    I saw a waterfall of Then Incredibles and there is one scene that dips to 5Hz. Batman Begins has one scene that showed 2Hz!

    It is the scene where Batman confronts the doctor and he uses a little of the doctor's own medicine on him.

    Ohhhh, yeah that scene was pretty bad ***. Have you seen the Initial D live action movie? Great use of surrounds and car noises.

    Hmmm, Killer bass movies. I don't think I know of any. There is a killer piranha movie but I don't think they are related to bass, and Jaws is a shark not a bass. There a several killer croc movies and they eat bass and there is that movie the frogs where a whole bunch of stuff goes crazy and starts killing but no bass. Nope I just don't know of a killer bass movies.

    Oh you meant bass not bass. Never mind

    I watched Superman Returns the other day. What a great demo disc, not just the sub but for the surrounds as well.

    I know this thread pops up repeatedly but I can't help chiming in. The 5 DVDs I put in my player when I want to show off some loud are as follows:

    1. LOTR: FOTR - Balrog, Mines of Moria
    2. U-571 - Depth charge scenes
    3. Matrix Revolutions - APU/ Sentinel Battle Scenes
    4. War of the Worlds - Tripod Emerging from the street
    5. SW: Attack of the Clones - Opening scene where Ambassador's ship is flying through the clouds on approach

    Default Mr. and Mrs. Smith

    There are some excellent Home Theater Demo disks out there...I use this site:

    http://www.demo-world.eu/demo-dvds/

    to read reviews on the different Demos...but then have to go to Ebay to actually buy one. Some of the bass in the demos just can't be beat. Another classic that everyone seems to use to test bass is Jurassic Park and the T-Rex scene.

    All that said...my favorite explosion after explosion movie is Mr. and Mrs. Smith. The sequences where they are trying to kill each other...and then the car chase are not only great for bass, but also totally entertaining.
