Never focused on a particular scene ... Maybe something from Cars? I'm not sure. Interesting question though!

The scene in live free or die hard, where McClane goes to arrest the hacker and the shootout errupts between mcclane and the assasins, it sounds and looks awesome.

My favorite scene to show off is the colorful intro for Casino Royale, love the song and the graphics look almost 3D

i use topgun for my refernce material. the soundtrack is awesome, its a 20+ yr old movie that definately benefits highly from bluray, and the scenes with them dogfighting in the air, ie giving the MIG the finger, are awesome and even make my mother,who hates surround sound sit and say how real it all feels....i think she has a soft spot for that crazy son of a b*tch Tom Cruise. lol

Agreed, really any daytime action scene from transformers works very well for sound and PQ. My favorite would probably be the epic urban battle at the end.

Just curious, I see this a lot. I love TDK, but what about that first bank scene makes it demo quality? I really enjoyed the scene as an intro to the Joker, but not so great from an a/v standpoint.
