Surround moments in lossless you are looking forward to - Blu-ray Forum

davcole · 08-24-2008, 03:15 PM

For me the most exciting aspect of BD is finally being able to enjoy lossless surround. Of course we've all chosen our favorite soundtracks and surround moments on what's been released.

I'm wondering what lossless surround moments you are looking forward to? Here's some on my short list:

LORD OF THE RINGS trilogy- not necessarily for all the action moments like you'd think, but to hear the beauty of Howard Shore's score. Moments like the Rohan theme, the Gondor theme, Golum's theme and of course the Nazgul's are what's got me excited.

LEGENDS OF THE FALL- again for the score as I feel this is Horner's best work. I think one of the highlight moments for me is his score for the battle scene, particularily where the Samuel character meets his fate. I can only hope that like the Deluxe Edition DVD we can get a soundtrack score.

AMADEUS- Mozart in lossless surround? Yeah that's the reason why!

STAR WARS- Episode one for the podrace, Episode two for the explosions around the asteroid, Episode III for the opening space battle.

LAST OF THE MOHICANS for the score and the attack on the fort.

So what's on your list?

Three words for you....

Saving Private Ryan

Good call on Legends of the Fall!

This belongs to either the Wishlist thread or the Movies thread since it does not discuss movies ALREADY on BD.

Ok it's more than just the music for LORD OF THE RINGS...lol.

Moments i'm looking forward to are:

The shriek of the Nazgul, particularily in the first film.
The Balrog (also the chorus during that segment)
The Battle at Helm's Deep
The attack of the trees
The battle of Pleanor
The flying wringraths
The ghost in the cave

the texas chainsaw massacre (re-make) trailer ! when it goes black and all you can hear is the loud thumping footsteps going around the room and right behind your ears.

The DTS DVD has such a huge step up from the Dolby DVD most everyone has - my walls shake!

I have the DTS disc too and it's amazing to say the absolute least. Can you imagine how this will sound in PCM or DTS-HDMA?

Zemecki's Contact and What Lies Beneath. Bird's The Incredibles. Scott's Gladiator. Singer's X-Men 2. Jackson's King Kong. Spielberg's Saving Private Ryan, E.T. and Minority Report. Fincher's Fight Club and Se7en. Mitchell's Hedwig And The Angry Inch.

Star Wars EPI - Podrace and Qui-Gon, Obi-Wan, and Maul fight.
Star Wars EPII - Opening, Astroid field scene and Battle of Geonosis.
Star Wars EPIII - Opening with drums thumping as the Republic ship passes the screen (I get goose bumps thinking about it). End battle with Anakin and Obi-Wan (Yoda & Palps too) with the score blazing and lightsabers whooshing. PERFECT!

The Matrix - Lobby Scene all the way up to the helicopter crash.
Reloaded - Freeway chase.
Revolutions - Dock breach and Neo Smith fight.
Animatrix - Flight of the Osiris.

LOTR FOTR - Opening battle and fight with the Balrog.
LOTR TTT - March of the Ents.
LOTR ROTK - Ride of the Rohirrim.

L.A. Confidential - Shoot out at the end.

Serenity - At the beginning, when the ship descends on the planet and end battle.

Transformers - When Blackout levels the military base. Optimus Prime Vs Bonecrusher.

Toy Story 2 - Opening.

And, as mentioned, Titanic, JP, and SPR.

Apocylypse Now: Chopper Attack
Das Boot: When they go to deep I can't imagine the sqweeling and sqweeking
Terminator 2: Hell practically any action scene
Top Gun: I know it's already out but need for speed chapter DTS-MA

davcole · 09-02-2008, 01:25 PM

Honestly we need STARGATE redone in lossless audio for the Stargate sequence.

diamondfoxxx · 09-02-2008, 04:03 PM

The shoot-out in 'Heat'.

jhawkjd · 09-25-2008, 08:01 PM

Add 1 more to the list of movies deserving blu-ray lossless DTS-HDMA treatment. The Red Violin. (The original dvd was released with a DTS soundtrack which sounded great, but was re-released with just a DD5.1 which was pretty lackluster.)

Amadeus, Last of the Mohicans and The Red Violin all won Oscars for music or sound. All would be AWESOME in DTS-HDMA!

Well, if you haven't already picked up L.A. Confidential on Blu you are in for a real treat for the gunfight at the end. It sounds awsome.
