It's also a really, really good movie.
Not sure what parts you want explained. The top of that post explains the peak hold and average trace charts, and how they're used to determine the scores of the movies. Those graphs' axes are labeled, so it's really self-explanatory.
If you're talking about the graphs of individual scenes of the movies, here's an example taking one of bossobass's images from databass to illustrate the various components:

The recording of the graph starts at the bottom, ends at the top, with 5 second increments listed on the left hand side. The intensity level is pretty self-explanatory - but this is a common point of departure when comparing graphs from different people, so pay particular attention to their intensity color palette. The right signal level should never show something that looks like you can draw a straight line down it, as that would indicate clipping (another important thing to look for when comparing graphs).
The top shows the peak and avg. levels throughout the selected clip, at the frequency indicated (left is lower, right is higher frequency). The frequency also applies to the graph with all the color splotches (this is the part we typically care about) - the graph displays from DC (0hz) to 120hz, though in reality I think his chain only measures 2hz to 120hz. That color-filled portion of the window shows us, over the length of the clip, what frequency (hz) and at what intensity (-dB from the individual user's reference level) the bass content occurs.
In this particular graph, there are no effects that are very intense. It looks like the hottest effects are around -18dB. Generally, graphs from the same person are comparable (assuming they keep their setup the same), so comparing the graphs from different movies in the data-bass.com thread is apples-to-apples.
Hope that helps!

Thanks for the explanation
