In Reply to: Best 5 DVD's for surround sound? posted by akasper@a-g.com on January 25, 2001 at 10:52:29:
Well, considering that most movies don't make good use of it and I get pretty good surround-like effects from watching DVDs in 2-ch from my maggies, there is one that does come to mind. Das Boot! The ambience effects are just great... you almost feel like you are in a tin-can at the bottom of the ocean.... and then when a depth charge pops some rivets loose and they go zipping around... wow, I instinctively ducked! I dunno... 5th Element has some good surround effects in it, but I mostly watch that one in simple stereo mode too.... for Das Boot, I always turn on the surround.
Follow Ups:
My favorite referance disk is beleive it or not Prince of egypt
the sound is exelent.
Thanx... never saw Prince of Egypt (tend to not care much for Disneyesque things and like darker stuff, like the animated version of Spawn... live action version seemed more flippant and more like an FX exhibition, and also left out a lot of stuff that would have given it something like an NC-17 rating), but I'll give it a look.
