  • This is a long time coming. I am sorry it's 30 minutes but also not sorry. Took 6 hours to make this list and put a lot of thought into it. After doing this for 25 years I have heard some of the best demos. What I hear at CEDIA doesn't always impress me. There are so many hidden gems. I really hope you enjoy this video...if you don't...oh well I made it anyway lol.
    It's broken out in Best Atmos Demos, Best Surround Sound demos, Best Music demos, Best Movie Bass Demos. Some really cool stuff in there you may know, or may be new to you.
    I also take time setting up the demo. It's so important in doing a demo you set it up for the person you are sellign to or trying to impress with your system. Set up the scene. Tell them the cool things to look for.
    Enjoy

    Very solid list! I only have TFA on DTS master so now I'll be buying the 4k. I like how you separated good Atmos mixes from just good mixes in general. I love that you included Book of Eli and Open Range. When Kevin Costner shoots the shotgun in the bar, HOLY COW.
    I think the movie you were thinking of at the end was Unbroken. Such a good into scene.
    One LFE scene that no one ever talks about is the MUTO scene in (2014) Godzilla at 1:16. It has really good surround effects when the MUTO goes under the bridge. I demo that scene about as loud as I can handle.
    Since you're a SW fan, Star Wars: attack of the clones 1:06:25. The astroid scene is one of my favorite demos ever.
    One demo I never see on these lists is Toy Story 2, the into. Lots of bass and they include a lot of "Skywalker Sound" sound effects randomly haha. Not the 4k Dolby atmos mix, but the DTS master on the old blu ray, Disney ruined it with the 4k.
    I subscribed and I hope to see more of your favs as time goes on.

    For music, the new Queen live aid release is insane, Freddie's vocal perice the whole room, really gives you that "I am there" magic, great mixing. Super mario Bro's animated movie has some of the craziest bass I've heard, most of the movie, but the rainbow road race especially is killer. I actually had to turn my subs DOWN for once. Twister in Amos is pretty crazy, any of the tornado scenes, there are liek 3 or 4 of them. I always liked the Scene from True Lies when she drops the automatic down the stairs and it starts firing randomly. Probably my favorite scene on the lesser talked about list, the entire Lobby Scene in The Matrix, from the time they enter the government building til they blow up the helicopter, some of the best localization of bullit hits, and pumping bass from the sound track. Honerable mentions, the mini gun scene from T2, the automatic shot gun scene Terry Crews uses in Expendables Spiderverse and Across the spiderverse both rocked the bass department from start to finish, but especially the second one, thats another movie I had to turn my subs down for, just ridicules low end for scenes that probably didn't really need it lol. I mean everone says Dune 1/2 is a must, but I haven't experienced it yet. On a personal leval I love the shockwave scene from Star trek VI when Praxis blows up, that never gets old. and of course, flassic, the Opening of T2, credits, war, initial time bubble, all top notch. I use the pearl Harbor attack often enough too, but Middway does sound better.

    Man you got me fired up now! Going through my old DVD demo folder, some classics: Reactor activation scene Total recall, Terminator 3 the crane chase scene, toy Story 2 the buzz lightyear game opening sequence, Bad Boys 2 highway chase scene, Ballistic - Ecks vs sever Train Yard might be the highest explosions per minute clip there is, Chronicles of Riddick Landing sequence, Cradle to the Grave Helicopter and tank scene is pretty bad ass and funny, Disney's Dinosaur Opening scene & Asteroid impact, I Robot Tunnel Car Wreck, Cracking ice from opening of Ice Age, Matrix Revolutions City Breech has to win something just for the sheer number of bullets fired, The Patriot Field Battle scene, and actually not as old, but the reboot of Dredd, the gun scene when they lock the building down and fire alll the mini guns.

    Excellent work, great list!! The Greatest Showman is my current go to demo, as A LOT of people surprisingly haven't seen it. I will add 2 additional MUST haves "Twister" 4k for it's atmos. And an OFTEN overlooked home theater demo worthy gem "Speedracer" on blu ray. A movie I wish they would remaster in 4k HDR & ATMOS. It's a much better movie than it's ratings suggest. Both movies are great start to finish.

    It's such a well known everyone does it scene, but the intro to edge of tomorrow is still a will it break my subs test, especially the originally DTS mix, I think they netered it for the Atmos, least that's the consensus Um, heres a good one, Moonfall, silly movie, but pretty immersive especially when all hell is breaking loose twords the end of the de-orbit. Oh The Launch scene in Apollo 13! Watched that in an IMAX at the Kennedy space center...their subs couldn't handle it lol.

    Not sure how these stack up to your list, but I really like the first Thor movie that came out in 2011. When Thor and his buddies go to the ice planet somewhere in the first 15-20 minutes of the movie, they get surrounded by lightning and it's pretty cool. That whole movie has some really nice surround effects.
    I also like the Ready Player One first race scene. Some really good surround effects there where King Kong is running around.

    Sea Beast has lots of good surround and bass
    Fifth Element has some good bass
    Prince of Persia toward the end (about 1hr30min) when the sand is collapsing is lots of surround and good bass.
    I'll think of more soon.

    Sir, Great list of movies and music. Did you watch all of these vis KScape? If so, that's cheating! 😉 KScape surely has the best of everything via their environment. Better than 4k discs even. I'm envious of all of the Kscape owners, in many ways. Kscape with a proper system and proper room must be stellar! Like most families, I'm squeezing hard to get the last drop of performance out my very budget 7.2.4 system. The HT hobby is as much great fun as it is a reason to pull hair out by the handful.
