    Home Theatre Demo DVD - need help!

    I am in the process of making a Home Theatre demo DVD that has all of the best sounding movie scenes for my home theatre system (for private use only). I am always having people over to show them my set up so I thought I would make a few disks that will really show it off well. I am tired of fast forwarding through DVD's get to the good parts (best sounding surround).

    So I need your help to figure out what to add to the DVD(s). As a disclaimer, I am using the DVDs I already own (I have a bunch) and I am using it for private use only.

    Anyway, here is what I have come up with so far (again, just looking for good scenes, not entire movies.

    1) THX theme (quited to very loud thing before many movies)
    2) Saving Private Ryan - opening scene
    3) Pearl Harbor - the attack on Pearl Harbor
    4) Titanic - when the boat sinks
    5) Matrix 3 - when the master robot says "What Do You Want" (very cool if you have a huge sub-woofer)
    6) Borne Supremacy - car chase scene
    7) Twister - opening scene
    8) Sword Fish - opening scene
    9) Apollo 13 - take off
    10) Armageddon - NYC meteor shower
    11) Cast Away - crash scene.

    That is about all I can think of right off the top of my head. Any suggestions would be great

    Thank,
    Flow

      Gragonheart - where Sean Connery (the dragon) flying around and talking to Dennis Quaid who is on a horse. As the dragon is flying around the horse you can hear the voice travel from speaker to speaker around the room.

        Lord of the Ring - Part 1.

        At the start there's this mass fighting scene. The point where Sauron (the big fucker in the armor) explodes...THAT's awesome if you have a nice woofer

          Nice setup you have pretty simliar to mine actually. Top Gun has a few kickass scenes in it. I would love to get your dvd ones you get it finished to show off for people here.
