I just got Driven, and I love the music and colorfull picture. I use this one sometimes because the picture is so good. Gladiator outside battle scenes are also good ones.

would like to show off to friends - best flick?
I am just about done with my HT. But I have noticed that there is certainly quality differences in software. I would like some recommendations on great titles to show off with 
Some Ideas I have pulled from this site:
Crouching Tiger
Desperado
vertical limit
cast away
the beach
I would like my guests to experience an exciting movie, fun too watch, but also beautiful to look at.
thank you for all your help.

Fun and captivating story, beautiful to look at: Toy Story 2 and A Bug's Life would be at the top of my list. They have great & pretty visuals, good sound, and a great story, IMO. These movies i can watch again and again and again, and i can find very little, if anything, that i don't like about these movies.
I also like Titan A.E., it has some very good visuals as well, and the sound is pretty good too. Story-wise it is not as strong as the other two though i think.
The Matrix is a nice action flic, interesting story and has action scenes with cool visuals and sounds.
Star Wars Episode 1's Pod Race is pretty cool too i think. The sound is amazing, and the visuals on the big screen are pretty cool too. I'm not sure the entire movie would be as captivating though...
If you're into it, Final Fantasy is amazing visually.
Gladiator is a great "classic" type of movie. It has great imagery, good sound (DD and DTS), and the story is pretty captivating & interesting (and it's 2.35:1, which on my screen is better than 16:9 movies).
The Patriot (Mel Gibson) and Braveheart are good "classic" type movies too. Good story, good picture.
Have fun showing off that HT

I show off the movie "Cutaway" starring Tom Beringer and Ron Silver the rest are unknowns. The story involves Sky Diving using 'parasails' instead of old type parachutes. I never did this although I had my own hang glider, I bought it used the owner taught me how to fly it price $1,300 color Yellow. Being a TT driver pays well I could afford such frivolties.
Now when looking back I am glad I did what I did, not feeling sorry that I blew the chance.
Colorful and I do mean that word for all the chutes were orange, but the ground and ocean they are jumping over is breath taking. Jumping from 15,000 feet the camera men get a lot of steady-cam visuals the movie also has some jumping at night the sights of the city lights, swimming pools that are lit up are quite a sight coming down to. My 2¢ fellas, my pneumonia is letting up a tad, my doctor said next week you can spend more time 'out' of bed than in it and that's great news.
Basis for the film is drug smuggling, but this is a visually stunning movie to show off to your friends. I was in the 'stores' electric vehicle up at walmarts when I first seen the disc. I liked Tom Beringer so I bought it not knowing much about the movie, was I ever in for a treat.

Other than all the great titles hinted from the other messages, i'd add "Fight Club", "Tomorrow never dies", "The mask of Zorro", and (why not ), even "Predator" DTS and the new release of "Total recall". . "Terminator 2" from Artisan would be good too but consider theese last three basically have "older" kinds of soundtracks, so they won't provide such effects (on the rear, most) as the latest though being very crisp and powerful.
Have fun!

This movie is georgius on DVD. I am using my RCA F38310 as the HDTV I view it on my Sony CX860 (300) it's movie 209. I know it by heart, to me they were unknowns, especially the girl who played the character 'star'.
Yesterday I was watching "Timecop" with Ron Silvers as a bad guy to Jean Claude Van-Damme on HBO high def on cable. In the movie "Cutaway" he played a D.E.A. agent, the guy that went under cover I just couldn't place him. "Wufo" is just like "Jafo" in "Blue Thunder" nics for newbies.
Enjoy the film only don't get into watching every week or so like I did. It reminded me of my 'able' days and the foolish things I did an got away with when I was younger.
