suggest a dvd to rent.

[harpomx]

I want to test out my roommates surround sound, and my new Trinitron Vega. Any dvd's you can think of that would be good for this? It would be even better if the actual movie was good too

If you haven't gotten it yet, T2: Ultimate Edition! My favorite DVD...and favorite movie, next to the 4 Star Wars movies.

 

[jinglingxl]

heard of "The Matrix" ?

 

[Sluggo]

Fried Green Tomatos.

 

[harpomx]

T2 was the first one we watched!!!
The Matrix would rule, but I've had it on my computer since a week before it came to theatres, so I've seen it hundreds of times.

Sluggo, you either
1. are joking
2. suck

Matrix

Does the DVD player or the receiver have DTS decoding? That would be an important thing to consider.

Blockbuster sucked. Nothing There. Went with Platoon.

 

[wviperw]

Matrix is always good. Or maybe Perfect Storm?

 

[Mday]

tarzan, the animation there rocked.
most anime titles.

pr0n ;-)

 

[IamDavid]

Gotta try Gladiator..

 

[ForeverSilky]

Mallrats.

 

[zbalat]

Fight Club and/or Matrix.

 

[harpomx]

Finished watching platoon, was pretty good on surround sound with the choppers and firefights. I'd actually never seen it before, pretty damn good movie.

Thanks for all the suggestions, I was thinking about most of the ones you all mentioned, but I was quite limited by the fact that the Blockbuster near me sucks royal d1@k. I was deciding between Platoon, Face Off, Apocalypse Now and Enemy of the State. Trust me, those were the best choices available to me.

If you think you're going to be renting a lot of DVD's, try Netflix. All you need is a credit card and a mailing address. You pay like $20.00 and they'll send you 4 DVD's at a time. You can keep them as long as you want. You can rent 1 in a month or 40, there's no limit.

 

[starlitt]

Rain Man
Sleepy Hollow
Bowfinger
Jaws
Contact
SpaceBalls
FARGO
Godzilla 2000?
