Favorite HT demo scene from a movie?


What do others think the best scene from a movie is to demo an HT setup? I don't yet have a DVD player but my current VHS demos are both from Die Hard 3. The first is the store explosion in the first scene for sound staging and detail and the second is the dump trucks driving up to the other explosion site for deep bass. leo.

A scene that will give you an idea of detail, high frequency response, and low frequency response is the scene from Jurassic Park where the cast is caught in the vehicles during the power outage and the T-rex is about to make its first appearance. The rain offset by the low bass thump from the T-rex footstep works both ends of a system simultaneously. A really good system will put the footstep under the rain which is just sizzling on the metal car surfaces & windows.

True Lies has some good surround sequences.

Both of the newly remastered Terminator movies have good surround sequences.

The scene in Lawrence of Arabia where the airplane comes out of the canyon is really fun as it approaches and flies past overhead transitioning from the front speakers to the rear and then going off into the distance.
