As some of you may know, we have just moved house. Some things get left behind and prioritised.
Next on the agenda is finishing the theatre room. Never had a proper setup, so am now looking for a real experience to enjoy the first setup?
Looking for suggestions?

Star Wars ep4?
Avatar?
Jaws?
Jurasic Park?
Lord of the rings?
Game of Thrones?
Syd vs Hawks GF?

Some good suggestions you posted there Syd already. Saving Private Ryan is another good one especially the beginning with the surround sound cranked up.

'We had a band powerful enough to turn goat piss into gasoline.'

Crank that shower UP!

BTW for those playing at home ...Joliet is where it's at for Thee Atre experience!.

Jukes

Mr Nobody, greatest movie of all time.

Yes this ^^^^
This was the movie we first watched on our first proper setup it is great.

Avatar is a good one as well
Super 8 is another that is awesome on surround sound
2012
Cloverfield
Independence Day




Mr.Craig

What about a concert DVD? That'd be a good way to show off both the sound setup and tv.

i really like the fast and the furious movies with surround sound when they are racing etc

and "Driven" to especially when they are racing through the streets

oh yeah and "Top Gun" and "Gone in Sixty Seconds"

Jaws and Jurassic Park would be cool as listed in the OP.

The Matrix and Pirates of the Caribbean films would be pretty cool if you enjoy them.
