This sure would be nice, no more switching out DVD's and wasting time with menus, etc. Combination of Dolby Digital and DTS tracks.

Tracks:
1. Trailer: Texas Chainsaw Massacre
2. Trailer: Resident Evil 2
3. Trailer: Underworld
4. Mannheim Intro
5. Matrix Reloaded: Trinity falling shootout
6. T3: Truckflip
7. Matrix Reloaded: Semis Collide
8. Jackal: The Real Test
9. Pirates: Underwater Pendant Nuke
10. T3: Fuel Cell
11. Matrix Revolutions: Talking Face
12. Finding Nemo: Darla Glass Tap
13. Final Destination 2: Dentist
14. Monsters Inc.: 23-19
15. ROTK: Elephants
16. Final Destination 2: Big Wreck
17. Matrix: Lobby Shooting Spree
18. ROTK: Beacon
19. ROTK: Slinging Rocks

Sure, it may be a little rough with no segways, but there's nothing wrong with one chest-pounding scene after another.

I could just watch this one DVD over and over! :)

Regards,
PolkThug

    Add to that, Master and Commander, cannon battle sequences. Some of the cleanest, tightest bass I've ever felt.
    If...

    I agree with the above, maybe add the "Monsters Inc" sock explosion, "U-571" Depth charge attack, "Apollo 13" Liftoff sequence, as well as the M&C cannon attack.

    Then sell these out at cost to us around here...

    You need the opening battle scene from The Lord Of The Rings: Fellowship of the Ring where Sauron gets vanquished.

    You also need the cannon scene from Gettysburg!

    I'd agree for the most part but the bass on the movie is way overcooked and very generic sounding. Like the bass is there just to have bass, rather than adding anything specific to the scene.

    The LOTR ring drop is awesome as is Saruman's explosion in ROTK.

    I'll try to integrate something from that movie, trouble is, it is about 10 clicks louder than the other movies, so I don't want to blast anyone out of their seat.

    The extended version came out a while back. We can hope for a 3rd version in Superbit.

    Managed to incorporate it into the demo by means of the movie trailer, it seemed to be at normal volume.

    List updated.

    Add in Fantasia 2000 - Firebird Suite. Track 16. It's kinda long, but there are parts of this that will really test the dynamic range of a rig. A little too loud can downright frighten a first time viewer.
