    Movie Video Audio Showcase

    Interstellar - This movie is an A+ in all three categories. The visuals are stunning, great use of sound stage even though it's only a 5.1 sound track, and it's a bass monster. Not sure on a demo scene from it. Maybe when they first see the wormhole and go through it. Cool visual that got...

    Movie Video Audio Showcase

    Couple for tonight. BTW, I'm not touching movies that have been mentioned by others since they're already known. I'll backfill on them later on. Battle: Los Angeles - BD - Decent visuals. This one is a bass monster though. One of the top movies ever for rattling you throughout it. Not too...

    Civil War

    I hadn't realized this was an Alex Garland movie until now. I was just checking something else on him and saw it as an upcoming for him. That's making me a bit more excited about this now. Loved him with Ex Machina and Annihilation.

    Movie Video Audio Showcase

    First post with movies. Instead of doing a big list I'm going to start out by just doing a few at a time. It's easier to get a minute here and there than to do a mega post. Everything that I post about movies in this thread is strictly on audio and video. I'm not commenting here on the...

    Movie Video Audio Showcase

    When you get ready to buy take a look at projectorscreen.com. I bought both my PJ and screen through them. Brian, the owner, is a good guy and post regularly on AVS. I DMed him when I was getting ready to buy. We went through a bunch of questions on what I was looking for and my room...

    Movie Video Audio Showcase

    I'm the opposite. I find audio easier but that's largely because I don't have the equipment to do a proper video calibration and haven't looked to spend the couple grand on it yet. Feel free to ask away though on anything home theater related as far as audio, video, or storage setup and use...

    Movie Video Audio Showcase

    I'll start posting lists when I have some time. I can break down audio further to be based on bass, surrounds, heights, or a combo of all of them. I'll do multiple posts for it since I'll break things down separately.

    THE WAY OF THE GUNN - DCU’S NEW ERA

    :yeahthat: Those were what I was thinking of since Joker is basically Taxi Driver. Even some of the blockbusters like Cuckoos Nest and Apocalypse Now are more similar to Joker than today's blockbusters. To me the 70s were great for those grittier movies being made by some of our best directors...

    THE WAY OF THE GUNN - DCU’S NEW ERA

    Do you guys like 70s movies? Joker is one in spirit to me. Similar tone, style, etc. It's probably still my favorite movie decade or at the the one I look back on most fondly. So that made me curious.

    THE WAY OF THE GUNN - DCU’S NEW ERA

    I'm with you for There Will Be Blood but we're not even close on Joker.

    THE WAY OF THE GUNN - DCU’S NEW ERA

    You thought Joker was awful??? We're talking the one with Phoenix as Joker right? It was the best DC related movie since The Dark Knight IMO.

    Super Bowl LVIII (58)

    Come on Cheese, you're a writer. Had to get the extra drama of Mahomes having to get a TD instead of just a FG to win it. The Chiefs drive wouldn't have been as intense without the 49er FG. It was the final obstacle in the hero's journey. ;)

    MCU: The Fantastic Four: First Steps

    I still don't like the casting of Pedro as Reed. It just feels off to me. He's a great actor but I'm not sure about him in this role. Kirby and Ebon I like a lot. Good casting. Joseph Quinn is intriguing. I've only seen him as Eddie Munson in ST and he stole the show. If that's typical...

    Twisters (aka Twister 2)

    You shouldn't need arc for this. ATV, Blu-ray, cable box plug into the AVR, then AVR to TV. The AVR is getting the audio directly from the player and the TV is only getting the video signal. There's no need for the return channel. It's only needed if you plugged the devices into the TV or...

    Twisters (aka Twister 2)

    I'm going to have to grab this if the Atmos is that good. Tornados make for great use of the heights. Have you watching Finch? The AppleTV movie with Tom Hanks? It has a tornado scene in it that's amazing for sound.

    Twisters (aka Twister 2)

    yeah, what @Covert Rain said. Your projector shouldn't matter. Your AVR and the player you use matter for Atmos. By player I mean either you UHD player or the streaming box you use. Like an AppleTV only supports lossy Atmos (E-AC-3) and not lossless Atmos (TrueHD Atmos) but Zidoo and Shield...

    Masters of the Air (2024 - AppleTV)

    Loved Hogan's Heroes. I've watched all of them and have the blu-rays ripped to my media server. I should start a rewatch. Been like 4 or 5 years now

    That's a given but I'm not wrong. :cheers:

    No TV deal for the dbacks this season

    What? That's crazy that I can't get the DBacks if I have the MLB sub. I get that every year since T-Mobile gives it as a perk. I assumed I could add the DBacks onto that this year. Guess it's time to figure out how to get my AppleTV to appear to be in another market so that I can use the main...

    Argylle (NO spoilers)

    So bad marketing. From what you said I get a feel it's similar to something like Jojo Rabbit or Fight Club where the trailers didn't do the actual movie justice.

    Argylle (NO spoilers)

    I haven't seen it yet but it sounds like it's been getting a thumbs up from everyone here. Anyone have any idea why it's bombing? I haven't really heard much on it one way or another. It's going be a lucky to hit $50m after it's 2nd weekend though which is a big oof for a movie with a $200m...

    MCU: The Marvels (Captain Marvel 2)

    I don't think she is. She's mid to me. Slightly above average face but let's just say Sir Mix-a-Lot isn't singing about her. Just not my cup. I know we have very different taste in women though. I'm not big on Phoebe Waller-Bridge either who I know you like.

    Masters of the Air (2024 - AppleTV)

    E4 was a little better. The french resistance stuff was great. I'd like to see more of that or even a show just on them. France gets a lot of flack for surrendering but the underground was unsung heroes. It wasn't all great though...

    No TV deal for the dbacks this season

    It also sucks that it's an extra fee on top of the regular At.Bat subscription for in market. Outside of AZ I can watch the games but in AZ I have to pay extra. That's frustrating.

    Super Bowl LVIII (58)

    Is the 80% of the number of bets or the money amount? I could see there being more bets for KC but the money being similar due to the 49ers being the silicon valley team. A $1000 bet cover 10 $100 ones.
