I thought this might be a fun ongoing thread. You get to see what others are watching and may find a new movie for your collection. New, old, color, B&W, foreign, concert or whatever...its all good.

I'll start with an excellent animated flick with rich detail and a good soundtrack: Tim Burton's Nine

Watched Oculus and Transendance.
Oculus had good LFE, but I thought overall it was a week movie. More of a classic 80's horror flick if you get my drift (freddy couger etc.)

Transcendance was actually pretty good, didn't expect it from the previews. Found it all around a solid rental.

Oh and I remember now that my wife and I watched Need for Speed last weekend. I wouldn't call this a great movie, but the audio and video are both fantastic.

We used part of the final race scene in our CEDIA sound room demo and it sounded spectacular. Worth watching just for the AV, and especially if you like cars.

Outstanding audio and the Bugatti Veyron had me salivating!

Godzilla takes a dump on Pacific rim times 1000!!!! Saw Pacific rim again for the second time and moo baby moo what a waste! Obviously Godzilla was way better, can't believe I wasted money on Pac rim!!
I thought both movies were great. Yes, one may have superior LFE but both rank up there.

Watched Godzilla last night, not a great story but WOW the LFE was off the scale! I had to turn my sub down.

Not sure how this idea of the flying creature came about...don't recall it in the original Godzilla....but maybe i just don't recall.

Watched Rover.....biggest waste of my time. The director vision or shooting style is great, but once again its another one of these half mute movies with a drawn out IMO pointless or non-exist-ant plot. I equate these plots to filming me driving to work each day in rush hour traffic, then filming me driving back home in rush hour traffic to watch me have dinner, and then just repeat and repeat for 2 1/2 hours.....Anyone interested...I'd be glad to film it and sell it to you for the great price of $19.99...:rofl:
For some reason I seem to be running into these type of films more frequently at the rental box.

Also watched Draft Day, thought it was an enjoyable movie, rental.

Ok. Got to watch 14 blades. I was the lucky winner! Thanks again!
I have to say, I hate subtitles. Now that that's outta the way, I really enjoyed this movie. A lot. Even laughed out loud a couple times.
The soundtrack to this movie is insane! No single digit bass drops, but every single driver(23), in my system was active almost the whole time. And the levels were high. Every sound is immediate, and up front(no matter the direction it came from). For this style of film it worked. Maybe not so much for others...I watched at MV-23. This was pretty good. Seemed louder than usual. Twice, I checked to see if dynamicEQ was on! Incidentally, I followed it up with "transformers ". (DVD) This was disappointingly in contrast to 14 blades soundtrack. I actually went up to -15 with dynamicEQ on. The whole thing seemed like it was in "night " mode. Especially after "blades ". Still love it though. For some reason,Shia lebouf has fallen from grace, but he affects me in the same dumb way Jonah Hill does. Can't
