Everyone has their favorite scenes, whether it's to check your settings, impress your friends, or just to enjoy!
I happen to like the Hunger Games' cannon shot. There's great ambience, dialog, and all of a sudden BOOM!
-
One of the scenes I really enjoy is the train crash scene in Super 8...
-
So many to choose from -
Gravity - quite a few that really show off the contrast of this projector.
Lucy - first 5 minutes, last 5 minutes.
Fury - Tiger tank battle scene - great subwoofer demo ( picture looks good too ).
Star Wars : The Force Awakens - several.
Spy - about the cleanest sharpest Blu Ray I've seen.
Edge of Tomorrow - great picture, room shaking audio.
Oblivion - same as above.
Lone Survivor - also great picture, room shaking audio.
-
for bass its the ending fight scene in TIH
just rewatched edge of tomorrow....damn that movie is bass insane!
-
for family friendly...the opening to toystory 2 has been a go to since it was first released on DVD
-
More great suggestions for me to revisit movies for demos.

Millennium falcon flies in the new Star Wars
Any scene in mad max fury road
Darla tapping the glass in finding nemo

The start of Operation Valkyrie, the nazi flag waving right in front of the camera, its a hardcore test on color polution in and out of black, but if its working its very cool, and then later where they are in Africa and the plains attack.

I've been wanting to watch this movie again ( I liked it, even if the critics did not ). Thanks for the reminder, and another reason to watch it !
-
Going back a bit here.....The early scene in Transformers (the first one) where the first Decepticon (the Apache chopper) transforms....Great highs, mids, lows...It's all over the place. Loud, looks cool, and I'm like, "Daaaaaang"! Every time!

are we talking about the Tom cruise movie?

For Atmos content:
- Star Trek Into Darkness- the opening scene through the part where Kirk jumps off the cliff into the water
- Unbroken - see the scene with the full-tilt bombing run - most to all channels have content. A fantastic selling point for high channel content with a Trinnov Altitude
- Lucy - I'll go with the beginning and end as well
Music with the upmixer of choice (75/25 DSU vs. Neural:X; it's not ALL movies LOL)
- Marcus Miller's bass on "The Panther", from Ramsey Lewis Legends of Jazz
- Bruce Springsteen's "Bobby Jean" on Live from Hyde Park, for the rich mix of guitars, bass, keyboards and the Big Man on sax
- Shakira's "Whenever, Wherever" for, ahem, the soundstage and guitars
-
Music is the main reason behind my upgrade to the A3060. So when reading forum material, it's almost always on. And once in a while something reaches out and snatches me away from the reading. Just now it is Alison Krauss and Robert Plant "Please Read the Letter that I Wrote".

That's the one.

Somehow I missed most of the posts that start this thread but saw the "Bobby Jean" reference. For a video/audio treat, I love the train car scene in "The Lone Ranger" where he is sitting as the bandits begin their attack. First you hear (over behind MLP right shoulder) the galloping horses, then the big bump as a bandit jumps on the roof followed by his footsteps across the "ceiling" front to rear. In my living room, this is especially spectacular as my vaulted ceiling is actually above the foot stomps which cross mid-air at about 8 ft.
And, btw, this is with a DTS HD MA mastered BR -- not Atmos or DTS:X. Oh the wonders of Neural:X and "Enhanced" DSP on the A3060!
-
Super 8 is KILLER guys and that train wreck gets everyone's immediate "ATTENTION".
Old thread but IMHO worthy of a New Post. ;)

Open Range. I know this is an old movie, but the thunder storm approaching and then the rain falling always seem to have my friends thinking it is raining inside.

Hero has a great scene like that, with rain.
