edd_t Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 On saturday I had a demo of the home cinema I'm getting. The guy in the shop used a film where there was a room full of drums, and a chinese dude flicked a pebble at them and then a woman started doing some kung fu dancing in the middle sort of thing. so does anyone know the name of the film? Also, what other films should I get to annoy the neighbours with? I'll be trying out Gladiator, as the fight seen at the beginning should sound really good.

Muffleman Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Yeah House of flying daggers. The scene in Hero where Jet Li flies around and chops up all the bamboo makes quite a good noise. Er, if you know what scene I mean ! He lobs a little bowl of water in the air, flies in a circle and comes back to catch the bowl on his sword, then all the bamboo type things fall down.

Ark Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Black Hawk Down is supposed to use the 5.1 very well. Probably Saving Private Ryan too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muffleman Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 The .50 gun in Smoking Aces makes a good noise too, shame the film is crap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edd_t Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 Black Hawk Down is supposed to use the 5.1 very well. Probably Saving Private Ryan too. excellent, have them 2 already, so will be giving them a go too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keancy Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Independance day and Blade are nice and noisy in sections too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lukeyboy2k Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Black Hawk Down is supposed to use the 5.1 very well. Probably Saving Private Ryan too. 28 days later should be quite good. The bit near the end where the nasty soldier dudes get done over. The .50 gun in Smoking Aces makes a good noise too, shame the film is crap Alicia Keys all feisty and sweaty.

Lbm Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 I would Imagine all Star Wars films be quite loud and pleasing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustGav Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 Got to be top gun for me, may not be the best film storyline wise... but the sound effects in a home cinema are awesome, and the movie holds a spot for me because I first saw it on a home cinema system and got the bug.... Anybody want to find out when Top Gun was first out and make me feel REALLY old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edd_t Posted December 4, 2007 Author Share Posted December 4, 2007 cool will check them too. Oh and Top Gun was '86 I think. Wicked film Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbourner Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 What's the opening 'bomb' scene in Swordfish like? Keep meaning to see it in 5.1 but never get the chance! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedM Posted December 4, 2007 Share Posted December 4, 2007 A really good show-off piece is the awesome sound steering in Monsters Inc. The bit where they are in a huge chamber and doors are moving around on rails is really very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
