Bought my wife a DVD player for xmas. I hear ya...I was reading the book on the remote and I was trippin out. there are all kinds of "viewing options." I do like the editors notes and all that. I bought her "A Knight's Tale". It's an entertaining movie. Just understand that it's a tongue-in-cheek approach to Canterbury Tales.

Got a DVD for X-mas also. Wife got me Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon and the Simpson's first season.
I'll do the right thing Out the door tomorrow first thing in the AM to buy Heat and The Matrix. I think I'll pick up Airplane and Airplane II too. That never gets old. Sherm |

"Saving Private Ryan" on DVD is just unbelievable. I'll have to agree with Paul on "The Matrix." And I FINALLY got "Heat" on DVD for Christmas this year! Woo!

All of the above, plus Terminator and T2, and Starship Troopers. Yes, I know it wasn't a great movie, but it's a fantastic "technical" DVD for trying out your 5.1...

Pink Floyd: THE WALL (Fantastic Sound!)
The Boondock Saints (If you can find it) Trainspotting (Mediocre) Tigerland (Mediocre) Red Dawn (Who can live without it?) Recommended (But already mentioned): Heat Saving Private Ryan Gladiator Matrix Patriot T2 Ronin Braveheart However, rather than buying all of these DVD's, I recommend buying a lot of ammo, and going to the range. These movies will only make you more of a couch-commando, even if you are a Five-0. I don't really like the 5.1 Dolby, I prefer DTS for some reason... I guess I'm just wierd. My father's THX Really kicks ass with good movies. -inuhbadnayburhood |

Soundwise...
Rules of Engagement...love that seaknight & huey formation..the 'nam firefight scenes are great too TopGun...okay it's an oldie....but made my neighbours ask me if I also saw that fighterplane doing lowlevel flights. T2UE..for the obvious reasons Pearl Harbour......okay, so they played history and bended it here and there. The split surround is absolutely great SW episode 1......that lightsabre buzzing around the room.... |

I just got Full Metal Jacket on DVD. I have most of the others you guys mentioned but the best sound goes to The 5th Element with Bruce Willis. I guess that I must get Ronin, what ever that is.

The remastered "Lawrence of Arabia"....
Excellent cinematograpy, filmed in 70mm color film and remastered. Musical Score is awesome too. You've never seen the vastness of the world until you see those gorgeous color shots in the desert. Lots of goodies on the DVD too. Just plain awesome. Rent or buy!!!!M4-AK |

I like to put my newer DVD's in, wait for the THX sound check, and watch my two-year old daugter run for cover. Scares the shit outta her.
I know, I know. But she'll pay me back when she's 16. [;)] |

Air Force 1 .... you hear the brass landing in the surround speakers...
As Good As It Gets... you hear the other conversation in the restaurant scene in the surround speakers... (ok it ain't weaponry related .. but it does show what the sound guys can do...) Ted... |

The Way of the Gun.
Great two man team tactics, particularly when they go into the Mexican villa after the bag-men. Ex-SEAL was technical adviser. Definitely a sleeper. I've loaned mine to a cop and it became an instant hit. He spent the next week at tac training talking about that film with the instructor, who also thought it was a great movie. A sleeper, so you'll never hear about it. The director is well known but wanted to make a "great" movie that pleased himself and not the critics. Lemme know what you think of it. |

Then I got it as a gift on DVD and it was a GOOD movie IMO. The DVD sounded excellent on 5.1 and the extras are great.[/blue] |
