Saving private ryan isnt that good.....

Not sure about the theater, but on DVD it lacks the punch that other films can give.

The film is shiiite but Attack of the clones. :eek:

When I had it on my G500 it started to make the walls shake :D

It didn't win any awards, but the DVD version of Solider has a great surround soundtrack.

Terminator 2. Some of the best sound design ever, imo.

The Bourne movies make good use of sound effects in my opinion.

If you like horror movies, The Exorcist has some great audio.
The Version You Have Never Seen has a little better audio but that version blows (except for that creepy ass spider walk)

Imagine my shock when I went to the movie and had no clue what it was about. :p And then came the "Omaha beach". You should listen to an expensive home theater to really appreciate the sound of "Saving Private Ryan"

One of my favorite tracks in a video game ever is "on your side" on terminator for the sega cd. Is something like that in the movie, too?

I don't know whether they created it for the game or if it was also in the movie, too.

Ahhhh glad you guys like Soldier. Proba one of my fav movies. Also great sound in Gladiator, Matrix, LOTR, V for Vendetta, Starwars. did Narnia have good sound? i dont remember. Terminator had amazing sound, as did Black Hawk Down, also the professional had nice sound.

Oh and the soundtrack for HL2 and Ep.1 :D
