I'd keep King Kong. Portions of it have SUCH well defined bass that it's worthy of the list.

It's an ok movie but some scenes do get intense like the waterfall chart I posted. Has that Silent Hill sound to it, very creepy. Also worth mentioning, there is a scene where you see Eva's booby!

Audio represents at least 80% of any movie experience.....

Try to watch a movie on the TV-speakers - never again.

I don't agree with removing:

King Kong
Casino Royale
U-571


I loved the intro for Casino, was pretty cool with all the jumping between buildings and then the explosion in the courtyard.

King Kong had lots of bass, maybe not very low but lots.

The rest I dont remember.

On a side note, once all this "top 50" gets sorted out, I'd like to rank the movies on a scale of 5 stars. 5 being Bass heavy and 1 being bass light.

i agree that there are others that should go before King-Kong and U-571...the depth charges are used as reference for a lot of people...also...didn't the first matrix have some pretty sick bass?? Also, if you wanna feel like a kid but also have utterly stupid amounts of bass...watch Happily Never After...there is some ridiculous stuff in there...

I havent seen close encounters or monster house, but thats my opinion on the list to remove

How can anyone that has seen U-571 say to remove it from ANY best of bass movie list?

They are all deserving. Why not just alter the concept and call it a best of the best "Hall of Fame" rather than just locking in on an arbitrary number. New ones will come out that deserve inclusion too, but that doesn't mean the older ones are any less worthy as demo material. Just maintain this list's high standards and let it slowly grow as warranted.

I'm not a big fan of the bass in Matrix, it's OK, but how many of you use that movie to demo your bass, I sure don't.

Close Encounters is another one, until the end there is no real bass in that movie that I would demo - great movie though.

To remove 4 I would remove the following

Close Encounters
Matrix
DareDevil
The Fast and The Furious: Tokyo Drift

There's better bass movies out there than those IMO, but hey, only because you gotta drop 4.

I like this idea better than a top 50 or top 100

Now the hard part is to come...rating them. Theres around 500 movies on the whole list.

It does? I've only seen it once on the movie channel - didn't like it much. Now I'm thinking about renting the thing. I just thought the movie was terrible. You sure there aren't any other movies out there with bass as good but watchable?

well i can agreed with the really low stuff in daredevil...pretty impressive stuff. I thought Fast and Furious had some nice bass throughout....while it is more music orientated...some of the racing stuff was great...maybe just me Ill still use the Balrog scene from LOTR to literally scare people I find it hard to get away from the top ten's for reference...nothing else really gets played!

I think the only real way to settle what should be in the top lists is some kind of waterfall shoot out

Playing around with a waterfall of a song by Bass Mekanik.

The song is Machine Melt. This is the first two minutes of the song. It has some good bass at 20-30 Hz.

DrPainMD, I hope it's okay to post this here. I just wanted to see how it looked.

Why don't you make a thread for music waterfalls or some sub section in this thread. I like to show more music, there are tons of movies already, but no one is showing music waterfalls.

The following get 5 stars for BASS from me:
- Titan A.E.
- Domino

Also, I saw the following wasn't on the list, I give it 3 stars for BASS:
- Stealth

I would bump Superman Returns down to 3 stars.

Man on Fire gets at least 4, maybe even 5 stars.
