THX is a stamp of approval by Lucasfilm, but sometimes it seems like the label just gets thrown around. Case in point. Highlander: 10th Anniversary Ed DVD is THX certified but the video is horrendous, and the audio was unimpressive.

my favorite (action) THX DVDs:
T2
Armageddon: CC
ID4
XMen

Hellraiser 2 is also pretty good!

I would think that Top Gun would be pretty cool. The dog fights anyway :)

All I can think of is the intro to Seven. You need a really good sub to feel the ultra low bass.

I almost sh17 my self the first time I watched it.

Damn. That is quite the image there bit ;)

Seven is certainly a badass flick though.

What's SE7EN about fellas? From the looks of the cover I shied away from it. But eh, I'll prolly hear something along the lines of "You can't judge a book by its cover" from one of ya eh ;) So tell me, what's it about?

BTW, soon to be getting MI2 also, is it as good as MI1?

I know many here love 7 but I hated it. Probably because I can't stand brad pitt. Still the movie didn't entertain me at all. It's about a serial killer if I remember correctly.

MI2 either, it was even worse than the first one.

hehe, such negativety eh. Armageddon is another that had great sounds for sure. Especially if you like aerosmith as I do. And get Heat, you'll feel it. ;)
