    Did you run the 25 Hz tune for Hellboy?

    I'll be watching it tonight........

    Yes - I like it at 25Hz. I set the PB2 on end with the ports firing up and the bass fills the entire room instead of half. Between that and this HellBoy movie I was amazed at how deep and clean the bass was - except now it was a bit more audiable and hard FELT. I'm sure you will report back on the quality of the bass in this movie. I just think the LFE track was very well done.
    Those upward firing ports may be what makes the cylinders sound really good..............

    Finally watched it last night.

    PQ is great, SQ is great. Was disappointed the soundtrack isn't DD-EX (since the trailer IS).

    I'm mixed on the movie. The plot was unfocused at times, and had that simplistic "save the world from the evil ****'s" flavor. It clearly catered to the less sophisticated and younger audience at times.

    The PG-13 rating mandated way too much of that bloodless cartoon violence - like when the sword assassin kills five security guards and there is no blood on the floor or his sword.

    Special FX and CGI was very good - no complaints there.

    Ron Pearlman saved the movie by bringing some much needed dimension and depth to the Hellboy part.

    HB was WAY better than that cornball Van Helsing, and I would rank it about par with Hulk, Spiderman, and Daredevil but still not close to Underworld or Blade II (if you want to group all of these movies into a loose fitting genre).

    Not to jump too far off topic, but I watched Underworld last week, and it was great. That's all.....

    Sorry it took a while to get back in touch with you Brettw22. I hope I never have to do either...:D but if for some reason I had to, I guess I'd have to rechannel it all over again.:eek:
