Default Which blu-ray to show off my audio

I need three recommendations for blu-rays to show off my new HT setup to my friends. I already own Transformers and Ironman so thats out. I hear Master and Commander is great. Any others? Is Baranka good for Audio?

Master and Commander is awesome.....


Who are these friends that demand three movie? and that these movies three be blu ray? Do they count to three, and are not satisfied on the one, nor the two? it is three, three movies on blu...... Or does the counting commence on three, and count down to one, with only a two in between?



Sorry... couldn't resist

And Saint Attila raised the hand grenade up on high, saying, 'O Lord, bless this Thy hand grenade that, with it, Thou mayest blow Thine enemies to tiny bits in Thy mercy.'

And the Lord did grin, and the people did feast upon the lambs and sloths and carp and anchovies and orangutans and breakfast cereals and fruit bats and large chu--

And the Lord spake, saying, 'First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin. Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three. Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then, lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.'

You can always look into the BD concerts (NIN and Dave Mathews are good) I also think Wall-E has good SQ for animated. You can also try Sweeney Todd it's kind of a musical and that will make your HT rip. I'm sure there will be much better suggestions so wait until you get a bunch of hit before you decide

funny story, this was WAY before blu but when i was working @ best buy when i was in high school (9 years already, holy crap), we had master and commander on a tv and surround to show off the sound. it came to one of the battles, a customer turned it up, and a cannon fired, an old lady half way down the aisle (a good 20 yards) ducks!!! i saw it happen!!

she turned around all bent out of shape. it was hilarious, i was almost on the ground in tears after it happend.

Stealth or Black Hawk Down. Master and Commander sounds great but looks like crap.

Listening to Spider-Man 3 again reminded me how good that is! The James Brown tune sounds incredible.

Baraka is not reference audio wise but one of the best looking blu's out.Master and Commander.. the more I watch it is probably my new favorite.Other coolness is Cloverfield and U-571.I see you have Pan's Labyrinth which is pretty good for its genre too.
