Title: Videofiles, what do you put on to show off your gear?
Post by: alanp on October 29, 2009, 04:17:09 PM
For those of you with HDTV sets, what do you put on when your non-techie friends visit?  When I got a DVD/Surround Sound setup, I put on Terminator 2 and Phantom Menace.  The

I've got this Roku box and when I take it to my parents house (They have a HDTV) and I'm trying play something in HD that is impressive.  They don't get HD programming.  Most of the HD movies in the Netflix instant movies are not special effects filled action films.  I can rent something from Amazon but not sure what would look pretty on this....

Any suggestions?

I put on the Blue Ray version of 'Planet Earth' - the documentary series.  It is very visually stunning.

One of the most visually stunning movies to me is What dreams may come.
