If you have a system that can do LOUD and CLEAN at the same time, (most can't, mine = not quite) then the little part where Mr. T Rex roars into the camera during the car crush scene is reeeely good. Not necessarily for bass, but for sheer pee-your-pants loudness.

Assuming your referring to the new WOTW. This is true! I watched this movie last summer through my Altecs and even at moderate volume the woofers cones looked like they were gonna pop out of their frames during those lightning strikes! I backed the volume WAY down after that!

XXX - the movie - Motorcycles, explosions and helicopters give the sub a nearly non-stop workout.

Same here exept I was using my RS-1080 through 4 JBL studio's with my bass set at 3+,bass EQ on and the bass range bumped up to about 50%. I had the floor shaking like I had never heard music sound that hard before.Good movie,but I had to ease up on the knob though.A nother good one I had the house shaking to the othernight was Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift.Awsome movie also.

Not a good movie but the first 10 minutes of Lost In Space is pretty impressive sound wise.

You guys missed Enemy at the gates. A recent WW2 war movie Russian and German snipers battle it out) with some terrific battle scenes near the beginning and end plus a few bombing runs in the middle. Time to crank it!

If you want sub effects at an appropriate level for the scene (rather than just always loud), try Pirates of the Caribbean - really done right IMHO

My kids have all the Jurassic movies. It's true, my Sunfire JR. has been known to literally leap from it's perch during certain stomps.

Ice Age, the beginning sequence with the squirrel and the glacier cracking. Nice.
But the Balrog scene is a definative one for the reference books.
