HT Owners: What are your favorite movies or clips to show off your Home Theater

[long_time_DNC]

I think their farewell concert is even better sounding.

 

[dfergie]

I like them both about Equallly, except Farewell (which we all dissed when it was on NBCHD(piss poor audio mix?)) Is in HD so I give it a nod for that...My favorite song/mix out of the two is Hotel California off of Hell Freezes Over though...

 

[long_time_DNC]

I agree, the mix of Hotel California on HFO was better. Liked the harder edge of Farewell in some respects.

 

[dfergie]

The First 10 minutes or so of POTCDMC... lots of LFE...

 

[Paradox-SJ]

LOTR-Retur of the King ...final battle

 

[long_time_DNC]

That's part of the attraction to it, yep. More edgy guitar work too.

 

[dfergie]

I wish Open Range would show up again in the rotation now that we have HDD archiving...

 

[long_time_DNC]

I've got it on my EHD from before they downrezzed HDNet Movies. Kept it on my IHD for nearly a year. It's a huge file, but it looks spectacular.

 

[dfergie]

Envious... course I couldn't have transfered from the 921 anyway...

 

[dfergie]

Crossroads: Lindsey Buckingham and Little Big Town from MHD looks and sounds great!

 

[long_time_DNC]

Thanks for the tip! I'll need to check that out.

Yes...Farewell is very good too...and it's widescreen on the DVD version which is nice.

But I do agree on Hotel California...I really didn't like whatever that strange instrument they played in the background on Farewell.
