My Top 10 Movies For Subwoofer Lovers
Thursday August 24, 2006 | Permalink
I'm a really big subwoofer fan. I don't think there's a more important speaker in an audio system when it comes to conveying the raw feeling of a movie. With that said, I'd like to present my top 10 movies that have kick-ass bass.
Tell me what you think and don't be shy to add your own.
10. Man on Fire. If you love seeing bad people get what's coming to them, then this movie is for you. Kick-ass acting by Denzel.
9. Battlestar Galactica Mini-Series (2003). Not really a movie, but when it comes to a TV show with awesome sound and effects, BSG definitely has it.
8. The Matrix Trilogy. The fight scene between Morpheus and Neo (The Matrix) and the highway chase scene (Matrix: Reloaded) when Trinity escapes with the Keymaker on the motorcycle. Very nice.
7. Terminator 3. Any of the chase scenes, and the bassy music when the sexy TX is driving around in the stolen Lexus.
6. The Incredibles.
5. Underworld. C'mon, Kate Beckinsale... in leather... with guns! Oh yeah -- subwoofers. The gunfight in the subway has excellent gunfire low-frequencies.
4. The Hills Have Eyes (2006) This movie has a lot of what I'd call low-frequency "mutant-freak grunge" -- music that drives home the creepy result of those 1950's nuclear tests. The unrated version is really gory. That makes it good.
3. Master and Commander. The opening battle scene is awesome.
2. War of the Worlds (Tom Cruise edition) - A lot of people didn't like this movie. I was disappointed to see a little too much realism in the mob scene where Tom and Co. loose their van, but otherwise it had really good bass.
1. The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. I LOVE the sound of the Ents (tree people) walking around.
