Lets list down all the movies, that shake the room, rattle the windows, take the juice out of our HTS and wake up the neighbours. These are some that I recommend

- Day after tomorrow
- LOTR- all
- Saving Private Ryan
- War of the Worlds

They should have atleast 4-5 scenes rattling you.

Good call on Titan AE. Lots of LFE and a great DTS track. The ice field scene and the opening scene...

Ghost In The Shell 2: Innocence (Japanese w/subtitles only). Amazing sound throughout.

Star Wars Ep1-3.

The Haunting DTS-ES.

Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon Superbit

Hero DTS

And, I am about to receive Cecil B. DeMille's epic "The Ten Commandments" tomorrow (Yul Brynner, Charlton Heston, Edward G. Robinson, Vincent Price, John Carradine, etc.). 50th anniversary edition with surround. If I'm impressed, I'll let you know.

Actually, I hate monkeys. They throw poop and carry aids. I just like big CGI monkeys.

Don't forget about Terminator 3 - Rise of the machines. very lfe heavy.

Also, there's some good stuff in End Of Days, though the movie itself is kind of weak.

New movie to add to list:- Exorcism of Emily Rose.
Awesome sound throughout, deepest sound I have ever heard - in fact I had to turn my subwoofer down a couple of notches (thats a first).
Good movie too!!

Some of the suggestions in this thread are excellent, while others were just 'ok' IMO....

These are a few that I didnt notice as already being mentioned, that I think fit the 'excellent' criteria for sound.

Batman Begins
Incredibles
Spiderman1&2
Chronicles of Riddick
X-men2
