surrounds. Awesome action too.

Sorry I was editing and adding to my last post when you replied. It had some good fight scenes and a simple revenge plot. Nothing to special but a good renter if you like that kind of flick.

Any chance you guys could show a bit of respect to the people who haven't had the chance to watch Skyfall yet, and use spoilers?

Lol, I haven't seen Skyfall either but who cares, I'm just enjoying the others comments here about all the kickass bass parts in the movies:) I'll eventually wait til movies go on sale at $7.99, maybe buy them at $10.99 if they have a 5 STAR soundtrack rating.smile.gif

Josay, dude, you have to check out the Battlefield Bad Company 2 game. Somewhere in the game there's a HUGE BOMBASTIC BLAST that goes off when a satellite crashes.. LOL, I was playing the game around 1 AM & I had my system turned up pretty good and wasn't expecting the blast. It literally shook my house and I wouldn't doubt it alarmed some of the neighborhood.rolleyes.gif PS Check out episode11 at 6:47 for the explosion. Lol, love Pvt. Haggart's comment afterwards, "that is,_ the greatest thing_ I have ever_ seen, in my entire_ life".

You can see the explosion on the trailers biggrin.gif my bad though for those who haven't seen it. It's been out (well in theaters that is lol) for a few months so I thought it was ok not to use the spoiler tags.

Talking about the bass in a train crash and a house explosion is hardly giving the movie away.

I've actually always liked the the sound on the battlefield series. Ill have to revisit that game and experience that level.When I first played BF2 bc I didn't have my Empire sub.
On the black ops however, its my favorite demo for friends. This EMP grenade or perk literally shakes everything. But you have to set your audio settings In game to boost low freq. You have to try it. I can seriously not play the game and just do EMP grenades all day!:-D

A place you go to when you want to pay double for confections and audition multiple cellphone ringtones at once.

Or if you like soda-covered sticky floors where the kid behind you keeps kicking your chair and their parents pretend they don't see it.

Or even when there are plenty of seats available and the guy with massive BO has to sit right eside you. Just as you get up to move the theater packs up.

And somehow a tall dude always happens to be sitting right in front of you in a packed theater. There is no where to move so you have to lean close to the strong BO guy for a chance to even see more than 50% of the screen.

I just finished watching "Knowing" and was definitely impressed with the overall soundtrack. There are 2 scenes that are right up there with other top reference scenes available to us all. Most are familiar with the plane scene, but the final flare scene is jaw dropping.

It definitely needs to be on the next reference demo disc.
