I know there have been multiple threads on the first dvd you ever watched but what about the first dvd you watched after upgrading a part of your home theatre.

I'm getting my Sony 50" LCD WEGA TV delivered today at 3. After setting everything up and setting the options the way I like them I plan to watch fight club.

What was the last thing you upgraded in your home theatre and what was the first thing you watched after the upgrade?

Fellowship of the Ring was the first flick I watched when I got my surround sound system set up.

When testing out the 16x9 mode of the Toshiba set I bought last year, I used The Two Towers: EE.

When I got my new 42" Plasma a few weeks ago, I tried out T2 Ultimate edition first.

SoSpacey

after i broke in my HSU sub, the first movie I tested it to was U-571...of course.

Maxflier

The new Top Gun dvd was the first one i watched when i recently upgraded to 6.1 surround sound.

When i upgrade to a 16x9 tv in a few months i think the first thing i will watch will probably be Episodes I and II to get ready for III coming out.

I think the first movie I watched when I got my surround sound system this past christmas was the matrix, which conincidentally was my first ever dvd.

ShagMan

I like to use one of the LOTR titles or Top Gun...

however, the first DVD I used to check out my most recent DVD player was Iron Giant, since animated titles can more easily show problems with interlaced/non-interlaced/quality.

It was either "The Matrix" or a boot "Star Wars: A New Hope" with DTS.

I just got my 62" Mitisubishi tv and the first thing I watched was Lord of the Rings Retutn of the King and it was pretty awesome. Bought all the speakers last year at tax time so I was set. Don't remember first movie listened to.

Numes

I'm not sure what movie I watched after I got my stereo, that was 4-5 years ago. I got a 62" Mitsubishi in November. The first DVD I watched was Hellboy: Director's Cut.

Master Shake 05

Last upgrade: New Panasonic DVD/VHS Player (beustiful)

First Movie: Kill Bill Vol. 1 + Kill Bill Vol. 2

OldBoy

you have both films via seamless branching? bet that would fetch a nice price on the Bay.

Master Shake 05

um, nah but i count them as one...stupid miramax...

QuiGonJosh

lame...

Shannon Nutt

Same title I used when I got my 55" Mitsubishi at Thanksgiving of 2003.

eiker_ir

when i got my new TV i put in Terminator 2 UE, the menus alone looked awesome hehe

danicus007

First movie was Pirates of the Carribean on my 47" Panny.

When I upgraded to 6.1 I played The Running Man: SE. Awesome use of the Rear Center Speaker.

Nesbit

Looks like my first film will be changed to Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas in memorial of the good doctor.

When I got my 230-W DD 5.1 surround system in early '02, I think the first DVD I tried with it was Star Wars: Episode I.

Sometime in this year, I'd like to upgrade my DD 5.1 system to a DTS 6.1 system. There's a 700-W Yamaha system that I've been eyeing for a few months for around $400 or so.

When I received my panasonic 42" plasma and setup my HT-920 htib i remember watching KillBill v1

paulringodaman

I remember watching "Plains, Trains, and Automobiles" as the first movie ever on my home theater. Yes, it didn't take "advantage" of the sound and digital picture, but it is one of my favorites. (Especially during Thanksgiving when I purchased the TV).

lopper

The first DVD I watched after upgrading to a 47" WS TV and progressive scan player was This is Spinal Tap.

dyevin

when i went to 6.1 i used gladiator.

when i get my projector it will be a toss up between:
the thin red line
das boot superbit

seven
