your reference dvd

I go Blu-ray for that, if you are still using a DVD for this, you are behind the times!

I like X Man III as the scene when they show Xavier University has some amazing detail and colors, a great video demo.

For audio, I have people just watch a film, I am so over the explosion demos, let's face it, any good subwoofer can do an explosion, I am more impressed by the minute details that become clear with the new uncompressed codecs.

The Dark Knight.

Polar Express during the holidays!!!

James Taylor Live at The Beacon..

Music videos. Big explosions demos are lame. I like diana krall in paris for something subtle or plant page 2003 version of Kashmir with the full turkish orchestra. It is a shockingly cool performance.

I second the Concert DVD's. Eric Claptons guitar festival from 2004. Also his latest Cream concert from 2005. For movies, all the pixar movies look and sound great, especially Nemo and the Incredibles. The Lord of the Rings Series, especially the 3rd one will impress.
