- Saving Private Ryan = Omaha Beach battle - very good to showcase surround speakers.
- GI Joe Rise of the Cobra = Opening Scene  - Lots of LF to shake the whole room.

My current favourite is TRON LEGACY, both for its amazing visuals and also for its bombastic audio and subliminal soundtrack.

My personal favorites for demoing  ;D

1.) Transformers Revenge of the Fallen (Big Screen Edition) - Forest Battle scene, Imax BIG picture!! the sound of clashing robots and the sound of the forest being torn to bits is always a delight for viewers.
The only good scene in Transformers 2 IMO  :D

2.) The Dark Knight - pretty much every big action scene, the opening sequence, batman kidnaps Lao and the bat-bike scene.

3.) Master & Commander - The final battle, cannons non-stop blasting each other.

Exactly Sir,

Had some relatives who used to sell HT equipment, and this was one of the Laser Discs they would use to encourage customers to get into the hobby.  Priceless ;)
