    Go to the AVS forum under subwoofers, they have a master list of bass in movies there...I believe Cloverfield is still no.1

    For overall HT surround I like Master and Commander with Russell Crowe. It's a cool immersive audio experience with the ship creaking all around you, and plenty of bass in the battle scenes.

    The depth charge scenes are enough to make my dog whine and hide. Hehe.

    BATTLE L.A. is my choice! Incredible sub effect, gun shots, explosions are LOUD and clean... and action all time!

    TRON: Legacy is great in 5.1 and the movie soundtrack is great 2-channel (stereo) demo. Lots of others, but that one comes to mind first.
